NFL SUNDAY EARLY GAME REVIEW – NO v ATL

Saints head to Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta and look to upset the slightly favored Falcons, here’s what we expect.

Saints (2-1) @ Falcons (1-2)

OPENING MARKETS
Head to Head Saints $2.02 (+102) – Falcons $1.83 (-120)
Spread Falcons -1.5
Over / Under 42.5
Team Totals 20.5 Saints 21.5 Falcons

MARKET MOVEMENT
Head to Head Saints $2.26 (+126) – Falcons $1.67 (-149)
Spread Falcons -2.5
Over / Under 40.5
Team Totals 19.5 Saints 21.5 Falcons

Money coming in for the Falcons has pushed the spread a point and firmed up from $1.83 (-120) to $1.67 (-149) in the head to head market. Expect to see more money coming for the Falcons.

SAINTS
The Saints will want to expose the Falcons run D and get back to the “stretch” offense run plays in a Kubiak philosophy system which wreaked havoc on Dallas and Carolina in week 1 and 2. Falcons run D has given up over 100 yards rushing three weeks straight.

SAINTS STATS and MARKETS TO FOLLOW
Alvin Kamara Rushing Over 62.5 $1.90 (-111)

FALCONS
Falcons overall D has been good while only allowing 22, 21 and 18 against current in form teams, but we expect Cousins to have to throw the ball here again to have some chance of winning.

FALCONS STATS and MARKETS TO FOLLOW
Kirk Cousins Passing Yards over 217.5 $1.90 (-111)

OUR PREDICTION >> Cousins still hasn’t passed our early season assessment of him, and if the Falcons want to take control of this highly competitive division then it’s a must win at home and Cousins ability under pressure is still highly questionable. Falcons get the job done at home Cousins gets Over 217.5 passing yards.
