You'd think I'd like it @ -2.5 or even -2 if you can get it, but I don't know. Most books have the Saints -3. On the one hand, you'd think this will be a cakewalk for us. But our history with the Falcons is complicated even though Coach Payton mostly owns them. We beat that ass 2 weeks ago, but I expect a different game. We've been after Ryan the last 2 games (17 sacks between them I think), and that shouldn't change. But we have lots of injuries (Janoris Jenkins, PRob, Davenport, etc.), and I'm not sure we'll be able to either cover as well as usual or get to Ryan as fast. Everyone knows the Falcons can put up points. OTOH, I'd say our #1 defense is pretty damn good. We've only given up 1 TD in the last 4 games and have improved to #1 in Total Defense (5th in passing and 1st in Rushing; also 5th in PPG).
Lots of signs lead to a big bet on the Saints. Here are some points:
4-1 ATS last 5 8-0 straight up last 8 5-1 ATS last 6 vs. Atlanta 5-1 straight up last 6 vs. Atlanta 11-1 straight up last 12 on the road
Atlanta has been decent ATS and straight up recently. Both teams have good recent December records ATS as well. If we had Brees, I'd say go for it because we'll probably get that sweep. But it's Atlanta. And I've watched 80 or 90 of these games over the years, and i'd be inclined to only bet lightly because of that.
There could be some value in the Under though. O/U is 46.5
1) Saints under 4 of last 5 2) Atlanta under 4 of the last 5 3) Under 6 of last 7 Saints/Falcons matchups
The counter is that the total has gone over in 5 of last 6 Saints December games. Me? I'd probably take the Saints straight up and also the under. Maybe I'd spot the points if there was a 3rd bet I really liked this week and take that parlay.

Two weeks ago the falcons didn't really have any film on Starting QB Hill so I'm curious what their defensive game plan will be now that they've seen it. Dont see Hill getting 2 rushing TDs again

He did it two weeks in a row making him the first QB since Eric Hipple (Lions) did it in 1981, 39 years ago. That almost seems crazy with some of the great running qbs or qbs who could run when necessary that we had after Hipple. Idk what they are going to do. Not a chance we play the same offensive gameplan we utilized against the Broncos last week, but I could see us still leaning on the rushing attack. Just the same, I have a lot of the same questions about Hill I raised 2 weeks ago - can he come back, can he complete passes he’s got to complete, etc. regardless I played him in fantasy in the league I’m in 9th and have a must win game and help from one other team.

I'm on track to make the playoffs in 5 of my 8 leagues, with an outside shot at a 6th. Though 2 of the 3 that I'm not making it (or have an outside shot at) are the ones I care about most. My favorite dynasty league team this year has just tanked - 4-8 with a loss coming today, so 4-9 and either 3rd or 4th pick in the rookie draft. I am going to have to rebuild that team, I think.

I was lucky to have a wave of bad shit happen and tanked for Murray year one, but I'm still sort of in a just outside the top/not bad enough to really tank, and a bunch of people are fighting to be the worst rn so I jumped on some guys
