The line on the New Orleans Saints vs. Atlanta Falcons game was set at Saints -3. New Orleans is 5-1 versus the Falcons in their last six meetings. Atlanta lost 9-24 to the Saints two weeks ago but have won three of their last four games overall following a rough start.
New Orleans (9-2) has won eight games in a row to take a 2 1/2-game lead over Tampa Bay atop the NFC South and a one-game lead over Green Bay atop the conference. They pay out $600 for every $100 bet to win the Super Bowl.
Taysom Hill made his first start of the season in place of an injured Drew Brees in that last game against Atlanta. He passed for 233 yards and ran for two touchdowns in that game.
Hill will again start in this game was Brees offered a glimmer of hope as to when he would likely return.
The Saints QB sat down with COX Sports New Orleans’ Mike Nabors this past Sunday following the Saints’ victory over Denver.
“I feel better than I did last week,” Brees said. “I feel better every day and I’m gradually ramping things up with what I’m able to do. Just understanding that there is just a healing process that has to take place. But man, I’m pushing it. I’m trying to be back as fast as I can.”
Brees suffered a fractured rib, which generally takes six weeks to heal. This leads us to the Week 16 game against the Vikings. Should the Saints be well positioned enough for the Playoffs, it is likely we won't see Brees until the Playoffs.
The Saints lead the NFL in total defense (284.9 yards per game).
"The biggest challenge is getting your butts kicked the first time and having to bounce back," said Falcons interim head coach Raheem Morris, who has led Atlanta to a 4-2 record since replacing the fired Dan Quinn. "You have to look yourself in the mirror and be honest with yourself, (make sure) they know the facts and why it happened."
Last Sunday, Atlanta rebounded with a 43-6 thrashing of Las Vegas, taking the ball away from the Raiders five times.
