I jumped on the opener at 10. I know the Saints are the best team in the league but I have to take double digits in a division matchup. Both teams know each other well & historically regardless of records, they play close & high scoring games. Getting 2 possessions is huge as the backdoor potential is there.
I am shocked it has already jumped to 12.5

The thing is Saints will eventually come out flat.
Very little to gain by winning big and they start thinking about the playoffs and avoiding injury. Sure they play but don’t dive head first against a charging RB the same way.
IMO the media hypes the home field advantages, but most players deep in their hearts don’t buy it. They just think get into the playoffs and win.
If Saints come out again like today they’ll beat Falcons by 24-30 even with a back door Ryan TD or two.

There are just better games to play out there. The Saints are crushing everyone right now. Yes, they will come out one week flat but who knows which week that's going to be? The Saints beat the Falcons at their home field, now they go back to New Orleans. It's either a play on the Saints or no play. Watching the Falcons lately, I couldn't take them. Game is a pass.
Saints covered their last two games by over 30. How often has that ever happened? Now they have to win this game by12 or more. Now that I think about it I might like it. When you overproduce against the spread that dominantly.....there tends to be a letdown of sorts. Blah.....I'll think about it later lol
