NFL : 2* ATLANTA
The Falcons have dominated this series cashing the ticket in 18 of the last 25 including 10 of 12 in NO. The Falcons have wrapped up a home field bye thru the 1st round so Michael Vick sightings may be rare today. Vick is nursing a sore shoulder so Matt Schaub may get the start.
The R out of UVA has thrown only 7 passes this season for 9 yards and a pick. These Birds are 11-3 SU and have clinched the 3rd division title in team history thanks to the new $130,000,000 man the aforementioned Vick. Warrick Dunn has 922 yards and 8 TD while the hobbled Alge Crumpler has 774 yards and 6 TD.
The Saints have won 2 straight games and find themselves tied with Carolina and St. Louis for the NFC Wildcard. They close the season next week in Carolina. NO is a dismal 2-5 SU 1-6 ATS in the Dome. They’ll face the #10 team in the league when it comes to stopping the run as Atlanta is allowing less than 103 YPG.
New Orleans is 0-3 as a chalk this season and in their last couple of home losses they’ve given up 66 points against Denver and the Panthers. Atlanta will have to deal with Vick’s cousin Aaron Brooks today as well as Joe Horn who has 1248 yards (#2) with 10 TD.
