Falcons at Saints: Monday Night Football Picks
Posted by: | CommentsDivisional matchups have been the order so far this season on Monday Night Football and this week the Atlanta Falcons are in New Orleans to close off the Week 8 NFL betting card. It’s the first meeting of the season for these two NFC South rivals who split the series in 2008 with the home side winning each contest straight-up and against the spread.
The undefeated Saints (6-0) are one of only two remaining team in the league with a perfect record after the Denver Broncos lost on Sunday in Baltimore (Indianapolis (7-0) is also perfect after an 18-14 win vs. San Francisco). You can check all of Sunday’s scores and recaps at ESPN.com
For the sports betting community, if you are looking at betting on an undefeated team this late in the season, it means you’re going to be laying points, probably a lot of them. That is the case in this matchup, as the online sportsbooks pegged the Saints as double-digit favourites.
The Saints have been attracting a lot of the betting action throughout the week, as the line has moved all the way up to -12. Online sportsbook SPORTSBETTING.com reported 78% of all the betting volume on the Monday nighter had come in on New Orleans as of late Sunday night.
NFL Trends: Road favorites in Week 7 were 7-0 SU/ATS including the Patriots at Tampa Bay, even though it was neutral site game, and it wasn’t by small margins that the chalk teams were winning or covering, either. San Diego, Indianapolis, Green Bay and the New York Jets won by a combined margin of 132 points – that’s 30.5 points per game!
Results this Sunday (Week 
by big home favorites like the Colts and Chargers, who both won straight-up but failed to cover the big spreads, did little to sway bettors away from New Orleans and it could have something to do with the Saints performance last week in Miami.
Trailing 24-3, the Saints offense went to work while the defense stymied the Wildcat and New Orleans made a statement. Starting with a QB Drew Brees rushing TD in the final seconds of the first-half, New Orleans went on a 43-3 run lasting 28 minutes to cement the win and become the first NFL team in history to score 45-plus points in four of their first six games.
Atlanta was in Dallas last week and learned what an explosive offense can do when the Cowboys put up 37 points – the most points the Falcons have allowed in the Mike Smith-Matt Ryan era. Recent success, or lack thereof, by double-digit favorites on Monday Night has done little to sway the tide of bettors from New Orleans, but since Week 6, 2006 there have been 10 double-digit favorites and they are just 2-8 ATS.
This is the seventh divisional Monday Night game of the 2009 season and favorites through the first six games are 4-2 SU but only 2-4 ATS. All six games have gone “Over” the posted total and in fact the only Monday Night game this season that did not land on the high side was Carolina at Dallas in Week 3.
The posted total for Atlanta-New Orleans is one of the highest bettors will see in the NFL but if the Saints keep scoring the way they have been, it could be a sign of things to come.
NFL Picks: Looking at the matchup, I’m going to be taking the big points and hoping the Falcons can keep this one close. Good luck with your bets on the big game.
It’s as simple as that! Even though the sports betting industry is replete with systems and schemes, Sportsbetting.com appears to be the real deal and should be closely examined by all online sports bettors. An excellent way to stay one step ahead of other bettors and to be on top of the success chart is to stay well-informed of the latest sports betting news.http://www.sportsbetting.com
Patriots Vs. Saints: Monday Night Football Live Picks
Posted by: | CommentsPlanning a Super Bowl party this year? You might want to use this weekâs Monday Night Football matchup as a good opportunity for a trial run, as could be watching a Super Bowl preview.
The Saints (10-0) are in the midst of the best season in franchise history and the Pats, short of a fourth quarter choke at Indianapolis two weeks ago, seem poised to challenge for another title in February.
The offensive explosiveness possessed by each team has forced online sportsbook to post a total of 56.5 and still the sports betting public is wagering on the “Over”, as many sportsbooks are reporting heavy action on the high side.
New Orleans averages 420 yards per game and 36.9 points. Itâs down from their record breaking average of 39-plus points per game the team rode until Week 7 but still more than five points greater than the second place Minnesota Vikings.
New England ranks second in average yardage per game at 416 and with the best one-two wide receiver combinations in the league, the Pats can stretch the field against the greatest of defenses. Wes Welker had a super game against the Jets last week catching 15 balls for 192 yards. Welker makes blitzing Brady a real challenge for teams. His short underneath game sets up the long ball for Randy Moss. Moss is pretty much impossible to cover one-on-one and when he gets the double team, it usually creates a mismatch for Welker.
The Saints receiving corps is almost as impressive with Marques Coltson, Devery Henderson, Jeremy Shockey and Robert Meachem. Speaking of matchup problems, these four receivers will present some for the Patriots secondary. The Saints are hoping Reggie Bush can go coming off a knee injury. The early reports have him playing and if he is ready he can be a difference-maker, but usually plays a secondary role in the offense most games (ainât that right Fantasy players).
This is a great coaching matchup with maybe the two brightest coaches in the game matching wits for the first time. Sean Payton is as creative an offensive coach as Belichick is a defensive strategist. Donât expect Belichick to go for a 4th and short deep in his own end in this game but expect some interesting wrinkles from both coaches.
And of course the field generals need no introduction, with Tom Brady and Drew Brees probably guaranteeing this game gets the highest ratings of the regular season. Brady has more experience in winning the big game but the Saints have been charging hard all year and not one team has been able to top Breesâ offense to date.
Both teams have consistent, not spectacular, run games and while each squad has shown vulnerabilities on defense this year we have to expect them to bring their A-game to the dome on Monday Night.
NFL Picks: Pats vs. Saints – After breaking this one down, Iâm making a bet on the home team New Orleans Saints laying 1-point. I think they will have a little more success moving the ball, and also get a couple of key stops from their defense.
Enjoy the big Monday Night Football game.
Saints Vs Patriots : Monday Night Football Watch Live
Posted by: | CommentsSaints Vs Patriots : Monday Night Football Watch Live:The Monday Night game has all the makings of a classic shootout as the New England Patriots take on the New Orleans Saints. These two teams feature two of the premiere quarterbacks in the NFL and offenses that can score points in a hurry. New Orleans opened up as a 3 point home favorite earlier in the week but sharp wise guy action has come in on New England plus the points.
New England ranks second in the NFL in total yards per game and 3rd in the league in points per game. They are averaging 416 yards of offense per contest and a whopping 29 points a game. Their passing attack is dangerous as ever now that Tom Brady is back playing at a very high level.
He has two great weapons in Randy Moss and Wes Welker. Also, New England is starting to run the ball much more effectively with Laurence Moroney playing well, making this team even more explosive. Statistically, New Orleans is a middle of the road defense.
They rank 17th in total yards and 13th in points allowed. Furthermore, their secondary is giving up 214 yards a game through the air. The Saints’ defense has been hampered with injuries in recent weeks, particularly in the secondary. They are expected to get some key players back for Monday night’s game but they will have to play much better in order to win this game.
As for the New Orleans offense, they are the best in the NFL both in total yards and points per game. Drew Brees can beat you with his arm and the plethora of weapons he has at the wide receiver position or the Saints can pound the rock with Pierre Thomas and Mike Bell.

The loss to the Cowboys last night should be their wake-up call for the Saints, anyway, can the Saints still possibly make it to the Super Bowl? if not, can the win the rest of their regular-season games? once the playoffs start, who do you think can upset them in the Playoffs?
I mean can they win the rest of their regular season games? maybe I should just rephrase it into one question, which other team has the best chance to beat the Saints? I hope the Saints can go to the Super Bowl and win it, but I’m worried.
Monday Night in the Big Easy: Falcons take on the Saints in New Orleans
Posted by: | CommentsAfter a bad loss in Dallas, the Falcons travel to New Orleans to battle their NFC South higher-ups, who happen to be playing Super Bowl-caliber football. Can Atlanta spoil Reggie Bushâs 16-0 prediction in week 8 under the Monday Night lights in the Superdome?
Falcons on Offense
Golden boy Matt Ryan seemed to be picking up where he left off as a rookie until he hit an obstacle in the form of the Cowboys last week. Prior to the Falconsâ visit to Cowboy Stadium, Ryan had steered his team to 4 impressive wins by spreading the ball and playing smart football. Last week, the Cowboys picked Ryan off twice, forced 2 fumbles, and sacked him 4 times. This week, heâll have to deal with the pressures of facing an amped-up Saints D in a chaotic Monday Night setting in the Superdome. The Saints will try to shut down Michael Turner early and force Ryan to pass, which will be tough given how good the Saints are at blitzing and getting to the QB. When facing pressure, Ryan should look for his new buddy Tony Gonzalez, whose 6-5 245-pound frame can be scary in the open field. As Atlantaâs leading receiver, Roddy White has been successful getting open and should be available for the occasional long ball. The Falconsâ offensive success lies heavily on the O-line to pick up pass-rushers and buy Ryan time in a hostile environment. Then thereâs the added challenge of playing a defense that leads the league in interceptions (13); young Ryan could very well be the victim of yet another Darren Sharper takeaway.
Saints on Offense
The Saints did not play a complete football game last week by any means, but they dominated the 2nd half. Brees and co. anchored a 21-point comeback and posted 36 points in the 2nd half. And granted, Brees did not have a great passing day (22-58 with 3 interceptions), but he rushed for 2 touchdowns and found a way to win. New Orleansâ #1 offense will be a handful for a shaky Falcon defense. After the Saints practically slept through the first half of last weekâs game, Coach Sean Payton will be out for blood early with his aggressive play calling. Aside from an arsenal that features Marques Colston and Jeremy Shockey in the passing attack, and Pierre Thomas and Reggie Bush in the ground game, New Orleansâ offense runs on Brees and his linemen. Indeed, teams have had little success pressuring Brees, which is partly because of his quick release and partly because of his O-lineâs dominance. Donât expect the Falcons to be any different; Brees should have his way feeding top dogs Colston and Shockey, among others. New Orleansâ 3-headed monster backfield will have their presence felt, lead by Pierre Thomas, Mike Bell, and Mr. Everything himself- Reggie Bush.
Despite facing harsh conditions, the Falcons will go toe to toe with the leagueâs best and put up some points. But New Orleansâ offense will overwhelm Atlanta with its countless number of weapons and the Saints will carry out Bushâs prediction at least this week.
Prediction
New Orleans 40
Atlanta 27
I am currently a senior at Fordham University and studying Economics. I am helping to work on a new sports prediction website called superpredictors.com. I write articles and provide analysis for the site. I live in New York City.
Personally, I did not get to see all of the game, I only saw the 4th quarter, anyway, what was up with the Saints last night?

Monday Night NFL Football Betting Picks: Falcons at Saints
Posted by: | Comments
On Monday Night, the Falcons will battle the division rival Saints. The Saints are perfect not only straight up this season, but also come in perfect against the spread at 6-0. The Saints are double digit favorites, with the current line showing a -12 at sports books on the net. The total sits at 55 points, as this game may see some fireworks with two high powered offenses.
BetRepublic.com is the place to find the Monday night NFL Football Betting picks in the Saints vs Falcons game and our 2008 award winner.
The Saints have scored nearly 40 points per game on average. The Falcons are not nearly at that many points on average as they show a low 24 per game on average compared to the Saints. The differential in points scored and allowed shows the Saints at a +18 and Atlanta +5. The betting line shows the near differential in those numbers(13).
As a betting expert, I just can not see Atlanta getting destroyed in a must win division game. On the road or not means nothing in division games. Atlanta has every capability to win this game and I think after the Saints huge comeback win and after the bye, they are way over-valued in this Monday Night contest.
The Falcons have followed up against the spread losses with wins in their following contest. They have been a very reasonable bounce back team, and should put up more than a fight in New Orleans. The Falcons are 8-1 against the spread in their last 9 games following a S.U. loss. The Falcons are 5-1 against the spread in their last 6 games after allowing more than 350 total yards in their previous game. They are also as mentioned solid after an against the spread loss going 8-2 against the spread in their last 10 games following a ATS loss.
