My View of Monday Night.....

I have tried over and over to understand what it is about the Falcons that keeps this team in the hunt. I've only watched two of their games this season the blowout against 49ers and the late nighter against the Bears. I've come away virtually unimpressed with any particular aspect of the team. I mean I just don't get it.....they have a QB that turns it over, an inconsistent running game and a defense that could use a Jason David upgrade (wait a minute they aren't that bad...LOL). At least last year they had a rookie QB that wouldn't make mistakes and a 1600 yard rusher....so what is it about the Falcons. I've come away with this. The Falcons won't wow you with their statistical production but they will show up and play a solid game.....if you play a good game you will usually be victorious (Cowboys)...if you play average or sub par they can squeeze out a win (Bears & Dolphins).

I break it down like this

The Saints have no reason to lose to the Falcons! Except for the dreaded rivalry factor but here's why I don't think that matters....the Saints will be in primetime for the first time this season. The lights will be on and the Dome will have a playoff game type intensity. There is no statistical comparison in the two teams ( Saints far superior in just about every cat.) so I won't do one. I gonna judge this one purely of my gut!!!!! My gut is usually good for the bookey and bad for me......LOL! I'm looking for the Falcons to hold on strong early playing off emotion for some reason I see the Saints settling for a few FG.....I don't know why. But I think the Saints win comfortably 37-17 just because it's gonna take a huge effort by the Falcons to win in Brees' Play House.
Lionheart wasn't enough................................................
The Jets didn't fly high enough........................................
And the Giants weren't big enough...................................

Overall the pride of the Black and Gold faithful will not let this team lose a primetime home game. Saints come away 7-0 the super talk and the bandwagon continue to grow.

WHO DAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
