I'm so torn on this game. I don't think the Falcons will win more than 5-6 games all year (Sweet baby Jesus give us Will Anderson) but it's game 1, at home, against the damned Saints.

I dunno how to call this one and not even sure Drake London is playing for ATL. If he's out or not even 90%, I think we take an easy L by 6 or so. If he's active and near 100%, it's an even shot. Could see it 50/50.

Any predictions?
I'm gonna say an absolutely UGLY game from both sides and we all wanna burn our eyeballs. Drake London is a GO but gets yanked in the 3rd qtr as his injury is nagging him. Lots of field goals in this game.

Falcons: 19
Saints: 20

Falcons cover spread though and Vegas wins a ton of $$$.

ETA: In my opinion, the Falcons are better than people dubbing them as the worst team in the NFL. They're not good, but they're gonna win some games this year. To me, the Saints are a bit overrated with a lot of "things are going to be new this year" also sprinkled into the mix. That doesn't typically bode well for teams not being QB'd by Brady.
I think the Falcons win Vegas a lot of money as they cover many spreads this year. NO will let bettors down and make folks lose $$$.

Even though I think Crab Legs is overrated, I’m still going Saints by 13.

Even with the collapse I still feel as tho the falcons are trending up..that D looked damn near elite early in the game and I know it was only a small sample size but we looked good when we were attacking..I'm just really disappointed with the soft coverage at the end allowing Winston to get in a rhythm when the whole game he was flustered..i see some similarities from falcons past but I'm still staying positive for now lol..it's not like we were gonna be serious contenders this year anyway I just wanna see progress
