Before Betting on Saints vs Falcons
New Orleans was unable to keep up their frenetic offensive pace from the first two weeks, losing 15-12 to the Eagles. It was still a mostly positive result against a team expected to compete for the NFC championship. That being said, it was still a loss, and the Saints now find themselves matched up with the Falcons in an early must-win game. QB Derek Carr will aim to bounce back and help keep the Saints atop the NFC South division.

Atlanta also posted a competitive loss against a top team, losing 22-17 to Kansas City. Close losses have been a consistent story for the Falcons over the past decade. They’ll be attempting to clear that habit against the Saints. Winning their divisional home games is crucial to Atlanta’s chances of winning the division and ending the NFL’s 3rd-longest postseason drought. New QB Kirk Cousins has struggled early on in his Falcons tenure.
Saints vs Falcons Offshore Odds
This game holds decent stakes as a divisional matchup in the NFC South. Over the past few seasons, just one game has typically been the difference in determining the division winner. This year appears to be no different, with the division already very tight. Atlanta has the benefit of being at home for this game, but they’ve been unable to take advantage of their offensive talent. New Orleans is more likely to bounce back and win this one.
