The reason that Sunday's Week 10
Saints vs. Falcons showdown is considered a key game is plain to see.
These two teams are currently in first and second place respectively in
the NFC South division, and are famously fierce rivals. Both the New
Orleans Saints (6-3) and the Atlanta Falcons (5-3) have managed to turn
their fortunes around over the last few seasons, and now routinely make
it to the playoffs. The Saints even have a Super Bowl title to their
name. Each season it seems that their competitiveness only grows
stronger, and this season is no different. When they last faced each
other last season, the Saints just managed to pip the Falcons to a 17-14
victory, so it will be interesting to see how these superb NFL teams
fare on Sunday. They are so evenly matched that most NFL oddsmakers have
laid the Saints as the slight -1 point favorites (O/U 51). So expect a
big game and lots of action.
