Monday Night Result:
New Orleans Saints at Atlanta Falcons (Actual ~ New Orleans, 17-14)
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Atlanta, 24-21. As much as I like the Saints, the Falcons are the best, most well-rounded team, in the NFC.
Scottie V's Pick: New Orleans, 28-27. The Saints remind the surging Falcons who the defending Super Bowl Champions are.
Vegas Lines Pick: Atlanta, 26-23. Atlanta by 2.5, Over/Under 48.5.
Accuscore Pick: New Orleans, 20-17. New Orleans 54% win confidence
What If Sports Pick: New Orleans, 24-23. New Orleans won 3 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Atlanta, 20-17. Atlanta better at 12-2.
Home Team Wins Pick: Atlanta, 20-17
The Saints survived two fourth quarter interceptions by Drew Brees to even the score with Atlanta, punch a ticket to the post-season and keep their division title hopes alive. The Falcons fought hard, only falling at home for the second time since Matt Ryan has been their quarterback, but ultimately could not overcome the Saints' defense. It is very possible that these two teams could meet again in the divisional round of the playoffs. The Falcons can still clinch home-field advantage with a victory next week over Carolina.
Check back later today for the results of the first ever Creative Misfortune "If Real Football Used Fantasy Scoring..." Fantasy Bowl. Both the Chargers and Giants struggled in their games. Which of these two teams will emerge as the fantasy champion?
