Thursday Night Football Pick

Drew BreesMy Overall Record: 101-61

New Orleans @ Atlanta

The Falcons gave a great big fork in their team right now.

They’re 2-8, riding a four-game losing streak, and they’re completely out of the playoff picture.

Just last Sunday, Atlanta turned in a completely disinterested effort in a loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in which they gave up 41 points to the lowly Bucs who have now actually leapfrogged the Falcons in the standings.

Football has become enjoyable again for Drew Brees and the Saints. They’re playing winning football again with Sean Payton back at the helm, and they shouldn’t have any problems disposing of the deflated Falcons this week.

Pick: New Orleans 38, Atlanta 23

38? Nah The Saints love to run up the score on Nationally telivised games…48-17 at least. Sean Peyton is an @$$ that way.

I hope so for I have Dree Brees on my Fantasy Team and I need him to light up this putrid Falcon Defense which from front to back may be the worst in all the NFL.. The Falcons Spent all their $$ and resources on their Offense nad have really let their Defense go to shit…I believe some changes are coming their Way.. Yes they have had some injuries to J Jones,R White and S Jackson but their Defense is falt out horrible..
Anyone notice on Falcons Highlights, all I ever see is #22 (Assante Samuel) chasing a player into the End-Zone for another Score

I think that’s Falcon Droppings that you smell Frank..
This Falcons Defense is very bad, bad, bad..
Look for RB’s Pierre Thomas,Darren Sproles,Tavaris Cadet to have big games
WR Meachem, Coltston, Stills, to put up some #’s

I’ve been whiffing on the Thursday Night pick lately but this looks as easy as it gets –
Saints in an easy win.
the Jabari Greer replacement is on show tonight for the entire NFL to witness. Cory White a second year player gets first crack at the starting CB job and I know nothing about him, interested to see if he can cover.
