Re: looking ahead Week 3 Atlanta vs. NO
now that the line moved it's not as great a play to back Atlanta, I was really more on top of it at the -3 +103 (or 106 sorry I don't recall exactly) that it was going at early on sunday night after the games. Vick has accounted for plenty of rushing yards for Atlanta, but even if he doesn't rush in this game Warrick dunn has ran behind the best running game in football for 130+ yards two weeks in a row; that's plenty to control the game. The real battle is free agent Grady Jackson vs. Atlanta's offensive line, and I don't think NO can win it. As for Brees, Deangelo hall anybody? Talk about a corner shutting some people down, he takes aways some significant options for brees. I'm still really confident in Atlanta at a decent price if it's available.
I also forgot to mention allen rossum, he's been providing Atlanta with some good field position as he's #9 and #5 on kickoff and punt returns in the league. That's another important factor in a tight battle.
