looking ahead Week 3 Atlanta vs. NO

[Shipwreck]

I really think the line was only started at -3 on the falcons because of the hype about "re-opening the superdome". It's got many people in the public to believe in them and Vegas put the line in a smart place in my (totally newb) opinion. It's football, nobody took pity on the saints last year, neither will the falcons.

No conclusions yet about Sean Payton, but I think Jim Mora jr. and Alex Gibbs are rising to elite coaching status, the falcons should be ready to play in any hostile environment. Warrick Dunn is from NO area, he was among hte most active people in Katrina relief last year, this game means a lot to him as well.

As to Deangelo Hall, I took that from Jim Mora's press conference mostly, that I will admit.
