Atlanta Falcons 2010 NFL Predictions & 2011 Super Bowl Predictions: Point-Spreads.com is breaking down the Atlanta Falcons out of the NFC South Division. The 2010 NFL Predictions Experts at online sportsbook SBGGLOBAL.com have made the Atlanta Falcons +2000 odds to win Super Bowl XLV.
PROS: Quarterback Matt Ryan proved that his strong rookie season as no fluke and is quickly becoming an elite NFL signal caller. The receiving corps is strong, led by Roddy White and ageless tight end Tony Gonzalez. Michael Turner has been a great running back for the Falcons when healthy over the last two seasons, but he was limited to 11 games in 2009 and his durability could become a concern. Helping make life easier for the offensive stars is an offensive line that doesn't include a Pro Bowler, but as a unit is developing into an important part of the success of the offense.
The 2010 NFL Predictions Experts at online sportsbook SBGGLOBAL.com have made the Atlanta Falcons +750 odds to win the 2011 NFC Championship Title.
CONS: The Falcons allowed 24 points per game over the first 13 games of the season before holding their final three opponents (Jets, Bills and Buccaneers) to 20 total points. Atlanta ranked 28th in the NFL in passing defense in 2009 and intercepted only 15 passes while allowing 25 touchdown passes. Veteran defensive end John Abraham's production went from 16.5 sacks in 2009 to 5.5 in 2009. Third year linebacker Curtis Lofton is developing into a solid pro while veteran Mike Peterson remains a solid performer. Cornerback brent Grimes led the team with six interceptions last season while free safety Thomas DeCoud had 68 tackles, three interceptions and two sacks.
