Falcons vs Saints Monday Night Football Odds: NFC South rivals Atlanta and New Orleans will butt heads tonight at the Superdome in Louisiana. The Falcons can draw to within a game of the Saints with a win this evening, but that may be easier said than done against a team that has yet to lose. Kickoff is set for 8:30pm ET on ESPN's Monday Night Football. Monday Night Football Odds at Sportsbetting.com have the Saints listed as a -12 against the spread home favorite.

Falcons Breakdown: Atlanta got a reality check last Sunday as the Cowboys took them to the woodshed in Dallas, winning 37-21. The loss dropped the Falcons to 4-2 and left them two games back of New Orleans in the NFC South standings. Atlanta has not lost back-to-back games this season, but their pass defense, which gave up 299 yards to Dallas and on average yields 250.7 yards per game, must play better tonight in order to keep that trend intact.

"Those (pressure rushes and third down defense) are some of the things we've got to get better on," Falcons defensive tackle Jonathan Babineaux said. "Especially this week with Drew Brees, one of the best quarterbacks in the league passing the ball right now."

Saints Breakdown: New Orleans made another case for itself as the best team in the league last Sunday, beating Miami 46-34 in Florida. The Saints trailed the Dolphins 3-24 at one point in the first half, but still found a way to comeback and win going way. This team has proven to be the most multi-dimensional club in the league, having the ability to dominate both with the run and the pass. They also have an opportunistic defense that is capable of putting the ball in the endzone. New Orleans is 6-0 for a reason and if they can get by Atlanta tonight, it is conceivable that the Saints could move to 10-0 with Carolina, St. Louis, and Tampa Bay coming up.

Monday Night Football Odds Betting Trend: The Falcons are 8-0 against the spread the last five years playing as a road dog coming off a road loss.
