00:02 - Let's move on to the Sunday slate here.

00:04 We got the Falcons winning 24 to 15

00:07 over the New Orleans Saints

00:09 in a little divisional matchup here.

00:11 And I'll tell you this, Mark,

00:12 this one kicked off not far from

00:14 where you're talking right now with the Dirty Birds,

00:17 winning and covering the one and a half

00:19 as the home favorite.

00:20 42 and a half was the total, stays just under.

00:24 What'd you take away from downtown Atlanta

00:26 early on Sunday?

00:28 - Desmond Ritter did some things good,

00:31 he did some things bad.

00:33 And you know, he,

00:37 B. John Robinson, by the way, is sick.

00:39 He made some good plays,

00:39 but if the Falcons defense got them a pick six,

00:41 that's, pick six, that certainly helped them.

00:45 And oh, by the way, like Dennis Allen needs to go.

00:49 The Saints offense is just disgustingly bad.

00:53 Again, they couldn't score a single touchdown.

00:55 They had 400 yards of offense

00:56 and couldn't find the end zone.

00:58 Like, it takes a certain amount of skill

01:01 to be that bad on offense, to get that many yards

01:03 and not be able to put it in the end zone.

01:05 Yeah, Falcons now tied for first

01:09 with a tiebreaker advantage over the Saints

01:12 at five and six.

01:13 So someone's gonna win that division.

01:15 And yeah, it's likely gonna be, you know,

01:18 one of those two teams.

01:20 - Yeah, I mean, it's not gonna be Carolina sitting at 110.

01:23 I guess we can't count out the Bucs at four and seven,

01:25 but to your point, it's the Falcons five and six

01:28 and the Saints five and six.

01:30 If you had to put a price on it, I mean, both teams,

01:33 look at their ATS record, guys.

01:35 It's Atlanta at three and eight money burner

01:38 and New Orleans at two and nine against the spread.

01:41 These two teams can't cover a point spread.

01:43 This is one actually going towards the Falcons.

01:45 Somebody had to win it.

01:46 Who do you think wins this division, Mark?

01:47 I think it's the Falcons

01:48 representing the division in the playoffs.

01:51 - Falcons, they just have a better coach

01:52 and better personnel on the offensive side of the ball.

01:55 And I mean, God, I just don't understand

01:58 how Dennis Allen still has a job.

02:00 - Any chance the Dirty Birds can win a playoff game

02:04 in your opinion, kind of shock the NFL world?

02:08 Nah.

02:09 - No, even with the home playoff game,

02:10 they will absolutely be a dog.
