Atlanta Falcons vs. New Orleans Saints: Start Time, TV Channel, Live Stream and More
By Brad Rowland
The Georgia Dome will be packed, the hype level will be off the charts, and the New Orleans Saints are in town. In short, the Atlanta Falcons are getting the 2014 season underway with a massive home game. In our full preview from Friday, we took a deeper look at the match-ups on both sides of the ball, but in short, the Falcons are healthy and ready to explode offensively with the return of the trio of Julio Jones, Roddy White and Steven Jackson, while the defense has an incredibly tall task ahead of them in facing Drew Brees, Jimmy Graham and the vaunted New Orleans offense.
From a Las Vegas perspective, this game has taken some interesting turns. The majority of locations opened with the Falcons favored by a small margin, but the days and weeks leading open to the opening kick, Atlanta is now a 3-point underdog virtually everywhere, with public sentiment leading toward New Orleans. Do as you wish with this information, and there will be no degenerate judgment in this space.
