00:00We chatted about this one a little bit last night, but for anyone new tuning in or anyone

00:08who didn't tune in last night, we're going to get into this Saints versus Falcons game.

00:12And in case you missed it, Tom mentioned that Alave was going to get some action and find

00:17the end zone because he was due for it.

00:19And the last few times that you have said that, or at least the last few times we've

00:21chatted about it, it has locked in.

00:23So what do we see against the Saints team that fell to the Eagles, but a Falcons team

00:27that looks to have some, I don't know, power on their defense and a defense that can kind

00:32of rise to the occasion a little bit more.

00:33This could be a tough one between the two.

00:36Yeah, a tough one.

00:38That total was 45 and a half, if that graphic is corrected.

00:41If that opened at 45 and a half last night, if you remember from the show we did last

00:44night, this exact time, 24 hours ago, it is down to 42 and a half.

00:50That is very, very important.

00:52That's a huge move.

00:53Three points.

00:54Two defenses stepping up.

00:55The Saints defense, we know, has been solid.

00:57The Falcons defense, we've spoken about multiple times, they're kind of figuring things out.

01:01They're starting to put together a full four quarters.

01:04This is a divisional matchup.

01:06And as I said last night, the Saints don't want to blow this 2-0.

01:10They don't want to be 2-2 after this super hot start.

01:15And then the Falcons would be 2-2 if they win this game, tying them in the division.

01:19So this is all about defense in this game.

01:21I'm not expecting a whole lot of scoring.

01:24Maybe some Camara combined props, just because he'll be involved in the brushing and the

01:28receiving game.

01:29But I think this game is all about the under.

01:31Another low scoring game in a dome, as we saw against the Eagles for the Saints.

01:35Yeah, I very much see this one mirroring the Saints versus Eagles game.

01:39Probably a little bit more cleaner execution when it comes to the Falcons moving the ball

01:42versus what the Eagles were trying to piece together.

01:44But that's just my two cents in this divisional battle.
