Bookies.com: Bet the Saints to cover vs. Falcons in NFL Week 18
Bill Speros writes: "The NFL got the NFC South right with its flexible, intra-divisional scheduling in Week 18. There are pathways for the Falcons and Saints to win the NFC South. But each begins and ends in Charlotte. A Buccaneers' win over the Panthers at 1 p.m., and this game means nothing but draft position. The Falcons have been grounded of late and have lost 3 of 4 down the stretch. The Saints delivered their best performance of the season Sunday at Tampa Bay. The Saints are at home and there will be much scoreboard watching inside the Caesars Superdome. Still, New Orleans should cover this at home with ease."
