Falcons open as slight favorites against the Saints

The Atlanta Falcons fell short against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football, falling to 1-2 after the 22-17 loss. They’re now set to face the hated Saints on Sunday afternoon, and per FanDuel Sportsbook, they sit as 1.5-point favorites.

Given the standard field-goal odds advantage provided to home teams, this could be considered a push.

The Falcons were dreadful on third down against the Chiefs, going 2/9 in conversion attempts. It’s an area that they will certainly have to clean up against the Saints, a squad that has shown it’s plenty capable of putting up points in a hurry.
