Top Week 9 NFL picks
After simulating every game 10,000 times, the model is high on the Saints to cover as 5.5-point favorites at home against the Falcons. New Orleans is coming off an impressive 36-27 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week. Starting quarterback Jameis Winston exited the game with a knee injury, but backup Trevor Siemian stepped in admirably and led the Saints to a win. Siemian completed 16-of-29 passes for 159 yards and a touchdown in the win over Tampa Bay.
The Saints have now won three consecutive games and will enter Sunday’s NFC South clash confident they can make it four in a row. That’s because New Orleans is 6-1 in its last seven meetings against the Falcons. Plus, the Saints are 8-3 in their last 11 home games.
SportsLine’s model predicts that Saints running back Alvin Kamara runs wild against an Atlanta defense that’s giving up 125.1 rushing yards per game this season. The projections show Kamara racking up over 100 all-purpose yards, which helps New Orleans cover the spread in over 60 percent of simulations. The over (43.5) also has value in this NFC South matchup since it hits well over 60 percent of the time.
