The Atlanta Falcons (3-6) and New Orleans Saints (7-2) meet at Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday for an NFC South rivalry game. It’s the first meeting of the 2020 season between the two. They’ll play again in Week 13. Below, we take a look at the early Falcons-Saints Week 11 betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.
The Falcons are coming off a bye after winning back-to-back games for the first time all season. They need to run the table in order to give themselves a shot at the NFC playoffs, but they enter the toughest stretch of their schedule. Atlanta will play the Saints and rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers twice each in the final seven weeks. QB Matt Ryan has been one of few bright spots this season. He has completed 67.2% of his passes for 2,746 yards and 15 touchdowns against 5 interceptions.
The Saints are expected to begin life without QB Drew Brees. He’s likely to miss multiple games with a build-up of injuries including fractured ribs and a collapsed lung. QB Jameis Winston will likely slide in under center for at least Week 10; it’ll be the former No. 1 pick’s first start with the Saints. RB Alvin Kamara has been the real star for New Orleans this year. He has 1,134 yards from scrimmage and 11 total touchdowns through nine games.
