Zona ML (2.19)
League: 0-8 SU (Av. loss 9.0) as (+3 to -3) off <26 mins TOP as a 10+ fav, if opp is off a ats win. [Atl]
Falcons stumbe into the Playoffs with a pretty ordinary performance v. a terrible SL...
...260+ yards on the ground @ over 9ypc!...won't happen this week.
Won at Minni with the help of 4 lost fumbles...beat TB at home, but they've really sucked down the stretch, and lost @ NO...who have almost identical stats to this Arizona team.
Cards haven't had a great month or so themselves, but a real positive was James having a 100 yard game, and if he (or Hightower, or Arrington!) can repeat that against a very poor Atlanta run D, then they should have too much offensive fire-power at home, for Atlanta to keep up.
Indi @ SD under 51
League: 2-13 under as a home dog, off a 21+ ats win, if they held their opp to <100 yards rushing, and opp last won ats. [SD]
1-11 under if last meeting went under.
I personally think this SD resurgence is a bit of a mirage.
They've played 4 of the bottom 5 teams for ypc in their last 5 games! (Denver, KC, Atl, Oak), and had 34 offensive points from 350 yards @ TB, inc. just 90 on the ground.
SD have played 7 games against the bottom 10 D's...take out those game and SD av. just 23.6ppg, and have topped 24 just twice in the remaining 9 games!
Ini haven't been great defensively, but they do allow just 3.8 ypc on the road, and are 6th overall in pass D, and 7th in points allowed.
LT is barely going at all, and now Gates hobbled as well...
...SD do allow less than 20 ppg at home tho, and of course their last meeting was 23-20 on a game ending FG.
