Saints go with QB Taysom Hill getting the start here. He has only thrown 18 passes and while he is good running the ball I dont think he'll have the accuracy passing. For the Falcons and since Raheem Morris replaced Dan Quinn as coach, the Falcons are 3-1 straight up, with the only loss occurring on the final play. He is coaching to be the permanent coach and the players are buying into it. Matt Ryan continues to shine, connecting on at least 70% of his passes in four consecutive games and he should thrive against an average Saints’ pass defense that ranks 15th in the NFL.

The bye week came in handy, especially for oft-ailing WR Julio Jones, who has had two monster receiving games (137 yards apiece) and a 97-yarder with Morris in charge. Atlanta has covered in all but one of its last eight road games and we'll back them as a dog here on Sunday afternoon.
