Falcons vs. Saints Key Player to Watch

Bijan Robinson, Running Back, Atlanta Falcons

The Falcons lost their starting quarterback and top wide receiver to injury on Sunday, so that puts even more of the load on Bijan Robinson’s shoulders. Robinson ranks seventh in the NFL with 783 yards through 10 games, and he’s picked up 506 yards on 47 carries as well.

Robinson is coming off his first 100-yard game in five weeks and just his third of the season. He scored two touchdown in the overtime loss, and four catches for 39 yards.

The Saints are in the bottom half of the league with 123.8 rushing yards allowed per game. Robinson has a good chance to make it two games in a row with 100 rushing yards on Sunday.

Falcons vs. Saints Prediction and Pick

The Saints’ offense has struggled this season with just 15.5 points per game. The Falcons have been a bit better at 19.5, especially recently with at least 23 points in each of their last three games, but it’ll be tough without Penix and London.

This is a low total at 39.5 but it’s not low enough between these two offenses.

Pick: Under 39.5 (-112)
