Saints Haven't Beaten the Falcons by This Much

Using the current spread of 13, the Saints have not covered by this much in their five recent victories over Atlanta. 

The most New Orleans has beaten Atlanta by over this span (dating back to 2013) was 10 points.

The other three victories were by six points (in overtime), four points and a field goal.

It should be noted that, in the last ten meetings, Atlanta has won half of those.

What's the Line Movement, Betting Action

The line has moved from -12 to -13 with some variations depending on the book.  Some originally opened their line at -10. 

Action was 75% backing of New Orleans on the spread.
