EDGE article - September 22, 2009 Atlanta at New England 1:00 EST Kick-off UNDER
My Ai Simulator has a 3* graded play UNDER in this game. It shows a 74% probability that 44 or fewer points will be scored in this game. Supporting this graded play is a strong system hitting 71% winners for a 48-20 mark since 1983. Play under with any team against the total off a road loss in a game involving two teams that had winning records last season. Here is a slight variation of this system that has produced even better results with a 33-11 record for 75% winners since 1983. Play under with any team where the total is between 42.5 and 49 points off a home win in a game involving two teams that had winning records last season. AiS also shows an 85% probability that Atlanta will gain between 5 and 5.5 yards per play. Note that Atlanta is 5-1 UNDER in games where they gain 5 to 5.5 yards per play. AiS shows an 88% probability that NE will allow 3.5 to 5 rushing yards per attempt. Note that NE, in that role, are 6-1 UNDER over the past 3 seasons.
The Falcons defense will be able to control the Line of Scrimmage (LOS). The Flacons use a 4-3 defense, but it is certainly possible, given NE inability to run the ball, that Atlanta may use a 3-4 scheme periodically. That possibility alone forces Brady to make another defensive read at the LOS and the 3-4 can be easily disguised as well. Atlanta FS Coleman and SS Decoud are very good safeties and have exceptional quickness in zone blitz plays. In sum, Atlanta can control the LOS and will be able to have a significant advantage in TOP.
No doubt that the Falcons have nearly every matchup advantage when on offense. More importantly, their offensive schemes will be goal oriented in taking time off of the clock and achieving long grueling drives. NE utilizes qa 3-4 scheme and Atlanta’s OL will be able to control the LOS. LT Baker will make it very tough for DE Green to get any pressure on QB Ryan. The combination fo fundamentals and the AiS projections make this game take a 17-10 feel. Take the UNDER.
