Atlanta Falcons at New Orleans Saints
Shough's Three-Game Continuity vs. Atlanta's Revolving QB Door
The pick: New Orleans Saints -1.5 at −112 (FanDuel)
Lost. Final: Atlanta Falcons 45, New Orleans Saints 24.
New Orleans -1.5 at -112 wins this argument on the back of quarterback continuity: Tyler Shough has run the Saints' offense for all three 2026 games - 91 of 132, 917 yards, 8 touchdowns, 3 interceptions - while Atlanta has split reps across Michael Penix Jr. (1 game), Cooper Rush (2 games), and Jack Strand (1 game), none of whom has built anything resembling a rhythm.
