00:03 >> It's pretty crystal clear if the Buccaneers win,

00:05 they're booked as a four and a half point favorite against the Carolina Panthers.

00:10 Tampa claims the NFC South for a second consecutive year, but

00:14 that is the other game in the division, the Atlanta Falcons and the New Orleans Saints.

00:19 Both hoping that Carolina can win its third game of the year and

00:22 pull the dramatic upset over Tampa Bay.

00:25 Because then the winner of that regular season finale,

00:28 between the Dirty Birds and the Saints in the Big Easy on Sunday afternoon,

00:33 that team would win the NFC South as well.

00:37 A three point spread, Joe, in favor of New Orleans.

00:41 What's the approach to the finale between the Saints and the Falcons?

00:44 >> Well, this was opened at five, Ben, and

00:48 it has been all Atlanta money to begin with here.

00:52 And I don't hate that idea, because quite honestly,

00:55 I can't think of anything I trust less than we've got, of course.

01:01 Derek Haar is a favorite, along with his head coach, that between the both of them

01:07 in these spots over the last couple of seasons have been atrocious and burning money.

01:12 And listen, the Falcons, I mean, it's a sad state of affairs over there with

01:16 Arthur Smith.

01:17 But the good news for Arthur Smith is that he's got one of the,

01:21 maybe the most patient owner in all of the NFL here.

01:27 Otherwise, he would have been fired two seasons ago here,

01:30 because he has been absolutely pitiful with the weapons that they have drafted and

01:35 they have on that roster.

01:36 Having said that, we're talking about a dome.

01:39 And we're talking about a Falcons team that is built for these kinds of conditions.

01:44 Not so much built to win at Chicago last week, outdoors in the elements.

01:49 But definitely able to go ahead and get it done here.

01:52 I don't trust Derek Haar.

01:54 I don't trust the head coach.

01:56 I do trust the Falcons to have some success here against the Saints.

02:01 And I do think if you were able to get the hook, kudos to you here.

02:05 I don't think it's coming back though.

02:07 I think too much Falcon support here, fading the Saints, which is not great news

02:12 for those that are holding Saints to win the division tickets.
