Atlanta Falcons - Michael Vick has a federal case hanging over him and the team, and most likely won't be calling signals for the Falcons in 2007. If Joey Harrington becomes the starter, the Falcons will bury their NFL betting supporters. It might be better if Vick was suspended by the league or given a leave of absence by the team.
Defensively, the Falcons desperately need to step up. Last year, they surrendered 20.5 points per game and 332.8 yards.
Last year, the Falcons regular season 7-9 straight up record manufactured an against the spread mark of 8-8. The Falcons open the season on the road against the Vikings, where they are early 2½-point underdogs. NFL odds (futures) have them listed at +2000 to win the NFC championship.
Falcons added: WR Joe Horn, QB Joey Harrington, QB Chris Redman, FB Ovie Mughelli, OL Toniu Fonoti. Hired head coach Bobby Petrino, the former offense-minded coach at Louisville, and former Cincinnati receivers coach Hue Jackson as offensive coordinator. Departed: QB Matt Schaub, FB Justin Griffith, WR Ashley Lelie, G Matt Lehr.
