In football wagering there is a reason why only one team in the post free agent market era has won back to back Super Bowls: it’s extremely difficult. In a league where parody (at least until this season) has been the norm, competition is extreme and injuries threaten to derail team’s dreams every week it’s all but impossible.

For anyone that has mixed thoughts about the Atlanta Falcons this season you can be forgiven. This is a team that has been up and down all football wagering season and with mediocre record of 5-4 it’s hard to know what to expect from this squad from one week to the next.
