Falcons betting number is 10.5 wins

I think they're talented enough to meet or exceed 10.5 wins, but that's a pretty high bar for Vegas odds with Cousins coming back from injury and a new coaching staff led by...Raheem Morris. 9.5 feels a lot more realistic for this exercise, and there's a very realistic scenario where things just don't come together on the field in spite of their fairly solid roster. Double digit preseason O/U's are typically assigned to teams with continuity and have proven themselves on the field. ATL is all potential at this point.
