NFL Picks Week 16:

The reigning Super Bowl Champs will take on this year's best record when the Saints meet the Falcons on Monday Night Football. The Tweets are already swirling, with both teams firing cyber rounds at one another.

New Orleans looks to have locked up a playoff berth by way of Wild Card, but sits two games back of the Falcons in the NFC South. There is no doubt the Saints would rather have the division title and a bye in the first round, but Atlanta has won eight in a row and 12 of their last 14 games. 

Matt Ryan is in the driver's seat in this one, and the Falcons have already defeated the Saints in OT earlier this year. A repeat may be in order, and there may be a new team to fear in the NFL.

Prediction Score: Falcons 28, Saints 25
