Falcons vs. Eagles
The Atlanta Falcons have an excellent team on paper. The offense looks revamped with Kirk Cousins under center, and the defense has just added veterans Justin Simmons and Matthew Judon.
Atlanta will play the Pittsburgh Steelers in Game 1. If the Falcons prove the hype is real, they’ll have plenty of bettors in Week 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles.
In addition, the Eagles have a game on Friday in Brazil. For one, the long trip to start the season won’t help. Secondly, what if the Eagles lose to the Packers as favorites in that Week 1 game?
The Packers have a fierce offense that can carve up any secondary. While improving in the draft, Philadephia’s secondary might still not be up to par.
Consider the Falcons at +4 (-112) for Week 2 against the Eagles.
Bet: Falcons +4 (-112)
