The Eagles fly in to Atlanta to face the Dirty Birds, ATL-3.5, -165, O/U 48.5 and this is another game where two teams were not good last year. New coaches on both sides so everything is a new start. The Falcons have tried to fix the secondary who were 15th is pass D last year. On offense they have had the tools to get the job done, but last season as a team there were so many mental errors I thought they were gonna catch myself in how many times one could be that good and mess up that much.
Philly had playoff expectations last year and decided Jalen Hurts is now their QB, they added one of the best to move up from college at WR and return a good defense. There are a lot of early money line wagers on the Eagles here at +145, and I’m not sure if any of the love from NBA Playoff series will carry over to this game, but we’ll see.
I think last years nothing really matters on this game, they haven’t met since 2019, but there have been 4 what would be UNDER plays as they have had two high scoring teams but when they met in the past its been low scoring games. The early action has taken that total from 46 to 48.5, where that number is at you could see maybe field goal make or miss end up swaying things. With the -3.5 a lot people get hit that half a point there, and some choose to buy the half-point, making -3. This one all I have is a prediction, Atlanta-3.5 and under 27-20.
