Atlanta Falcons vs New England Patriots Prediction
This game has a lot to do with the status of quarterback Michael Penix Jr., who is considered day-to-day at the time of this writing. The Falcons would have a lot more juice offensively if he plays, while the defense is still second in total defense and first against the pass. If he doesn’t play, I have to roll with the Patriots by a touchdown.
The Falcons have been dead offensively these last two weeks and got smoked by the Dolphins. The Patriots are 6-2 ATS on the season, and that includes 5 straight covers. The Falcons are 5-9 ATS in their last 14 games when underdogs of 3 or more points. The Patriots are 13-5-1 ATS in their last 19 games when favorites of 3 or more points. Give me the Pats by a touchdown.
