Game Prediction!
The Pick: Atlanta Falcons ML +145
Hey, check this out - the Falcons seem like the stronger team right now, winning 3 out of their last 4 away games. Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos have been struggling on offense, only scoring a total of 24 points in their last 2 games. I mean, yeah, those games were against tough opponents like the Ravens and Chiefs, but still, the Broncos are ranked 24th in total offense and 22nd in scoring offense. I get that the Broncos have a solid defense and home advantage, but it just feels like the Falcons are the better bet here.
