8* FALCONS (SUPER BLOWOUT)

Atlanta lost a tough one by a score of 27-26 to the Saints at home as a six-point underdog. It was an impressive first showing and I believe Marcus Mariota and company can build off that performance. The Rams on the other hand looked pretty out of sort in falling 31-10 at home on Opening night. LA has plenty of issues on both sides of the ball and it all started with the weak performance of Matthew Stafford. He really does have a "feel" about him about following in the footsteps of Joe Flacco after he won the Super Bowl. Atlanta looked good for three quarters, but once again blew a double digit lead in the fourth. Sean McVay's record after a loss is 18-8, including 16-9-1 ATS. However, these numbers are set to fall further here in my opinion. The Rams are 7-11 when favored since 2011 and Atlanta is interestingly 13-3 ATS in its last 16 Week 2 contests. Too many points here. The Falcons showed the ability to play defense last week. Expect this one to come down to the wire.
