After two straight beat downs at the hands of the Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots, the Atlanta Falcons (-1) head south to take on a Jacksonville Jaguars (+1) team that is one of the worst in the league and headed for another top 5 pick in the draft. While no one is betting on the Falcons to win the Super Bowl, they are still technically in the playoff hunt.
For the first time in a while, the last Falcons loss was almost solely on the offense as the Atlanta defense held the Patriots to just 19 offensive points and were particularly effective at limiting their red zone opportunities to field goals.
