Falcons vs Eagles Odds & Picks Week 2: Bet On An Atlanta Rebound

I'm here to break down Falcons vs Eagles odds for Week 2, with the Eagles heavily favored at home.

The Falcons' new-look offense disappointed in Week 1, but I see this game against the Eagles as a chance for a significant rebound. I'm betting on Atlanta's offense this week.

Falcons vs Eagles Picks Week 2

Falcons Total Points OVER 19.5 (-126)

This may be a niche bet, but I think a team total is the smartest way to approach this contest.

A lot of people are out on the Falcons' offense after Week 1. But, keep in mind that Atlanta's 10 points came against the Steelers, one of the NFL's best defensive units. The Falcons still managed over 4.0 yards per carry rushing, and the day would've looked a lot better if not for two Kirk Cousins interceptions. Cousins is usually pretty good at protecting the football, so I view those INTs as an anomaly.

Most importantly, I'm taking Atlanta's team total because of Philly's defense. The Eagles allowed the third-most points per game in the NFL last year (25.6) and let up 29 points in a Week 1 win over the Packers, despite Green Bay QB Jordan Love leaving the game early due to injury.

There were going to be growing pains with Atlanta's new offense, adding in Cousins and a new coaching staff. Forcing them to play the Steelers' D Week 1 certainly didn't help, but this is as perfect of a rebound spot as the Falcons can ask for.
