Premium Pick

The Atlanta Falcons suffered through a lot of key injuries last season on the offensive side, especially at wide-receiver. It left a good QB in Matt Ryan without a lot of strong options, and the Falcons paid the price. They are healthy again, and you could see the difference last week as they went for 37 points. The one constant, however, is a defense that may be somewhat improved over a year ago, but still average at best. That will mean the Falcons will likely end up in a lot of shootouts this season. I think the total has some wiggle room here on the OVER. The Bengals have certainly thrived at home on offense. :ast season a team not known for offense scored 40+ in half their home games, and went for 34 or more in six of the eight regular season home games. I think this one becomes a shootout, so make the play on the OVER.
