Atlanta lost a tough one in Week One as New Orleans came back from a 16-point deficit and won it when Will Lutz kicked a 51-yard field goal with 19 seconds left. Cordarrelle Patterson ran for 120 yards and a touchdown for the Falcons and Marcus Mariota went 20 of 33 for 215 yards with no interceptions. Los Angeles looked bad in its season opener against Buffalo and managed only 52 yards on the ground on 18 carries and Matthew Stafford threw three picks. Cam Akers carried the ball only three times for no gain and Cooper Kupp was the only bright spot with 13 receptions for 128 yards and a TD. The game went UNDER by 10.5 points. The Rams' performance does not dictate laying double digits in this matchup and the Falcons are 13-3 ATS their past Week Two games and they are 5-2-1 ATS their last eight road games. The Rams are just 2-5 ATS their last seven games and they are 19-7 UNDER as home favorites and 28-10-1 UNDER their past 39 games overall as favorites. Take the points with the Falcons and the UNDER as a Max Play.
