00:00Now, it might not be circled with the Texans and the Packers or the Lions and the Vikings,

00:07but I think this could be equally as good of a game.

00:10You've got the Seahawks taking on the Falcons, spread sitting at two and a half here, but

00:13the total sitting at four, 49 and a half as well.

00:16We've seen some quality stuff out of the Seahawks for the most part, but it's the Falcons that

00:21might have a little bit more to prove here.

00:23But regardless, I think this one can be a bit fun.

00:25Which way would you kind of lean when it comes to this matchup?

00:28I like the Falcons and frankly, I'm a little surprised that they're only two and a half

00:33point home favorites.

00:34I would expect it to be a little more, you know, yet the Seahawks are reeling right now,

00:39right?

00:40They have a, they have a loss to the Lions three weeks ago, a loss to the Giants when

00:44they're seven and a half or eight and a half point favorites and a loss to the 49ers, three

00:48straight losses.

00:49Meanwhile, the Falcons are only trending upward, right?

00:52Slow start to the season and they're only trending upward.

00:55Their offense is only getting better.

00:56Yes.

00:57They beat the Panthers last week.

00:58Take that for what you will.

00:59But a solid game.

01:00Overall, they, uh, Bijan Robinson and Tyler Algier and both nearly went for a hundred

01:04yards.

01:05They are moving.

01:06I'm not sure why the Falcons are only two and a half point home favorites when the Seahawks

01:10have been bad over the past three weeks and the Falcons have been good.

01:15So I will take the Falcons time and time again in this spot.

01:18Yeah.

01:19I'm with you on the Falcons.

01:20I guess maybe some of the cushion is what the Seahawks tend to pull off in the second

01:23half of games.

01:24I mean, if anybody's looking at live stuff, they've just found ways to rally and pick

01:27up points in the third quarter there, but probably not anything worth betting too much

01:31on.
