You know, the oddsmakers are certainly telling us that even with all of the additions that
00:06
the Falcons made in the offseason, it's still a wait-and-see approach.
00:10
They take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in week one next Sunday.
00:13
They are just three-point favorites against Pittsburgh.
00:16
Pittsburgh named their starting quarterback.
00:18
It is Russell Wilson.
00:20
We know Atlanta has a new coaching staff.
00:21
We know Atlanta has a new quarterback.
00:23
We also know that they have some new toys, too.
00:26
But the oddsmakers are telling us these teams are about even, Vinny.
00:30
Yeah, this is going to be interesting because first it's going to be odd to see Russell
00:34
Wilson and Kirk Cousins in these jerseys playing in week one.
00:38
But we'll get used to it fast.
00:40
I think what's going to happen here is what new-look offense is going to adjust.
00:44
And the funny thing is the Steelers are running the Falcons' offense from last year because
00:48
Arthur Smith, the former Falcons coach, is their coordinator.
00:51
So look, is he going to have some motivation here to win this game?
00:55
Probably, because he was just kind of never given a good kind of footing here in Atlanta.
01:02
So he's going to be a bit motivated.
01:04
It's a different style with Raheem Morris, and that defense is going to be attacking.
01:08
So it's going to be a good battle of two new teams.
01:10
I would try to stay away from this game if I can.
01:13
But if I'm going to go into it, I like the Steelers in this one.
01:16
Mike Tomlin, I think that team is a little bit more prepared defensively.
01:20
You've got to like where they're at in relation to the Falcons.
01:23
And the Falcons have Matthew Judon and Justin Simmons.
01:25
But the Steelers can come out well, I think, again, defense ahead of offense.
01:29
And I trust the Steelers in that type of game early in the season.
