00:00The Falcons are six and four. We've said this a few times.

00:03Atlanta lost last week to the interim head coach in New

00:07Orleans as the Saints were riding a seven game skid. Not a

00:11great look for the Falcons but they've built up a big enough

00:14lead in the NFC South. The only team above 500 and they've won

00:18four of their first five divisional games that really

00:21Joe the Falcons are going to take advantage of a bad

00:23division and be a playoff team but just how good is Atlanta?

00:27Let that line kind of show you. Denver is a home favorite. It

00:31was two and a half. Now, it's just a point and a hook. Total

00:35forty-three and a half down from where it was just yesterday

00:38at forty-four and a half. How do you break down the match up

00:42at mile high? Yeah, I I think it's a bow. Nick's gotta give

00:48him credit. Sean Payton. Uh I think he's he's managing games

00:53very well. I like what we saw from him last week. Uh there

00:57are going to be opportunities against this Falcons defense to

01:01be able to put points up on the board. I think the real

01:05difference is going to be what is the Atlanta defense versus

01:09the Denver defense? Who do we trust more here? And again, II

01:14have issues here with Kirk Cousins outdoors in mile high

01:18against a defense that is going to go and get him. It's a

01:22havoc. A really wrecking havoc style of defense here. Very

01:27physical. Don't trust Atlanta outdoors. I do think the

01:31Broncos will bounce back after a game they should have won at

01:35Arrowhead. Yeah. I think they'll get one here against

01:38Atlanta. You know, that whole AFC Atlanta three and nine

01:42against the number versus the AFC since 2022. They don't

01:46tend to play well in these games.
