Sunday Night Football has actually maybe the best game of the week, one of them at least.
00:04
Maybe Packers-Vikings is the best, but Falcons-Commanders is Sunday night.
00:08
Matt, I'm confused. Is Washington playing for anything here?
00:11
Have they clinched the playoffs already? They're four-and-a-half-point favorites against Atlanta.
00:16
I know how much the game means to Atlanta, but I believe for Washington, they're not going to win the division.
00:21
Philadelphia is going to win, so they're going to be in a wild-card position is my guess.
00:27
Yeah, probably. I definitely think they want to get this win and sort of just leave nothing to doubt.
00:34
Get as many wins as possible. You have a rookie quarterback.
00:37
I think you want to go into the playoffs on as high a note as possible.
00:41
Certainly, they've won a couple games that they probably shouldn't have won.
00:45
So you look at the 10 wins, you think, wow, what a great year.
00:48
Yes, obviously it is, but at the same time, they had a little bit more precarious of a season than maybe the record indicates.
00:55
So they're not going to leave anything to chance, and they want to go in and take care of business and get that momentum going.
01:01
You know, Michael Penix, I saw some people raving about him after his first game.
01:05
I just didn't see it. He was competent. I guess that's all they needed in that game.
01:09
They got the win. They stopped the bleeding from what Kirk Cousins had kind of been doing at quarterback there.
01:14
But I didn't see enough to get me too excited about him yet.
01:18
And certainly, I think that that commander's offense is pretty solid.
01:23
And I think they're going to be tough for Atlanta to stop.
01:27
And I just don't know if that offense is going to be there yet for Atlanta.
01:30
It could be. We just don't know.
01:32
But I think Washington's a pretty safe bet with what they got going offensively right now.
01:37
Atlanta is still the underdog to win the NFC South because of the game this week.
01:41
Tampa Bay is minus 130 to win that division.
