Falcons vs. Giants

These are two 2-2 teams so something has to give.  The Falcons one of the best passing attacks in the NFL led by quarterback Matt Ryan and wide receiver Julio Jones but the Giants have a strong secondary.  And after starting the season struggling the Giants offense led by Eli Manning is beginning to hit its stride.

The Falcons will put some points n the board but their defense isn’t very good and they’re dealing with injuries on the offensive line.  So these thing plus the home field advantage will give the Giants the win.

Winner:  Giants

Score prediction:       27-24  Giants   

Points spread:      Giants -4.5

Over/under:  50.5 – Over
