ATL -1.5 vs N.E

[amrit]

What am I missing here? ATL is at home against a beat up NE team with no offense weapons. Recent reports indicate Gronk is most likely out. Is this the best play on the board? I'm thinking about hammering this.

I also like Detroit -3, SD +2, Houston +1.5, and Colts -8

For me this game comes down to Gronk playing or not. New England's red zone offense has been pitiful thus far, and he will no doubt provide a big shot in the arm. Plus it's the Sunday night game, and Tom Brady always come to play on Sunday night. Atl has stunk it up in 2nd halfs through 3 games. Giving Brady the last 30 mins to close a game out will be fatal to the Falcons if they continue that trend, with or without Gronk.
