    MNF: If You REALLY Think About It When Was The Last Time Atlanta Was A Home Dog?

    I know Atlanta had a sh#$ year... I get that. But it's a dome atmosphere. Dome teams should never be DOGS at HOME.

    I think the line speaks for itself... you have to take Philadelphia tonight. Make Atlanta prove they can win this. I'm just taking Philadelphia ML just in case something crazy happens at the end.

    But no way should Atlanta be a home dog. People must love making out with Chip Kelly. Guy must be a genius.

    Some books in Vegas giving you Atlanta ML +145 right now... this is laughable. Wow.

    I'm saying prior to last year etc...

    They had a sh#$ team last year.

    Who do they have this year??? Better offense?? Better defense???

    What exactly do they have that they can beat Philly with tonight? That's all I'm saying.

    Also against the saints for the opener. They went 2-1 SU and against the spread.

    Leaning atlanta here but might just pass. Im feeling off-kilter after a bad Sunday.

    Just in theory alone... they have to be better than last year.

    But... Atlanta +3 to me... something is wrong with the line. You have an ALL STAR QB in Matt Ryan. He hasn't done dik in the playoffs in his career. But... he still understands the system. You shouldn't be +3 at home...

    Someone talk me out of taking Philadelphia.

    The only thing I see here that would screw this game up is if Bradford doesn't know how to efficiently run Chip Kelly's system. That's the only factor I see in this.

    Well how about the new center & two new guards the Falcons have? When your starting guards were cut by Washington & Tennessee respectably, I see a long night ahead for Matty Ice. Eagles will be blitzing. I'm predicting 8 sacks & a 34-20 win.

    Nfc south is the weakest division.

    I don't know how accurate these concensus numbers are but atl is the sharp side.

    2 Days ago... I said to myself wow... I'm getting Matt Ryan at Home for +120? Or +2.5... sign me up!

    Then I said to myself... how many NFL defenses can handle Chip Kelly's system on Week 1 in the NFL? If it's ran effectively... Atlanta's defense should be pretty tired and weak in the 2nd half.

    Sam Bradford is the X factor... I can see him fukking this up for me.

    So even though most of you would see this as a coin flip game. I think Vegas is saying... ok... I'm begging you to take Hotlanta at +140 - +145 right now. Which is truly baiting you.

    Money all over Atlanta even though actual ticket counts lower.

    Squares pounding Eagles for 3 dollars like crazy, sharps cannot get away from catching a field goal at home.....

    lol Atlanta couldn't stop a shitty Carolina team at home to make the playoffs last year.

    I like Dan Quinn and I think Atlanta is going to get much better, they know that the division is won with defense now. Brees days are very limited until they go out and get him a defense.

    I know preseason is preseason but Eagles are the better team tonight, good luck with the sharps but I'm riding a $3 bet with the squares.

    Its only one game but Seattle's defense is currently ranked 2nd last in the NFL. Is this because the lack of Cam or the lack of Dan Quinn their defensive coordinator who is HC in Atlanta? I know, too early to tell.

    Last year in week 14 at Philly, Seattle's D was the only team to hold Philly under 20pts (14) and under 200 yards total offense. Does Quinn have the scheme or is it the personnel. One thing is for certain and thats the fact that Seattle's D looked dazed and confused yesterday.

    the Atlantas were fined and lost a draft pick for next year because they need(ed) to pump crowd noise into their building to create "atmosphere," of which, they've never had much

    On 2nd thought, looking at this closer Im not sure yet who I'll bet. Not seeing the edge I thought I saw with Philly anymore.

    these are the types of games Atlanta wins.

    gotta like Dan Quinn's resume if you are into defensive lines.

    No doubt they are scary just by adding him alone but this will take a year or two to be a monster. I think people are reaching to say they are all of a sudden going to shut down an explosive Eagle offense in his first game as a HC.

    He now doesn't get to just focus on the defense he has the entire enchilada - guacamole (sick)....some guys cannot handle all of that at times.

    Nothing said or posted will change anyones plays per say by now but it has to be Eaglets or pass until we see what Quinn can do as a HC.

    How about this fact...

    Out of all MNF openers in which had 2 games going on. Did any Dogs win SU back to back? I honestly... don't ever recall this happening. Someone prove me wrong.
