THE PREDICTION
Atlanta Falcons were hugely disappointing last season as they finished 7-9 and they will be desperate to improve significantly on that this time around. They still have many of the same pieces of the jigsaw but they will have to improve both offensively and defensively to push the Saints in the NFC South. The Seahawks continue to compete well under Pete Carroll and they have one of the best quarterbacks in the game in Russell Wilson. Their defense should improve on last season also but they will find it difficult to contain the Falcons offense here. This match promises to be high-scoring, and while the Seahawks are favoured to win in this pick’em game, over 49.5 is also worth considering in a game featuring two well-drilled offenses.
