5* Best Bet
(NFL) NY Jets vs. Atlanta, 10/07/2013 4:40 PM, Score: 30 - 28
Point Spread: -8.50 | -110.00 Atlanta (Home)
Result: Loss
Taking the FALCONS here. Yes, this is a banged up group. Yes, I think the road team has the better defense. But after a tough loss last Sunday night, the Falcons are in a desperation mode right here. They have their bye coming up to get healthy, but at 1-3 they need any and all wins right now. I thought the Jets would be terrible. They are better than expected I guess because of their defensive play. But I think Matty 'Ice' and friends will do enough to get us a double-digit win here. I thought NYJ had the worse offensive personnel to begin with. Now they have lost their top 2 WRs which brings the talent level down another notch. You want to know why Atlanta is now 34-8 SU at home under HC Mike Smith? It's because they beat the crap out of bad teams like the Jets when they come to town. Falcons head into their bye on a winning note. 5* Best Bet ATLANTA FALCONS
