The Falcons’ Week 1 contest against the Seahawks is a only 4 days away. In less time than it took me to eat all the surplus Halloween candy without my kids’ permission, the Falcons will kick off what has the potential to be a truly exciting season.
Draftkings Sportsbook has the Falcons as 1.5 point underdogs going into the game, which makes some sense if you are willing to take an objective look at the composition of both teams. That said, this actually a much different situation than last year’s regular season matchup between these two teams, also played in Atlanta.
