Preseason is here, with the Atlanta Falcons (+1)
taking on the Detroit Lions (-1) in the first test of a new-look team. Atlanta’s rolling into this one with new quarterbacks, a rebuilt roster, and dreams of being more than the NFC basement dweller many are projecting them to be.
While position battles won’t be settled tonight and we won’t know how good this team truly can be or will be, it’ll be live action for our favorite football team and an opportunity to see all these new players work, which is legitimately exciting. As always, preseason gets sloppy the further into the games we go, so brace yourself and maybe have a couple of libations on hand to help you through it.
