Alex White of SportsbookWire.com likes a side in Week 2’s Monday Night Football game, featuring the Atlanta Falcons at the Philadelphia Eagles.
Kickoff from Lincoln Financial Field is set for 8:15 p.m. ET (ESPN).
The Falcons lost their opener 18-10 to the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers despite leading 10-9 at halftime. So yea, the Atlanta offense didn’t score in the 2nd half. On the bright side, the defense didn’t allow a touchdown, but Pittsburgh kicked 6 field goals in picking up the win.
The Eagles “offense looked awesome, there’s no denying that [and RB] Saquon Barkley was an immediate impact,” Alex points out about Philly’s 34-29 opening victory over the Green Bay Packers on a neutral field in Brazil. “But [QB] Jalen Hurts did throw two picks.”
The Eagles are favored 5.5 points, per BetMGM Sportsbook’s NFL odds as of Sunday, 7:19 p.m. ET — the line was 6.5 points early in the morning.
Listen below to why Alex is backing this play.
