Falcons (-3.5) over SAINTS
New Orleans is in free fall.
After opening 2-0, the Saints have dropped seven straight, culminating in a loss to the lowly Panthers on Sunday.
It has an even worse roster since then, after Chris Olave went down with another concussion and Marcus Lattimore was traded to the Commanders.
The Falcons are quietly cruising, winning five of their past six.
Kirk Cousins seemingly has his legs under him, helping Atlanta score at least 26 points in each of those five wins.
Despite the home-field advantage, the Saints aren’t going to be able to keep up.
I like the Falcons by a touchdown or more.
Dolphins-RAMS Over 50
Tua Tagovailoa looks like himself, and though the Dolphins are winless since his return, their offense is humming.
Miami has at least 373 total yards and exactly 27 points in each of its past two games.
Problem is, its defense isn’t getting any stops, allowing 357 yards per game over that same period.

It’s a similar story for the Rams, though they’ve had better luck in the win-loss column.
The return of Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua has helped them to two of their best offensive games of the season in the past two weeks, and they’re only getting healthier.
I’m expecting a shootout at SoFi Stadium between two teams with a ton of star power.
Last week: 1-1. Rams (W), Broncos (L)
Season: 1-1.
