Dion Lewis, Pats, is my pick for money player. When he is in the lineup, the Pats kick hiney. Catching the ball out of the backfield has been unstoppable. Chris Hogan runs Gronk's routes, as he has been doing in the playoffs, and he will occupy a slower LBer and or safety. Brady might throw 40 times which will exhaust Falcon rush.

Falcon's 2 headed RB needs to stay on the field to slow Pats down. Alex Mack needs to take huge dose of pain killers with his broken leg. Not cool. His loss could mess up Falcon's plan.

Over/under 52 IMHO.

Thoughts?

I think this will be a shootout with the Pats winning. Both offenses cannot be stopped. If the Falcons can just get to Brady 3-4 times, this will change the approach. I would love to see the Falcons win and it can for sure happen. 35-31 Pats

If NE can slow down the Falcons O then they will find a way to win. They seem to be able to take away a teams strength and take advantage of their weaknesses.

Would like to see the Falcons win, but NE seems to find a way to win and will get the key calls by the refs.

Well Ryan against Brady is the mainstream talking points, but of course I'm a run man, mudder! Blount against both Falcon backs will be the key to the game- patriots have lost every SB without a good run game- every Patriot win has had a great run performance - check my facts if you like - run game is still the engine of any offense- I think Blount is capable - has 1 already- but falcons D may stop him and win this game.

I'm still not sold on the Pats D, but am sold on ATL's D. Both offenses can put up points, but I'll take the Falcons D as being able to contain Brady and Co.

Wouldn't be surprised if the Falcons win by 10+

I was going to go with the Falcons, but the Mack injury has me thinking otherwise...

I'm taking the Pats and giving the 3 and I'm taking the under. I predict the Pats game plan is long time consuming drives via the short passing game. The PAts have the talent to do ANYTHING they want on offense. They will dictate the pace of this game and keep the Falcons off the fiels.

I know one thing. If you would have told me it would have been scoreless after one I would have told you you were nuts.

Atlanta has one of the most explosive offense in.the history
Julio is phenomenal
Ryan has everything u want in a qb
Their rb Freeman makes outstanding cuts,can turn in a dime

Patriots are getting straight up bodied in this game. Atlanta's defense showed up and is getting pressure on Brady. That pocket is small.
