We are just two weeks into the season but we are already at a critical juncture for those teams that have started 0-2 with injuries to quarterbacks not helping many situations.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Atlanta have been one of the most unimpressive teams through two weeks of the season but with starting QB Michael Penix Jnr returning and the Packers wildly overrated this is the spot to be with them. Teams starting 0-2 against 1-1 teams are 42-19-1 against the spread in Week 3 since 2010 while 0-2 teams without a cover are 30-12 against the number in Week 3 when an underdog. Kevin Stefanski is 5-1 against the spread on short rest while underdogs off scoring six or fewer are 37-25-1 against the number. With Jordan Love a poor 12-21-1 against the spread and favourites of more than a field goal off overtime playing Thursday Night Football 2-12 against the number, the Falcons are a highly confident play. No player will be happier to see Michael Penix return under centre than Drake London. London has just six catches on 10 targets for 80 yards over the first two games of this season without a score. When Penix played last season London had at least five catches in seven of nine games while he topped 100 yards in five of the last six. They combined for six scores. Christian Watson has been outstanding this year with 10 catches for 188 yards and three touchdowns.<\/p>\n
