Atlanta Falcons at Dallas Cowboys
Both teams lost in week one but the Cowboys looked like the significantly better team as they were in a position to win their game while the Falcons got embarrassed so I think that there is a serious talent mismatch in this game. Dallas has been a much better home team in recent years and Atlanta gave up 38 points at home in week one so I think that the Falcons should give up at least 30 points in this game which bodes well for the opposition. The Cowboys suffered a spate of long-term injuries in their opening loss. Tight end Blake Jarwin is out for the season after tearing his ACL while inside linebacker Leighton Vander Esch fractured his collarbone and backup offensive tackle Cam Erving sprained an MCL.Vander Esch and Erving figure to return later this season. Erving is out four to six weeks while Vander Esch is expected to miss six to eight weeks. By Steve Janus NFL Analyst,
Atlanta Falcons are off to a strong start offensively, However Big Injury List For Boys!!!!. The Dallas Cowboys lost to the Rams in their season debut, but the defensive effort was there for the most part and they were able to have some ground success against a respectable defensive front. While Cowboys lines are always inflated, Offshore books have at -4 and 4 1/2 friday & Vegas -4
Cowboys opened as 7.5 point favorites and now the game is available at most shops for -4.5 points.This is going to be a close game and I have a difficult time laying that many points for an offense that isn’t very stout and a defense that can get beaten via the air.Falcons put real pressure on quarterbacks and did a decent job of keeping the Seahawks running backs from doing too much.That does seem right but this game is going to feature the Falcons aerial show up against the Ezekiel ground attack. Dallas allowed too many passing yards to Jared Goff and Ryan and his crew of three wideouts are going to give them fits. I will take the points and go with Atlanta in this contest.

Ryan looked in sync with his three receivers throughout Sunday's game, targeting each of them 12 times and never letting one go too long without touching the ball.
*************SPECIAL NOTE FROM ~ Will McFadden~ Yahoo Sports Writer *********** As it stands, the injury situation in Dallas is already ugly. Consider:
San Francisco 49er at New York Jets
It’s tough to take the 49ers to cover at this number. I truly believe its inflated [excessively or unreasonably high]. The value on San Francisco came early in the week when it opened at 4, but the value is now on New York. San Francisco has gone 7-20-1 ATS in its last 28 games as a favorite. Kittle’s injury could make the offense even worse than it was in the second half against Arizona. The Jets showed some fight in the second half against Buffalo and that will be key to covering this number as a touchdown underdog. San Francisco is also 0-4-1 ATS in its last five games against a team with a losing record.
Stats From by DVAXN Group 25 NFL Football Outsiders Rating ~[Cleveland OH] There Calculated total Point Spread Trends & Statistics and Indicators
The 49ers are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games on fieldturf, 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games in Week 2 and 7-18-1 ATS in their last 26 games as a favorite. The Jets are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as an underdog, 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a home underdog and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games in September. The under is 5-1 in Jets last 6 games overall. The road team is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
The New York Jets also look for their first win of the season after losing their season opener to the Buffalo Bills. The New York Jets have won four straight home games. Sam Darnold is completing 60 percent of his passes for 215 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Darnold has one or less touchdown passes in four of his last six games. Jamison Crowder and Chris Herndon have combined for 152 receiving yards and one touchdown while Le’Veon Bell has two receptions. The New York Jets ground game is averaging 52 yards per contest, and Frank Gore leads the way with 24 yards on six carries. Defensively, New York is allowing 27 points and 404 yards per game. Marcus Maye leads the New York Jets with 10 tackles, Brian Poole has one sack and Neville Hewitt has one pass deflection. ~ByHarv Rubenstein NFL Capper~
Prediction: New York +7 with a bet
Kansas City Chiefs at Los Angeles Chargers
Chargers played well defensively in their last game, but they were facing a team led by a rookie quarterback. Their defense will struggle in this game because the Chiefs have the most talented offense in the league. The Chiefs also have a lot of talent on the defensive end and held the Texans to 20 points in their season opener. With the Chargers managing only 16 points against Cincinnati in their last game, don’t expect them to keep up with the Chiefs in this game.The Bolts are coming off of a win they probably shouldn't have got and that was against a Bengals team that had the worst record in the league last year. LA has a good ground game, but the passing game? KC has the luxury of an extra few days rest after playing last Thursday and that will pay dividends here. Tyrod Taylor did what he had to in the game, as his final passing line was 16-30 for 208 yards. The Chargers will have to be a lot sharper on offense against the high-flying Chiefs if they stand a chance in this one. Tyrod Taylor only ran the ball six times for seven yards in week one, so I will look for him to get more involved in the run game in week two, as he can be a very dangerous two-way threat as quarterback.~ By Steve Janus NFL Analyst~
In this game, I am going to take the Chargers in 7 point teaser 8.5 points to >>+15 1/2 as the home team too many to pass up on for me. I think the Chargers' defense can do enough in this game to keep it close, and I expect the Chiefs to find a slim victory at the end. Chiefs win and the Chargers cover for me.
I'am betting 7 point two team teaser> Chargers +15 1/2 & under 54 1/2 points

*************SPECIAL NOTE FROM ~ Will McFadden~ Yahoo Sports Writer *********** As it stands, the injury situation in Dallas is already ugly. Consider:
- Expected defensive line starter Gerald McCoy was lost for the season with a knee injury in training camp.
- Starting tight end Blake Jarwin was lost for the season with a knee injury in Week 1.
- Starting linebacker Leighton Vander Esch was placed on injured reserve for an undetermined time after suffering a broken clavicle in Week 1.
- Starting offensive tackle La’el Collins is on injured reserve with a hip issue until at least Week 4.
- Key rotational linebacker Sean Lee is out until at least mid-October after hernia surgery.
- Key rotational offensive lineman Cameron Erving is on injured reserve with a knee issue until at least Week 5.
- Now, add in Smith’s ambiguous neck injury — which forced him out of practice Thursday and Friday — and that’s seven starters or key rotational players who are either done for the season or out for a period of time. None of which accounts for No. 1 wideout (and serial injury report addition) Amari Cooper already having some limited practices with a foot issue. Even in a league where injuries are part of the landscape, that’s a lot only one week into a season. Ryan looked in sync with his three receivers throughout Sunday's game, targeting each of them 12 times and never letting one go too long without touching the ball.***** Big X Factor For Atlanta>> RB Brian Hill will have have great day against banged up Dallas defensive line!!!
