Atlanta looked poor offensively in its 18-10 home loss to Pittsburgh. The bright spot was the Falcons' defense and everything points to these trends continuing here on the road in this difficult road venue. The Eagles had to play from behind pretty much the entire game in their win at Brazil. That changed the way the game played out. Philly was just 4 of 14 on third down and turned the ball over three times. With the home side putting an added emphasis on protecting the football and establishing the run game, we're ultimately expecting a much slower overall pace this week. The Eagles offense took a big hit when it was announced that A.J. Brown would miss this game with a ham-string injury. Kirk Cousins was running for his life several times in the Falcons' Week 1 loss, and his offensive line could have another difficult time here in Week 2 as well. Adding up all of the above factors definitely points to the "under" as the correct call in this one!
