The Falcons are now 3-1 after a 48-33 win over Carolina at home in which Falcons QB Matt Ryan threw for 503 yards and four touchdowns. WR Julio Jones caught 12 of those passes, including one for a touchdown; he racked up 300 yards on the day. The Falcons have now scored 93 points in their last two games.
After earning a 27-7 win in Tampa Bay, the Broncos are one of three undefeated teams left in the NFL (along with Philadelphia and Minnesota). Rookie Paxton Lynch filled in admirably for the injured starter Trevor Siemian, passing for 170 yards and a touchdown. The defense held the Buccaneers to 215 yards while forcing three turnovers.
Denver is a 6-point favourite for this contest, as we go to press. They’re 3-2 SU and ATS in their last five meetings with Atlanta, and the Falcons are 2-3 SU and 2-2 ATS in four trips to Denver since 1982.
NFL Odds: Undefeated Broncos Welcome Falcons to Denver
The Denver Broncos are one of three undefeated teams left in the NFL, and the Atlanta Falcons will do their best to end that win streak when they head to Denver on Sunday. Game time is 4:05 PM ET.
This is your typical offense versus defense battle. The 3-1 Falcons are ranked first in offense, and the 4-0 Broncos are fourth in defense. The Falcons routed Carolina 48-33 last week at home, while the Broncos went to Tampa Bay to stifle the Buccaneers 27-7. The Broncos have won and covered three of their last five meetings with the Falcons and are favoured by six points for Sunday’s contest.
