Welcome Everybody where we are going to look at the Atlanta Falcons visiting Las Vegas to take on a Raiders team that has had a rough season dealing with plenty of Injuries including Crosby on defense is a massive blow to the Raiders. Well, Atlanta trying to keep its slim playoff hopes alive here on Monday in Allegiant Stadium. So Let me get you a Prediction.
Do the Falcons win?
Well, the Falcons on the road this season are averaging 398 yards of total offense and that equals 6.4 YPP. So With Cousins playing the worst I have seen arguably in his career over the last few games nothing says keeping hopes alive like beating up on a beat-up Raiders team at this point would be in a great spot come draft day. Cousins and company including Riddlie need to step up their game is the reason that Atlanta can win on the strength of Cousins’s amazing record against the bad teams in his career. This season Atlanta is 2-0 ATS versus teams getting outscored by 6+ points a game, including 1-0 ATS on the road. Atlanta also wins if Kirk doesn’t toss Interceptions, Ball security will be key for Atlanta here as their defense can cause some havoc on inexperienced players on both sides of the ball for the Raiders.
ATLANTA TRENDS:
- Take the UNDER in Atlanta non-conference games.
The Under’s record since the 2023 season: 8-1 - Take the UNDER in Atlanta games after playing their last game on the road, The Falcons are 5-0
- Las Vegas is off a road blowout loss by 14 points or more, You FADE Raiders as they are 0-5 ATS.
Atlanta PROPS:
Kyle Pitts has gone under 27.5 Receiving Yards in four of his last five games.
Kirk Cousins over his passing yards of 241.5 as he has done this in 3 out last five games.
Bijan Robinson has gone over his Rushing yards of 84.5 in 4 out of his last five games.
Do the Raiders win?
It all depends on the health of starter Aidan O’Connell, who is questionable with a knee injury for this game I think the bigger storyline for this game would be if Desmond Ridder ended up playing and sure he would enjoy a motivated game against his old team and that could make for some big storylines for sure on Tuesday. But first, this Raiders offense would need to find some guys to step up as offensively averaged 363 yards of offense over the last three games and 16 points a game over those last three as well. They will also need to step up defensively as well, cause over the last three they giving up over 372 yards of offense and 28+ points a game over those three games. There is a full Moon tho and that is what it might take for this Raiders team to get the win here as they are 1-6 SU after playing their last game on the road.
RAIDERS TRENDS:
- Las Vegas in home games off a non-conference game.
Las Vegas record since the 2023 season: 6-0 ATS - Atlanta in away games vs. awful passing defenses – allowing a comp. pct. of 64% or worse in the second half of the season.
Atlanta’s record since the 2023 season: is 0-5 ATS - The Raiders have lost each of their last nine games.
Las Vegas PROPS:
Jakobi Meyers has OVER 5.5 Receptions as he has done this in 5 out last six games.
Brock Bowers to score a Touchdown, as he has scored in 3 out of the last five games.
RODD’S FINAL PREDICTION:
So after looking at everything about this game, I expect Cousins and company to have a great game to keep their playoff hopes alive as they play the backup beat-up Raiders as they are not 100% healthy and that will lead to tour overs that will be costly for the Raiders here on Monday night. Also, the Raiders just got beat up by 14+ points last game. Las Vegas is off a road blowout loss by 14 points or more, You FADE Raiders as they are 0-5 ATS in this spot. Gotta LAY the points with the Atlanta Falcons -5.5
