Despite a tough loss to the New Orleans Saints, the Atlanta Falcons (6-4) are maintaining a positive outlook and remain at the top of the NFC South. Kicker Younghoe Koo had a rough game, but the team still has an 81% chance of making the playoffs. Veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins has been performing well, leading the team to an improved offensive record.

Atlanta is currently ranked 16th in power rankings, with a strong offense and a record of 6-4.

Denver Broncos Analysis

The Denver Broncos suffered a tough loss to Kansas City last Sunday, dropping them to a 5-5 record. Despite this setback, the team is still clinging to an AFC wildcard spot. Head coach Sean Payton has led the team to significant improvements, especially on defense, where they rank fourth in the NFL in points allowed. Outside linebacker Jonathon Cooper has been a standout player, earning a new contract with his impressive performance. Quarterback Bo Nix, a rookie, has shown promise but is still adjusting to the starting role. The team has some injuries to key players but looks set to have them back for the next game. Overall, the Broncos have a power ranking of 12 and rank third in defense, giving up an average of 17.89 points per game. Despite ranking 23rd in offense, the team has shown potential for upsets and is hoping to secure a playoff spot in a tight AFC race.

Atlanta Falcons poised for victory against Denver Broncos in upcoming game

The Atlanta Falcons, despite their loss last Sunday, continue to demonstrate strong performance and should not be underestimated even with a 2.5-point spread, especially against a team like Denver showing rapid improvement. In the 2024 season, Atlanta has a 5-5 record against the spread, with a particularly strong record of 3-1 on the road and 2-1 after a loss. On the other hand, Denver has a 7-3 ATS record but has shown inconsistency with a 2-2 record at home. Additionally, the Broncos have not secured a win against the Falcons in their last three matchups, dating back to 2008. Given these factors, it is advisable to consider supporting Atlanta in this upcoming game.
