Let's try to get another win tonight and make it back to back wins. It's been tough we all know that so far, however I like this pick tonight and I'll roll with it. GL to the forum on their MNF.
Atlanta Falcons +3 (+105)
8:00 P.M. Georgia Dome
I'll back the Falcons in their preseason home opener tonight to pick up the win over Marvin Lewis's Bengals. Atlanta is obviously without Ace Ventura tonight in the QB slot, however with this case not on the mind's of the players tonight, I'll back them to the home victory. Joey Harrington has been solid in the preseason, but not stellar and I'll look for a stronger offensive showing from him tonight. The 2nd stringer from Buffalo Chris Redman has a touchdown pass in his attempts this season where he is 11-21 for 90 yards and a TD pass. Warrick Dunn in the run game is expected to see the entire first half which should benefit the Falcons. The visiting Bengals at 0-2 in the preseason look to snap a 7 game skid SU and ATS against the Falcons. ATL beat them by 2 in their last meeting, and I look for another win in front of their home crowd tonight. Carson Palmer will see the entire first half tonight as expected, and I'll look for some struggles from him tonight. He's thrown for 134 yards in two games with a 57% completion average. His relief in Doug Johnson has an INT, and most likely will throw one tonight against the tough ATL defense who allowed just 10 points in its last game against BUF, compared to the Bengals who have given up 27 pts in both preseason games. With Cincy just 3-6 SU their last 9 preseason road games, I'll take the home dog tonight for the upset and move Cincy to 0-3 in the preaseason.
ATL 24
CIN 21
