Evan Altemus
Atlanta vs. New England
New England has heard all week about how their offense has struggled. Tom Brady has obviously been out of rhythm since coming back, and he has been without Wes Welker in both games. However, Welker will be back in this game, which should be a huge help for Brady. I expect the Patriots offense to come out and make a big statement. New England has played two quality defenses though in the first two games. Atlanta’s defense is the weakest that the Patriots have faced so far this year, and I expect them to put up around 30 points. Meanwhile, New England’s defense is their weak point, but the Jets and Bills offenses didn’t fully exploit them. However, Atlanta has one of the better offenses in the league, as they can move the ball through the air and on the ground very well this season. The addition of Tony Gonzalez is a major help to the offense. His addition has given Matt Ryan a reliable target, especially inside the 20 yard line. Look for this game to feature matching scores throughout, as it will come down to the wire.
3 UNIT SELECTION OVER.
