00:00Let's get started in game number one down in Atlanta, Joe.

00:02Buffalo and Atlanta, of course, it's going to be Josh Allen versus Michael Pennix.

00:05A 7-15 start tonight.

00:07The total opened up around 50 and a half.

00:09Still some outlets showing 50s, Joe, but primarily 49 and a half.

00:12Here's the line, though.

00:13Opened up at 4 and a half.

00:15We've now dipped to 3 and a half, which isn't a big line movement.

00:17Still stays over that key number of three.

00:19But I'm interested to see where this line actually ends at the majority of most outlets tonight.

00:23Why?

00:23Because eight out of every 10 tickets are coming in on the Buffalo Bills.

00:26Most people like to bet on the Buffalo Bills,

00:28but it feels like a really good spot for the Atlanta Falcons.

00:31Now, Buffalo did lose that game to the England Patriots.

00:34They're looking to bounce back, but this is a road game against a team coming off a bye

00:37and is rested with one of the best playmakers in the NFL,

00:41and B. John Robinson coming out of the backfield.

00:44How do you start with this game, Joe, tonight?

00:45With the line called 3 and a half and a total, just under 50.

00:49Well, it's interesting, Donnie, that you're right.

00:51I mean, the betting public has looked at the Bills as a great bounce back spot here

00:57against Atlanta, who we still remember having been shut out a couple of weeks ago

01:02against this Carolina team, which, P.S., by the way, they're sitting at 500,

01:06so that loss doesn't look nearly as crazy as it did a couple of weeks ago.

01:11But the Falcons had extra rest.

01:13The Falcons have had an opportunity to put it together.

01:17I don't trust this Falcons team.

01:19I don't believe Penix is the answer just yet, and I don't believe that this coaching staff

01:27is one that can put him in a spot to win this game against Josh Allen.

01:32So, you know, let's not forget, the public is not always wrong here.

01:37I would not be wanting to sit there and hoping Atlanta can do enough in the fourth quarter

01:43with a young quarterback to beat Buffalo and Josh Allen.

01:47So, to me, it would be Buffalo a pass, but I do like the total more than anything else.
