Game of the Week
Atlanta Falcons at Dallas Cowboys. This is intriguing to me for a variety of reasons. For one, it gives me a chance to assess if the Falcons are for real or not. They have looked good the first two weeks of the season. The offense has been on-point and that defense has looked aggressive under new head coach Dan Quinn. But they will be going against a high-profile opponent in Dallas, so a win here would make Atlanta legit.
As for the Cowboys, talk about a walking M.A.S.H. unit. Stud WR Dez Bryant got hurt in Week 1, then QB Tony Romo injured his shoulder last weekend, and now the reliable TE Jason Witten may not play with injuries of his own. I don’t think the Cowboys have the manpower to beat the Falcons at home this weekend, especially not with backup QB Brandon Weeden slinging the rock.
That said, if the Cowboys do manage to pull this one out, I will be drinking the “Jerral Blue Juice”. But they won’t… Falcons 24, Cowboys 17.
