    NFL Betting - Atlanta Falcons

    FOX gets an outstanding matchup of undefeated teams that could be a preview for the Super Bowl as the San Diego Chargers host the Atlanta Falcons with kickoff time from Qualcomm Stadium set for 1:05 PM PT. The BetDSI Sportsbook will have up to the minute lines on this one as well as the rest of the NFL for week 3!

    Soaring Falcons

    Atlanta is 2-0 both SU and with the NFL Lines after their Monday night home win over Denver in which they jumped out to a 27-7 lead and held on for a 27-21 win after intercepting Peyton Manning 3 times. Atlanta ranks 2nd in the NFL for scoring offense, as Matt Ryan has a lethal 117.6 QB rating with a 5/0 TD/INT ratio. The defense ranks in the middle of the NFL but has been solid when needed as most of the yards allowed occurred during “garbage time” in their 2 wins.

    Surprising San Diego

    San Diego is known for its slow starts with the NFL Lines but is 2-0 SU and ATS after their 38-10 win over Tennessee last week. The Chargers defense has been particularly impressive as it ranks 3rd best in the NFL while the offense ranks in the middle of the pack but QB Philip Rivers has a sterling 110.7 QB rating with a 4/1 TD/INT ratio.

    The Matchup

    Atlanta has covered just 1 of their last 6 games vs. teams with a winning record while San Diego has covered just 1 of their last 6 vs. teams with a winning road record.
