The final game on the NFL Week 2 schedule is the Monday Night Football matchup between the Atlanta Falcons and Philadelphia Eagles. Both of these teams have plenty of offensive weapons that will make putting together a Same Game Parlay a popular move for NFL bettors. Here, we make our NFL betting picks for this NFC matchup with our Falcons vs Eagles Same Game Parlay selections.
Falcons vs Eagles Same Game Parlay
- Falcons +6.5
- Bijan Robinson Anytime TD Scorer
- Jalen Hurts Anytime TD Scorer
- +465 ($10 to win $46.50)
Leg #1: Falcons +6.5 over Eagles
The first leg of our Falcons vs Eagles Same Game Parlay is for the Falcons to cover the spread as 6.5-point underdogs in Philadelphia. The Falcons did lose their first game of the season last week against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1. But their defense did perform admirably in that game, forcing the Steelers to kick a ton of field goals and keeping them out of the end zone. We expect their defense to keep them in this game as well.
Meanwhile, the Eagles defense was a disaster last week against the Green Bay Packers. And while Jordan Love deserves a lot of credit for that, the Eagles are going to have to deal with a lot of weapons on the Atlanta offense that can help keep this game competitive no matter which side comes away with the win in the end.
Leg #2: Bijan Robinson Anytime TD Scorer
Next up, we will take Bijan Robinson to score a touchdown in this game for the Falcons. Atlanta’s top running back was a much bigger priority for the Falcons offense last week than he was last season when Arthur Smith wasted his considerable talents with his questionable play calling. Look for Robinson to continue to get the ball frequently in this game and for him to find the end zone.
Leg #3: Jalen Hurts Anytime TD Scorer
The last leg of our SGP for this Monday Night Football matchup is for Jalen Hurts to score a touchdown for the Eagles. Philadelphia’s quarterback is a constant threat to score touchdowns around the goal line, using a combination of his size and strength along with the infamous push play that the Eagles use to propel him in short-yardage situations. Expect Hurts to score for the hosts in this game between Atlanta and Philadelphia.
