The playoff bound Atlanta Falcons will take on the St. Louis Rams tomorrow to close out their 2008 NFL regular season schedule. The game kicks off at 1:00pm ET at the Georgia Dome and will be televised on FOX. NFL Picks at SBGglobal.com have the Falcons listed as a -15 home favorite.
Falcons Breakdown: Atlanta capped off a remarkable turn around season last weekend by defeating the Minnesota Vikings at the Metrodome to earn a playoff birth. However, Atlanta still has plenty to play for against the hapless Rams. Should Mike Smith's team beat St. Louis, and Carolina lose to the Saints, the Falcons would secure the NFC South title and a first round bye in the playoffs.
Atlanta is 6-1at home this year and averaging 29.4 points per game at the Georgia Dome.
Rams Breakdown: St. Louis has been out of things since week four or five, and has earned a top five draft pick as a result of their poor performance this season. The Rams are just 2-13 and in last place in the NFC West. Last weekend St. Louis fell 16-17 at home to the 49ers, giving the Rams their ninth consecutive loss.
Jim Haslett's team, at least for now, is 1-6 on the road this season, and allowing a ridiculous 33 points per game.
NFL Picks Betting Trend: The Under is 7-3 in Atlanta's last 10 games playing as a favorite.
