3. The Atlanta Falcons beat the New Orleans Saints 31-27
If both of the Drake London and Marcus Mariota prediction come through Atlanta is obviously going to be in this game late into the second half with a chance to steal a win. This means Atlanta will be forcing Jameis Winston to win this game something he has given zero reason to believe he can do. Winston is 1-5 in his last six games against the Falcons and is the opposite of clutch when it comes to late game situations.
While he has had his moments most of them have ended in a fumble or interception that helped end the game in favor of the opposing team. Forget the four games Jameis played well in last year they are clearly the outliers until Winston can put a full season together of making the right decisions and protecting the football.
It is only fair to point out that Marcus Mariota is just as unproven, however, he doesn’t have the track record of alarming turnovers that Winston does. While he struggled with turning the ball over with the Titans this was often due to a poor offensive line and few playmakers around him. Something that many will come to realize as Mariota puts together a good season in Atlanta.
