We are at Week 16 of the NFL season and it’s a crucial one. Teams are vying for playoff spots and positioning with just three weeks remaining. The Atlanta Falcons are still fighting for the NFC South title and decided to make a bizarre move to start rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. It will be interesting to see how this decision turns out, because a loss at the lowly New York Giants would put a dagger in their playoff hopes.

This game can clinch the division for Philly so I expect Hurts to be active with his legs and find the end zone. This price varies wildly so make sure and shop around. DraftKings Sportsbook is a good 25 cents cheaper than FanDuel for instance.
