The Atlanta Falcons will be looking to extend their winning streak to 4 games when they entertain the Seattle Seahawks at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Sunday afternoon. A new-look Atlanta team was slow to get going behind quarterback Kirk Cousins, but the offense now appears to be a well-oiled machine. Cousins and company have reeled off consecutive victories over the NFC South rival New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers. They also won at the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2. Cousins is fourth in the NFL in passing thanks in large part to hanging 509 yards (and 4 touchdowns) on Tampa Bay during the Week 6 installment of Thursday Night Football. As for the running game, Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier churned out a combined 200 yards at Carolina this past Sunday.

Seattle is just 1 game behind Atlanta in the standings at 3-3, but this simply isn’t a very good football team. The Seahawks started 3-0 at the expense of poor competition — the Denver Broncos, New England Patriots and Miami Dolphins. They have since lost to the Detroit Lions, New York Giants and San Francisco 49ers, all by at least 9 points. Yes, they lost to the Giants at home — 29-20 in Week 5. Geno Smith is by no means a terrible QB, but he has as many interceptions as touchdowns (6 apiece) and is not good enough to win games by himself when the running game is nonexistent. Seattle is 29th in the league in rushing, averaging 96.5 points per contest. I can’t see the visitors keeping up with Atlanta in this one — and they likely won’t even come close.
