@ Titans (obvious) W
Falcons (Hawks are just better) W
@ Vikings (Sam’s revenge) W
Colts (they are good, but not great) W
Rams (Sam’s revenge part 2) W
@ Panthers (see Falcons Comment) W
@ Niners (this is the only one I’m not sure about based on playoff seedings and who needs it more) W/L?
The last time I predicted at least a five game stretch of wins or losses was over a decade ago on this site and I predicted it dead on to the surprise of many as the one loss I predicted was very improbable, but it did happen.
Prove me that I’m wrong here!
Titans- Should be a multi score win. The difference in talent on the rosters and coaching is undeniable. I’d say the line will be -12.5 to 13.5 Hawks
Falcons- They’re such a Jekyll and Hyde team, beat the Pats and then get blown out by the panthers. Could be a 3 score win or an actual battle in the 4th quarter. The falcons don’t even know which team will show up on game day. I’d put the line at -5.5 to 6.5 Hawks
Vikings- Decent team, not great at anything but not bad at anything. Probably -4 to 5.5 Hawks
Colts- We match up well against them, strength vs strength when it comes to their O against our D. On the other side I give us an edge. Probably -2.5 to 3.5 Hawks
Rams- Only game we won’t be favored in to close out the season. Almost won it with 4 picks. Clean those up and we win. Probably -2.5 to 3.5 Rams
Panthers- Weird team. Starting to find an identity but we match up well against them. I’d say -5.5 to 7.5 Hawks
Niners- Should’ve beat them the first time. Always play some of their best ball against us. Probably -2 to 3.5 Hawks
Odds say you’re spot on with your prediction and I hope you’re right. But it’s any given Sunday in this league and games aren’t played on paper. But I’m with you, and I’ll be putting money on the Hawks to win every weekend until the end of the season. This defense is becoming a special unit in front of our eyes this season and the rest of the country will see it come playoff time. They’ll put us in a position to win every game. The fact that we were a missed last second fg away from beating a 1 seed playoff contender on the road while throwing 4 picks (2 of which were returned to the what? 4-5 yard line and 22-23 yard line) is a testament to how good this defense is.
