uh, i don't think so bro.  it's just not that simple.  first of all, you have 1 loser team ( the chiefs ) playing a young talented but inexperienced team ( the falcons ) so one should not put too much stock in this game.  but if i had to pick a side, i would go with not only the better team, but also the home team which in this case is the falcons.  if you know anything about football, you would know that Tyler Thigpen is one of the raunchiest qb's in the league.  you would also know that there is not much light at the end of the tunnel for the KC team.....

Matt Ryan has his way.  Take ATL.

Here's what we know.  Both teams are inexperienced.  One has won a game and the other hasn't.  Granted, the game that was won was against my pathetic Lions, but still, a win is a win.  The Falcons, as a unit this year, can say they know how to win.  The Chiefs, on the other hand, are still looking for a win.  Starting a rookie quarterback isn't the way to look for that W.  It's a way to get going in a new direction, but on the road in ATL, sorry, nada.  I'm taking the youthful Falcons and laying the points.  I would not be surprised if the Chiefs pull out a W though - not a good spot to lay a load of mooooooooolah.

Falcons -6
