2013 NFL Season Monday Night Football Predictions Week 5

New York Jets at Atlanta Falcons 8:40 PM

Synopsis:

Both teams are coming off of week four losses and are looking to turn their young seasons around this Monday Night.

The Jets are 2-2 and could easily be 1-3, and last week was an ugly loss for the Jets as they turned the ball over 4 times in a 38-13 loss to the Titans.  They are without Santonio Holmes this week which will hurt the 
Jets and will be bad for Geno Smith as well who has issues turning the ball over this season.  The Jets defense has played will this season so that is an upside for the Jets.

The Falcons are 1-3 this season, they have had some tough losses and have come up short on numerous 4th downs.  The Falcons need to prove they can get it done in the red zone and if they are in a do or die situation at the end of the game they have to pull off the win to get confidence back.

This game is interesting because it could be a definitive moment for their seasons, the Falcons don’t play in an easy division and the Jets have the Dolphins and Patriots above them.

Prediction:


The Falcons win at home 35-17, they are great at home during the Matt Ryan era.
