AAA's NFLX Thursday Night "BIG TIGER!"
(NFL) Atlanta vs. Miami,
Point Spread: 0.00 | -110.00 Atlanta (Away)
Result: Loss
This is an 8* BIG TIGER on the Atlanta Falcons.

Miami has several injured players, including to starting QB Ryan Tannehill, a factor which made the Fish go out and sign retired QB Jay Cutler. Cutler will see a few snaps today before giving way to Matt Moore. To say the QB situation is "unsettled" for the Dolphins would be a bit of an understatement in our opinion. Additional Dolphin injuries also include RB Jay Ajayi and left guard Ted Larsen (Mike Pouncey is also banged up and out until at least Week 1 of the regular season.) ATL knows who it will have under center in Week 1, but Matt Ryan will see limited to no time whatsoever in this one (the same for every starter on both sides of the field.) WR Julio Jones is still recovering from foot surgery. RB's Tevin Coleman and Devonte Freeman could both see a few touches.

The bottom line: No game means less than Week 1 of the preseason, but we think this one means more to the Falcons. Atlanta will want to start the year off on the "right foot" after the epic OT Super Bowl collapse last season (we unfortunately had both the Falcons and the UNDER in that one, losing the side and total, but cashing our second straight Super Bowl SUPER TEASER.) ATL coach Dan Quinn will want to get his team a quick win and back into the right frame of mind, while the Dolphins clearly have more questions than answers right now. Play on the FALCONS.
