(Upset Alert) Atlanta Falcons at Indianapolis Colts
Venue and weather: Lucas Oil Stadium, Mostly Sunny, 83°F at kickoff
Prediction: After dropping one in overtime during the NFL’s opening weekend, the Indianapolis Colts evened their record in Week 2 by upending the Tennessee Titans. In Week 3, they’ll welcome an Atlanta Falcons team, coming off of an emotional win.
The Colts are favored, but this feels like the more experienced team with the more experienced head coach and quarterback walk out of this one with a narrow victory. Final Score: Falcons 24, Colts 20
