The Prediction
CS: 7. Odell Beckham Jr. Vs. Julio Jones: who has the best hands?
FB: Oh, boy. That’s a good question. I think you have to say Beckham because of the ridiculous catches he can make with one hand. His athleticism and glue-like hands are simply a pleasure to watch. But Julio can catch a ball too, and they are two truly elite players at the position. I say Beckham has the best hands, but I’d have no problem throwing to either guy if I’m a quarterback.
CS: 8. Give me a prediction for the game and why it will happen.
FB: I went against the Falcons last week and was pleasantly surprised, but this week I’m picking Atlanta. This will be an offensive battle and it will be close, but I think the Falcons take the road win. Matt Ryan and Julio Jones have made a fast start this season and there are so many weapons on offense that can exploit a struggling Giants defense. With the addition of a legitimate run game and some lights out play on defense, I think Atlanta does enough to go 2-0.
