The Atlanta Falcons will attempt to bounce back from an ugly Week 1 loss when they play against the Philadelphia Eagles on ESPN's Monday night football in Week 2. The Eagles are 5.5-point favorites after an impressive win over the Green Bay Packers to open the season.
Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins had a rocky debut on Sunday and will have to play better for the team to avoid starting 0-2. Eagles QB Jalen Hurts' dual-threat ability could be an issue for Atlanta's defense, especially after how well Justin Fields fared against the team in Week 1.
On Wednesday, the Falcons released a new depth chart ahead of their matchup in Philadelphia:
