We're back on the Early Edge, brought to you by BetMGM, Make It Legendary, and we've got Thursday

night football.

I know it's Monday, but we got Thursday night football to talk about.

We're going to look ahead to some week 15 lines.

Danny Brascoe, it's the Falcons and the Bucks on Thursday night.

I mean, Falcons coming off a drubbing, the bucks coming off a pretty

bad loss against the Saints. Nonetheless, bucks are at home. They're favored by six in this one.

And we've got a 40, and this is dancing around. It's six, it's opened at six. I think it's

five and a half, even five in some places. And the total is dancing around that 44.5 to 44 range.

What's your initial take on this game,

Danny? I think I would grab the under at 44.5. This is a total that should have gone under in

the Falcons last game against the Seahawks, but some crazy turnovers and kick return touchdown

and variance caused it to just go slightly over. But these teams in this kind of NFC South Clash, outdoors now, not in the indoor environment of Atlanta, but outdoors in Tampa where it's been ugly. The field got beat up in the rain in their last one. Now they go back to that ugly field on a short week. I think this could be another ugly one. The Bucks are going to be missing their left tackle Tristan Worf's. And the Falcons are getting really good pressure. Top five and QB pressure rate this season. So I think Baker could be under duress in this game. Meanwhile, I just don't believe in Kirk Cousins anymore at this point. And I think these defenses set up to be in an ugly one and what could be, like I said, sloppy field conditions if they don't get that right, this game goes under.

Mike,

I like the Falcons here, and I'll get to your pick in just a second, but I think five and a half, six is a little too much. I think if it was four, I would maybe lean to the bucks there. Again, division game, bucks not playing super well, have some injuries to deal with. I understand it's Kirk Cousins on the other side, but this defense can get after you.

And, of course, they still have the running game. Buck's not playing super well, have some injuries to deal with. I understand it's Kirk Cousins on the other side, but this defense can get after you. And of course, they still have the running game. So I'm going to actually take the points for the Falcons, like reluctantly, but that's what I'm going to take. Mike, you also like the under? Yeah, I would lean under. We'll acknowledge definitely a must-win game on the side of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at this point after their recent stretch.

Should get Mike Evans back out on the field for this one, which will be a little interesting to see.

But I am concerned about the offensive line holding up.

I think it's a competitive one.

44 becomes the most key number in the National Football League.

I just, I think that this is kind of a 2320 game, 2317 game.

So the only way I could look here would be the under.
