Falcons VS 49ers: Falcons vs. 49ers prediction, line: Atlanta can keep it close

Dave Tuley, senior reporter at VSiN.com, is in his second season with the Post’s Bettor’s Guide.

His handicapping pieces appear in VSiN’s online magazine, Point Spread Weekly.

Falcons (+10¹/₂) over 49ERS: The Falcons are a Jekyll and Hyde team and I’m hoping they can take their act (especially on the defensive side) on the road like they did last month in upsets at the Saints and Panthers.

Besides, the Dolphins (3-10 SU, winning record of 7-6 ATS), despite still being among the worst teams in the league, have been competitive since Ryan Fitzpatrick returned to the starting lineup at 7-2 ATS.

I’d make this a pick ’em for the outright win, but will gladly take the generous points.
