Monday Night Football isn’t just a standalone game — it’s a seeding game and chance for the Falcons to play spoiler at home (similar to the Browns yesterday).
🧠 Why the Rams Are Still Fully Locked In
This isn’t a meaningless late-season spot for LA.
If the Rams beat Atlanta and Arizona to close the season, they lock up the NFC’s 5th seed, which sets them up with a first-round matchup vs. the NFC South winner (Panthers/Bucs).
That’s a much better path than seeing Chicago or Philadelphia.
So yes — motivation is still there.
Before we get into the prop card, keep this in mind:
Falcons WR Drake London is QUESTIONABLE with a knee injury
His status matters a lot for target distribution
Atlanta is bottom 10 in receiving yards allowed to wide receivers, so if London plays (or if his targets get redistributed), that impacts multiple angles. If he’s out, look at Darnell Mooney or Bijan Robinson longest reception props.
Now let’s break this down.

MATT’S CORNER
🏟️ COMING UP THIS AFTERNOON
(2 PM ET): Mid Major Matt’s Bowl Thoughts
Birmingham Bowl
Georgia Southern (-9.5) vs. App State
Total: 58.5
Key notes:
Weather: Wind gusts could be a factor
Opt-outs / Transfers:
Georgia Southern is mostly intact
App State has 10 players in the portal, including:
QBs AJ Swann and JJ Kohl
Three starting defensive players
Starting WR Davion Dozier
Head coach says portal players could still play
Motivation:
App State went 5–7
Accepted the invite after several teams declined
Rematch of a 25–23 Georgia Southern win
Edges:
You can beat App State through the air
Georgia Southern prefers to attack on the ground
Verdict:
Nothing like a conference rematch at 2 o’clock on a Monday afternoon — but I can’t recommend anything here.
In theory, JC French overs make sense… but this is a pass.
Skip it, and get ready for a fun week ahead.
