Week 2 concludes in Philadelphia.
Week 2 of the NFL season is set to wrap up, as Monday Night Football heads to Philadelphia for a NFC matchup between the Eagles and Atlanta Falcons.
It was a slow start for Kirk Cousins in his Atlanta debut, as he threw for just 155 yards as he still look hobbled by his season-ending Achilles injury. They’ll look to get their first win of the season as Jalen Hurts and Co. look to improve to 2-0.
Check down below to see Pats Pulpit’s picks tonight and head to the comment section to further discussion Friday night’s action.

Go good game! An all NFC matchup leads to a stress free Monday night matchup for the Patriots. | 8:15 p.m. ET, ABC/ESPN
Patriots picks
Oliver Thomas: The Philadelphia front faces Kirk Cousins, a week removed from being held to one touchdown and two interceptions in his first start as a Falcon. Will he have more more inside-the-pocket mobility Monday night while working back from a torn right Achilles? | Eagles 31, Falcons 17
Brian Hines: Kirk Cousins does not look fully healthy and will have his hands full against Philly’s front. On the other side of the ball, Saquon Barkley looked as good as ever in his first game behind the Eagles offensive line. | Eagles 27, Falcons 17
Bernd Buchmasser: Two teams seemingly on opposite ends of the spectrum heading into their Monday night meeting. The Eagles impressed in Week 1, while the Falcons struggled especially on offense. On paper, this could be a rather lopsided affair. | Eagles 28, Falcons 10
