Why the Eagles can cover

The Eagles' offense is one of the best units in the league. They have a plethora of pass-catchers who can create positive plays and move the chains. Receiver DeVonta Smith is a crafty route-runner. He is known as "Mr. Reliable" in Philly due to his secure hands and ability to step up in big moments. In Week 1, the Alabama product had seven catches for 84 yards. In his career with the Eagles, Smith has notched 247 receptions for 3,262 receiving yards, and 19 touchdowns.

Tight-end Dallas Goedert is another safety blanket for the Eagles. Goedert uses his size to box out defenders, but also as an asset as a blocker. Through seven NFL seasons, the 29-year-old notched 311 catches for 3,620 receiving yards, and 22 touchdowns. See who to back at SportsLine.

Why the Falcons can cover

The Falcons had a stout pass defense last season, ranking eighth in passing yards allowed (202.9). Cornerback A.J. Terrell is a long, athletic playmaker who thrives in man coverage. Terrell owns good ball skills to be disruptive. Last season, the Clemson product had 45 total tackles, 11 pass breakups, and finished with a 74.6 coverage grade per PFF.

Safety Jessie Bates III is an agile and fluid playmaker who has a nose for being around the ball. Last season with the Falcons, the 27-year-old racked up career-highs in total tackles (132), pass deflections (11), and interceptions (6). Safety Justin Simmons is another ball hawk for the Falcons. Simmons has a strong range with top-notch play recognition skills. He has compiled 65 pass breakups and 30 interceptions in his career. See who to back at SportsLine.
