"In what could be a fever dream or an Oktoberfest hangover, the Atlanta Falcons are set to take on the Indianapolis Colts in Berlin on Sunday, a game where they are 6.5-point underdogs, per FanDuel Sportsbook. This is not a great time for the Falcons to be taking on one of the top teams in the AFC, and especially across the pond. Atlanta is 1-2 all-time in Europe games, winning its first contest in 2021 against the New York Jets."
"They won't be taking on the Jets, however - it will be the Indianapolis Colts who sit at 7-2 and atop the AFC South. These same Colts also just added two-time All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner at the trade deadline, making an already daunting task look that much more difficult. The Falcons lost Sunday's game in the most Falcony way possible, with (now former) kicker Parker Romo failing to hit a game-tying field goal late in the fourth quarter."
The Atlanta Falcons travel to Berlin to face the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday as 6.5-point underdogs. Indianapolis sits at 7-2 and atop the AFC South after adding two-time All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner at the trade deadline. Atlanta fell to 3-5 after a loss in which kicker Parker Romo missed a potential game-tying field goal; Romo was released and Zane Gonzalez will handle kicking duties in Berlin. The Colts recently lost 27-20 to Pittsburgh as quarterback Daniel Jones threw three interceptions. A Falcons loss could effectively close their playoff window for 2025, and a productive Atlanta run game is essential.
