Atlanta Falcons Futures Prediction

Falcons (+100) to Win NFC South

Letโ€™s start with the good news โ€“ Atlantaโ€™s offense should perform drastically better in the 2024-25 season.

Before succumbing to injury last season, Cousins proved amongst the leagueโ€™s best quarterbacks.ย Sample his first eight games, and bettors will find the Michigan State product produced the following rankings amongst quarterbacks with 200+ plays, per rbsdm.com:

  • EPA per play: 8th
  • Success rate: 13th
  • Completion Percentage Over Expected: 8th
  • EPA + CPOE Composite: 6th

Over that same timeframe, outgoing Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder ranked 25th, 15th, 21st and 26th.

So yes, Atlantaโ€™s offense will almost surely improve next season. Plus, the Falcons finished as the only NFC South side with a winning record against playoff teams last season.
