The New York Giants (2-12) will visit the Atlanta Falcons (7-7) on Sunday afternoon at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia.
Opening the week, the Giants were listed as 10-point road underdogs but that spread has softened slightly with Big Blue now at +8.5 as of this writing.
Let’s take a look at who some of the experts and insiders around the league are taking in the Week 16 matchup:
| Expert | Pick | Score (if applicable) |
| Dan Graziano (ESPN) | Falcons | N/A |
| Matt Bowen (ESPN) | Falcons | N/A |
| Seth Wickersham (ESPN) | Falcons | N/A |
| Pete Prisco (CBS) | Falcons | 31-14 |
| John Breech (CBS) | Falcons | 27-17 |
| Jordan Dajani (CBS) | Falcons | 24-17 |

| Lorenzo Reyes (USA TODAY) | Falcons | 21-7 |
| Bill Bender (Sporting News) | Falcons | 21-12 |
| Vinnie Iyer (Sporting News) | Falcons | 33-14 |
For the second consecutive week, the above panel unanimously picks the birds (Ravens in Week 15) to beat the Giants and keep their historic losing streak alive. Some see it as a potential blowout, while others think it will be a one-score game.
Other experts and analysts from around the league were similarly pessimistic when it came to the Giants with just two percent predicting an upset, per NFL Pickwatch.
Fans are equally bullish on the Falcons with 98 percent picking Baltimore.
