NFL Preseason Quarterback Matchups
This will be updated before every slate of preseason games.
Jaguars vs. Falcons
E.J. Perry will likely play the entire game for the Jaguars, while the Falcons are expected to play their starters for about one quarter. The Falcons should be pretty big favorites here, but the first quarter is when they'll have the biggest edge.
I think the best way to invest in Atlanta is the first quarter -1 +100 (DraftKings).
Falcons 1Q -1 (+100, DraftKings)
Rams vs. Bengals
John Wolford is dealing with a hangnail on his throwing hand, so he may only play one quarter — and that's if he suits up. That means we should see Bryce Perkins under center for most of this game.
The Bengals are expected to rest their starters, as well, and will use Brandon Allen, Jake Browning and Drew Plitt under center.
I think the Rams have the slight edge here. Perkins’ rushing ability allows him to bail him out against backup defenses. Brandon Allen is a terrible QB who should not be favored in the first half. In what should be a low-scoring first half, there is an 8-10% chance that the game will be tied at halftime.
I like the idea of taking Rams +1 at -120 in the first half.
Rams 1H — +1 (-120)
