Bill Speros writes: "Minnesota has won three straight but lost Kirk Cousins likely for the season in Week 8. They could well add a new QB at the deadline (Mac Jones, perhaps?). The Falcons had enough with Desmond Ridder and yanked him in their Week 8 loss to the Titans. It appears Taylor Heinicke is going to be Atlanta's QB for the time being. That should be enough against a depleted Vikings team on the road. This line moved 3.5 points following news of Cousins' injury. But it should still be safe for Atlanta."

CBS Sports: Odds favor Falcons in NFL Week 9 vs. Vikings
Tyler Sullivan writes: "The Vikings appear to have lost starting quarterback Kirk Cousins for the rest of the season after reportedly suffering a torn Achilles in the Week 8 win over Green Bay. If that ultimately proves to be the case, Jaren Hall is in line to start for Minnesota as it heads to Atlanta to face a Falcons team that could have some quarterback issues of their own. Desmond Ridder sat out the second half of Sunday's loss to Tennessee after he was checked out for a concussion. That gave way to backup Taylor Heinicke to get some reps and it remains to be seen who will start for the Falcons in Week 9. This season, Atlanta is 1-3 ATS at home."
