Pick via FOX Sports NFL Analyst Geoff Schwartz:

The Commanders are hosting the Falcons this weekend with an eye toward a playoff berth and I’m all aboard the Taylor Heinicke train. They are a better team with him at quarterback because they believe in him. That belief goes a long way.

The Washington offense ranks 21st in DVOA since Heinicke took over in Week 7, a jump from 28th under Wentz. The defense has been eighth-best in the league in these weeks without Wentz at quarterback.

The Falcons were a fun story starting the season 3-3 after a win against the 49ers. However, while the record (5-6) might not show it, the Falcons are on a big regression right now. Marcus Mariota has only thrown for more than 200 yards once since Week 3. This team is too one-dimensional to play on the road against Washington.

I’ll gladly take the Commanders playing good football right now.

PICK: Commanders (-4 at FOX Bet) to win by more than 4 points
