NFL Week 5 Preview, Prediction: Atlanta Falcons Vs. Cleveland Browns

When: 1:00 p.m., Sunday, FOX

SB Nation Falcons: The Falcoholic

SB Nation Browns: Dawgs By Nature

Breakdown: The Falcons have a good, young quarterback, a terrific running game and a solid defense. The Browns don’t have any of those. The Falcons are pretty at nearly point of this game except special teams, where the Browns excel.

Player to Watch: Josh Cribbs. Unfortunately for Browns fans, I can see the Falcons easily dominating this game. But if the Browns can stay in it, they’ll need an unexpected touchdown to compete. Enter Josh Cribbs, Mr. do-everything.

Line: Falcons are three point favorites.

Prediction: I'll take the Falcons by a touchdown or more here. Jake Delhomme is still getting 100 percent and I don't see Cleveland winning two in a row.
