Re: Falcons Pregame
That is THE biggest key for me. We can keep the ball away from them for 40+ minutes, and move the ball up and down the field, but if we get 3s instead of 6s, then we will lose.

Re: Falcons Pregame
Good news, but if he's still sore, I hope that they sit him and hopefully he's 100% against the Jets). He was clearly not healthy last week and got torched for 2 TDs -- what do you think JJ will do to him?

Re: Falcons Pregame
It's not the ideal situation, but I think you have to put Breeland on Julio, then go from there depending on the receiver sets. Julio has more than twice as many receptions as the next guy on that team. You simply can't afford to put someone on him that can't run with him.
Freeman out of the backfield as a receiver worries me more than Julio though... |

Re: Falcons Pregame
Dont see us winning this game. A lot of things going against us. If we do win.. I expect Super Bowl predictions next week.

Re: Falcons Pregame
If it were here, I would say we have a shot. Matty Ice doesn't lose many home games.

Re: Falcons Pregame
my biggest fear for this game is that the birds will do what the giants did to minimize the pass rush by going to that quick/short passing game. I hope the dc doesn't fall into the trap of being afraid of getting beat deep and playing everyone so far off the ball to minimize the chance of getting beat deep that it opens up miles of underneath room for them to get 1st downs and chew up clock.
They did that against the giants in fear of getting beat by ODB, I'm afraid we will see the same thing this week. Zero or one sack by the defense because the short stuff is open, no turnovers forced and a runaway game. HOPEFULLY they will play aggressive and force the birds to win the game, vs giving it to them an easy 5 to 8 yards at a time, which will result in a sure loss anyway. To elaborate further, look at the cowgirls game. up 28-7 what do they do? play prevent and lose the game. I think we will start out playing prevent, especially with the depleted secondary. What that will do is give them long time consuming drives, make their running game look more credible than it is, and by the time they decide to change the plan because prevent isn't working, it will be too late. Here's to hoping they prove me wrong! |

I really hope the redskins can start strong, chew up some clock and come away with td's instead of fg's. IF they can do that, I like their chances. Unfortunately recent history against that team suggests otherwise. |

Re: Falcons Pregame
I think the Redskins chances are on who plays and how effective the dinged up players are. Last Sunday Culliver was so ineffective I think Amerson could have played better (Did I really say that?). Sometimes a back-up at 100% is better than your starter at 80%. When I said back-up I know Amerson is gone to the Raiders.

Re: Falcons Pregame
Keys to the game are simple. Win the turnover battle and blitz the hell outta Ryan. Cannot give that guy time.

Re: Falcons Pregame
I think this game gets played much like the Giants game, and with the same results. We just don't have the overall talent to beat dynamic receivers.
But if Breeland plays lights out on JJ then maybe the rest can put a solid outing together. Even so, I think we need 28 points minimum to beat them. Final score Was 22 Atl 42 Lets move on quickly. |

No but u didnt have to reference 2009 to find an exception. You could have referenced week one when we played the Fins. Lol Obviously we have to not only run but move the chains and score. JC has to be the KC of last week. As in 0 int's! |

Re: Falcons Pregame
That game always sticks in my mind. Colts had it for less than 15 minutes, and hey ran 35 plays to 84 for the Dolphins. and still won 27 - 23. It was a crazy game.
