Saints @ Falcons...

[jle254]

Basically the falcons are sort of like the saints last year. The falcons have some really good playmakers on offense just like the saints last year. The only problem was the lack of defense. If the falcons can pick up a few veteran defensive players, they could definitely do damage. The offense already does enough damage with the gonzales, turner, white. good game though. Both teams have always put up a good fight against each other regardless of how good each team was that year. Well except for 06

the defense was actually looking pretty good around the beginning of the season, but really, the offense has not been as hot as it should. redman just sucks ass, ryan has been looking like shit compared to last season, and turner really has not been on compared to last season as well. I dont know what games some of you been watching, but our offense needs to pickup the pace and get out of these slow starts.

The offense has been good. But not as good as could/should be. They have an offensive front that has the potential to be on the top with the Saints. The defense, although better earlier this year has really been their worst enemy all year. Even the games that the offense won, the defense didn't show up that good.

You speak of Ryan. I remember last year when everyone was whooping and hollering over Ryan and his first accomplishments. Saying he was the next great QB. And I remember specifically saying that's BS. As much as I liked his QB prowess over Vick's (this isn't a Vick argument, lolol), I wasn't going to give him the benefit of the doubt that Brett Favre Jr. was looming on the horizon. I think he was a great QB last year because no one expected him to be. They've caught on this year and have really put him to the test. I still think he is a good QB and just a level below great, but he needs help and to mature more. He's now being pressured into making mistakes that rookie QBs make.

With that, I hope Atlanta keeps most of the their offensive core and spends time looking at the defensive side of the ball. Later, QD.

absolutely, teams have caught on to how ryan operates, his tendencies, etc. so do you think atlanta is done this year?

I'm 100% positive they don't make the playoffs. They have four games left...NO, NYJ, Buffalo and TB. They have a good chance with NYJ and Buffalo. There is NO reason that they should lose to TB. Of the two (Buffalo and NYJ), the Jets will give Atlanta a harder time.

They are 6-6 right now. I predict and end of season record at 8-8.

That's with or without Ryan and Turner. Later, QD.

man honestly, the way tampa bay almost stole it from us here at the dome, it would not surprise me if tampa gets the win over ATL.

I think Atlanta will pull it off, but I agree with you on NOT being surprised if they do lose to them. Later, QD.
