Its not like the Falcons are juggernauts....they are winless too.

Thing is, it’s like the Rams game. We always run into opponents perfect storms at the wrong time.

Opening game .. on the road, new coach and scheme with zero preseason games. Open at their new stadium.

Falcons ... Takk had the 2nd most QB pressures in the NFL (7). They hit Wilson tons. Their secondary is weak but Seattle managed and Wilson used his feet and instincts to win the game.

Atlanta is terrible matchup this week. No LT or RT ... but their defensive line gets pressure on starting players. They will dismantle our backups. You think Moore is capable of countering with screens and Dak passing quick?

High flying offense. Our secondary is still trying to figure themselves out and we lost our starting MLB. Also this means Jaylon Smith will be isolated in coverage on Gurley. They have Jones, Ridley, Gage and Hurst. We are still finding our identity in the secondary

Hey I understand. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying we can win or lose against them. I''m just saying its never going tone perfect and I'm ready for this team to start winning games regardless of circumstances. I'm just tired offing the only team that needs to be perfect in order to win. That's one of the good things about McCarthy in GB. He showed he can win regardless of who suited up.

Geez how do you injure yourself during individual drills. We lose Jarwin to non contact injury, and LC to being out of shape, (or not) Tyrone to an injury sustained during a solo drill, LVE and of course Sean Lee. Not a super great start. Lol

Considering how little he did last week to counter the pressure I doubt it. We need to utilize Daks legs and throw more screens, quick outs ect. If MM isn't Garrett 2.0 we should see this.

Its amazing how people obsess over that one falcons game.

Go back and watch some of the games from 10, 11, 12. Every week was a mystery on the offensive line. Plus all the running backs were hurt or limited. I don't remember all this fuss. I remember people blaming one person. The 12 tampa game, 10 Titans game, 11 Miami and New York games.....the offensive line was much worse than that game at atlanta.

there is more than enough talent on the line and in this offense for this group to score a minimum of 20 points a week even with the tackles hurt.

no way they win this game sunday if both collins and smith are out


Im tired of making excuses for this team. We are at home. There is still talent across the offense. I expect to win this game. Good QB & coaches find ways to win games. Like Cowboys @ Philly last year or Cowboys at Saints last year. When their teams were full of injuries.

I dont care if we need to throw RB & WR screens all game and just run the ball. Need to find a way to win
