it's at the dome homie and mid season (fighting for a playoff spot).... no chance for the bucss  B)


considering the falcons will have played a total of 5 games going into this one, i highly doubt this game will be "fighting for a playoff spot"

should be a romp tho

Also disappointed in Sherman... was hoping he talk more shit about White... He didn't. Also stated Atlanta to be another team to beat in the NFC.


PR team got a hold of him and told him to stfu most likely. and he said that atl is a team to beat bc its true.

Here is how I see our weaknesses and Strengths

Weaknesses...
1.) Pass rush... Outside of Spoon and Osi... maybe a Babs sack every now and then we need more rush. Hopefully Peters can step it up and maybe one of our young ends along with Bierman can step up. (I Pray "Jelly" step up... he had flashes last year and most falcon fans have that feel about him like they had Baker they wanted him out of town but the coaches saw something and then he had a great season.. hopefully this is true again.)
2.)LB depth If spoon goes down... i believe dent could step in but we would struggle which leads me too.....
3.) LB play must improve scheme wise we should have our Probowl safeties covering TE's but when we do have a LB covering he needs to at least be around the guy and if spoon went down and dent had to cover I feel it be Very bad.
4.) Run Defense needs to Gel... Run def is based off the WHOLE Def and if one guy fucks up the whole thing can go to shit.
5.) Talented CB's but inexperienced.
6.)Wr depth
7.)Questions about the RT Spot... Who will play and can Holmes step up.
8.) Can someone in our secondary other than C4 step up and tackle... this will help us from getting gashed.

Strengths
1.) Matt Ryan... has improved each year he has played. if he can cut down the turnovers he will be special for us this year.
2.) Outside of Matt Ryan our Supporting Cast is one of the best in the League. SJAX is the same size as Brian Banks, Spoon, and Dent... We will see a guy with Great burst, hands, and a head of steam through out the year. He will fix our main weakness from last year... which is we couldn't finish people off... he will be that grinder at the end of games that MT couldn't be last year... also our Offense's Screen game will be even better (scary to say lol)
3.)We are getting younger... yes this can be a bad thing but our CB's and Holmes have Huge ceilings. With Holmes great Feet, Size, and Athletic ability our Coaches just have to Prep is technique and help his running blocking.
4.) I think we improve our coverage this year... That CB in Arrowhead seemed like he was always getting picked on.. especially third downs.
5.) Defense has turnover machines all over the place. OSI, ASANTE, DECOUD, C4, SPOON all great game changers they just need to play consistent.
6.) Of course WR's and our general ability to score at will when not turning the ball over.
7.) Depth at RUnning back is nice quiz and Snelling will complement SJax well.
8.) IMO we now are starting to see Coffman step in as a number 2 TE behind Tony.... guy has been making crazy catches all over camp and his run blocking is quoted as being " Good" with his ability to catch and make plays we may see more double TE Sets. Ofc we still get to see our latest TE out of the draft grow and develop but as of now Coff is the Man.
9.)Special teams...
10.)Coaching Staff

Questions for you guys.
Which Rookie CB starts opposite Asante my choice----------- is Alford.
Does Holmes win the RT Spot?----------- Imo... I have no Clue atm.
Will our Defense improve? ---------- Yes.. I Think our Coverage is Better... I think our Interior DT's our completely Healthy now... I think another year under Nolan and his scheme will help (another year of him finding out how to stop the option.)
Will our O-line Improve stay the same or will Matt Ryan be running for his life?--------- I think the O-line will be fine.
Do we sign any more FA's? who if we do?---- Pressed against the cap maybe if Matt gets a new Contract most likely Seymour.

Like to hear thoughts and opinions go.
