majority of experts picking the Eagles over us...I know we have yet to play ourbest ball....and while I prefer to stay under the radar......this disrespect is getting ridiculous with the way the Eagles have been playing. Can't wait for Matt Ryan to end the Michael Vick Experience once and for all!!

It will be a very tough game for us. We will see his the bye affected us. I'm sure we improved on a fee things, but overall I think it was rest more than anything else.

I don't think it will be easy, just surprised so many experts are picking the Eagles.....I think that the Eagles would have to play flawless ball to beat us. i think honestluy whoever wins the turnover games wins the game.......I would love to see a blow out.......we could do it, but Smith will have to tell Koetter to be aggressive early!

It was the game against Oakland. No one trusts the falcons now.

Falcons have a tendency to flop in big games and Smith hasn't had them boys ready to play for three weeks running, factoring in that and Reid's record coming off the bye I can see why most experts would pick the Eagles. This is a Falcons classic statement game in the making.

I see the last two play-off games and some of the Saints games, but what was the last Eagles game, the Ravens, etc.?

Doesn't get much bigger than playoff games or games against our biggest rival. We may have beat the eagles last year but they spanked Smith twice before that, once with a backup QB. You are right though, that Ravens game was big, a great win, but it tends to get lost in the shuffle compared to the big games where we failed to show up.
