You've been saying the same shit for like 3 weeks. People grow tired of it. Your defense is not good at all, get the fuck over it man. There's nothing good about your defense, and if you want to point to the Philly game be my guest. They march a high school esque line out there every week and they were still able to move the ball farely well. If the Saints win the Falcons might not recover? LOL! You have to be the lamest homer of all times. I can't wait until your panty waste of a squad is officially eliminated because then maybe you'll finally go away.

Ever stop to thoink our offensive game plan may be to score from outside the red zone against you with this one. That's if we really felt like we couldn't score in the redzone against you, which to be honest all 3 of our top 3 targets are big red zone threats. You got to look at the personell of a team and evaluate it that way.

You are beating your chest about those linebackers but truth be told unless you are willing to match up one of them on TG when we bring HD on the field one of them is coming off to allow another corner on the field that's a mismatch anyway you cut it. That secondary cannot keep up with any of those receivers on a game long one to one basis.

Our defense is going to have far mor success keeping your points off the board than vice versa, because they are stopping scoring and maintaining good coverage, when Josh Freeman is carving your team like a slow roasted moroccan lamb shank you know you have problems. Your offense will get theres there is no doubt about it. But they will be the team who has to overcome 2 defenses on Sunday and that isn't going to work out well.

Best bet is to rush 3/4 and put everything else in coverage, blitzing Ryan with your team defense is in Atlanta's favour. Your defense is going to be in damage limitation mode and that is a bad position to be in because that means you aren't executing your own gameplan, just chasing answers to the offenses. I've seen it happen enough times with Van Gorder against countless NFL teams.

And that is why they play the game. I am sure you think this will be a walk in the park, but I am feeling really good about this one.

When have I said anything about our defense being good? I haven't. They have been horrible since week one but have shown steady improvement every week and I expect more improvement this week. Who knows, by the end of the year they may become average. Besides, you don't need a good defense when you have a great offense. That has been proven.

No, they haven't shown improvement every week. They've consistently been thrown on and run all over week in and week out, the only exception being this past week where they managed to hold the Eagles to 13 points, but still gave up 425+ yards. Your last statement is false, you still need a defense that can get turnovers if they aren't going to be good otherwise.

I never consider football to be a walk in the park. I see the full battle that the game is having been a player who spent my years playing for some of the worst teams in the nation and taking those losing lumps, but still mnaking sure my units were a nuisance. What I do see though is a game in which Atlanta will have to be doing everything wrong and New Orleans doing everything right... This isn't going to be the game where that happens. This game will be a punch up but Atlanta is rolling with two pretty good fists whilst New Orleans are rolling with one good fist and one broken one. I said it in another post this game is going to give new orleans the same struggles they had with Denver. The offense is going to do all they can, but the defense is going to let them down. More precisely that secondary. I'm not predicting a blow out, but I think Atlanta will take this game by 10 - 14 points. In Atlanta V New Orelans games that is a close score in my own opinion

Get off the improvement stuff. You have one of the worst defenses EVER! EVER! EVER! It's that bad dude.

They have already become the first team since at least 1950 — maybe ever — to give up more than 400 yards in eight straight games. On average, they've surrendered 50 yards more per game than the NFL's next-worst team. If this keeps up, they will obliterate the record for most yards allowed in a season.

Seriously what games are you watching? The Eagles lost by 15 points and still out gained your offense by nearly 80 yards! 80 yards! Your D is one of the worst of all time you need to learn to deal with it.
