Falcons: Why...

[Drathdon]

Positives and negatives. Negatives sting more in a loss. Not taking early FG's sure hurt later on.

We could still be .500 or have a winning record by the bye week where we can work on turning this all around, and we could still go 10-6 or 11-5

Damn man I hope you're right.

After what I just saw...optimism tank is low.

We still play Car 2x, Seattle, Minny, Tennesee, Jax, TB at our home, NO 2x, Indy, and Houston.

I feel that we'll beat Seattle, Minny, Tennesee, Jax, Carolina Twice, Tampa Bay, NO 1x, Indy, and Houston.

Push on Det and GB (Revenge Game)

We'll lose to the Saints once though

that puts us at 11-5-13-3

Yeah but it was after almost getting Ryan killed AGAIN... And now we can't even run the ball...,

Problem with play calling is that we are trying to force the run. With the way our line is playing, the run seems to be working ok, however, our pass protection has been terrible.

McClure was a little rusty but a HUGE upgrade over who we had there.

After looking at that. I see 9-7 at best. Saints are playing at a very high level as well as the Pack and Houston is on the uptick.

We'll WIN: Seattle, Minny (barely), Tenn (toss up at the moment but we're home), Jax (in a nail biter), Carolina 1x (we win at home, like today we will will a loss at their place), Indy ( our most tidy win of the year), Tampa ( AGAIN at home in a brawl) , New Orleans (at home but I'm woozy on this one...I only feel a W here because the game is on my birthday 11/13).

We'll LOOSE to Carolina on the road, New Orleans on the road, Green Bay, Detroit, and Houston.

Until I see what I need to see from this team that's the way I feel the dice will roll for us this year.

Yeah dude, the playcalling has been awful. It's like Mularkey has been trying to show off without setting up any plays at all. I don't get it, last week against the Eagles at the end of the 3rd quarter its was like Matt Ryan gave Mularkey the finger and said I'll call the plays for the rest of the game...Then what happend??? Balance happened and the Eagles couldn't key on one play call style anymore. It's ridiculous.

Man, I thought so too in '07 about this time.

[phocis850]

Watching the first 3 quarters of this game pissed me off because I saw us losing on the first drive. Oline still couldn't keep Ryan standing up. If that is not fixed, then we will be lucky to have a winning season. I don't understand how our team has gone backwards since the end of last year. Will it take a win against GB to fix this?

[Scoochie Mouse]

I'll say this, I REALLY don't want to lose to Cam The Scam Newton. I deal with enough BS about how Freeman is worlds better than Ryan. Brees is better right now, but I couldn't take hearing about Newton being the greatest. That said he is playing well, especially considering how Clausen did with the same team last year.
