Here's my concern this week: Green Bay's biggest strength is Falcons biggest weakness

and in the past 3 games Rodgers has thrown 7 TDs and 0 INTs. i mean i buy into this team as much as anyone, but Green Bay is on fire right now and we need to bring our A++ game.

Those 7 TD's all came in the last two games, which were against 3-7 teams.

Rodgers quick release is what has me kind of worried. We play that off man game this week and they will kill us on quick slants and WR screens. I would like to get a little more aggressive this week to disrupt his timing with recievers. I think you can fluster him more this way.

yes, this is why Falcons struggle against really good QBs and passing offenses. Falcons play a really soft coverage - the ol' "bend but don't break" - with mediocre NFL Qbs the theory is they will eventually make a mistake or you will get a sack or somethin'. However, the elite QBs - and "yes" Aaron Rogers is elite - the elite QBs have the ability to crush defenses that play soft. Falcons are going to have to change it up and also play their best effort of the year - otherwise the Pack could hang 30+ on the board.

I'm sorry but the packers o doesn't scare me anywhere near as much as NO's, and we've held up pretty good against them under smitty.

Our O just needs to play ball control and we can't give up big plays on D.

The Packers and Falcons are pretty similiar teams, except the Packers pass the ball just a tiny bit more often than the Falcons.

The Packers have a little bit better secondary than the Falcons so the WRs are going to have to run crisp 3rd down routes and Ryan is going to have to be money.

I think he will be.

Matt Ryan 377 pass attempts
Aaron Rodgers 334 pass attempts

Umm, no. That is the perception but not the reality.

It seems that it evolves into the "bend and break"!
