If he does, we'll blame you.

Quote:4 minutes ago - by Knox Bardeen - TE Gonzalez needs to be more physical this season
“You’ve got to be some kind of roughneck,” said TE Tony Gonzalez on the physicality of Atlanta’s receiving corps. “(WR) Julio (Jones) can learn that and (WR) Roddy (White) will teach it, for sure.” QB Matt Ryan feels the blocking skills of White and Jones will open up the running game.

40 minutes ago - by Knox Bardeen - WR Douglas shows his talent in practice drill
WR Harry Douglas just showed his leaping ability on a 43-yard touchdown catch from QB Matt Ryan. Douglas battled CB Chris Owens down the sideline before winning the jump ball in the air. Great route, great catch. Falcons RapidReports

As long as he doesn't get himself injured going too hard in practices, I like this!

Quote:37 minutes ago - by Knox Bardeen - Gonzalez praises rookie Jones on Twitter
Rookie WR Julio Jones just got fantastic praise from TE Tony Gonzalez on Twitter: "This kid Julio Jones is the real deal. He's the best incoming receiver I've ever played with. Come to think of it, it's not even close." Falcons RapidReports
Dwayne Bowe has to be pissed by this statement.
"Not even close"

Julio is a much better prospect coming out than bowe (not even Close in my mind) but with that said its still extremely impressive (bowe had a 1000 yd rookie year).

1 minute ago - by Knox Bardeen - Hazing down at Falcons camp, veteran says
FB Ovie Mughelli on hazing being down this year: “This is my first time having two rookies and I was excited to do all types of things, but it’s just a lot of work. Taking their cars and hiding their pads, it’s just too much. It’s more about just getting ready for football.” Falcons RapidReports
10 minutes ago - by Knox Bardeen - FB Mughelli builds bond with RB Turner
FB Ovie Mughelli on his bond with RB Michael Turner: “Me and Mike have that relationship where I know where he’s going to run, he’s knows where I’m going to block and we can see a defense and what they’re doing and be able to sift through that and work off each other.” Falcons RapidReports
12 minutes ago - by Knox Bardeen - CB Owens offers high praise for his competition
Even though CB Chris Owens is tangled in a position battle with CB Dominique Franks, he still has high praise for his counterpart: “Oh he’s ballin’ out there. I know you guys see his interceptions (in practice) and I’m expecting him to do big things. He’s learned that nickel position very quickly.” Falcons RapidReports
15 minutes ago - by Knox Bardeen - DT Jerry confident, healthy for '11 season
DT Peria Jerry on being fully healthy and how that will change his game this season: “I feel really good,” Jerry said. “I’m more confident in what I’m doing and I think that’s going to take a lot of hesitation out of my game.” Falcons RapidReports
22 minutes ago - by Knox Bardeen - Babineaux sees more opportunities for himself this eason
DT Jonathan Babineaux thinks that he’ll get more 1-on-1 opportunities this season with the addition of DE Ray Edwards. “I’m hoping that,” said Babineaux. “I’m sure they’ll try to come up with different schemes to protect what we have coming toward them.” Falcons RapidReports
25 minutes ago - by Knox Bardeen - DL to use more than DEs to pressure QBs
DT Jonathan Babineaux wants people to know that all the pressure on the quarterback this season isn’t going to come just from DE Ray Edwards and DE John Abraham on the outside. He’s worked hard to make sure there is pressure from the middle this year too. Falcons RapidReports

It was only a matter of time before Franks' talent would show through.

Babs is one of the most underrated defensive players in the league. I think we're going to see a huge improvement in our dline and pass d this year.
