I think this game will depend on if the Falcons DB's are up to taking our passing game out of the equation. If they do then it will be over with by the 3rd quarter.

Three reasons why the Saints can win the game:
1) They won a similiar emotion-filled game against Carolina right after the storm last year, on the road. 2) Carolina last year is better than Atlanta this year. Last years Panthers made it to the NFC Championship game, I do not see the Falcons of this year doing the same. 3) The '06 Saints are much better than the '05 version. I hope the Saints win tonight. |

Atlanta isn't overhyped! They are a really good squad, but they aren't bound for the superbowl! New Orleans has proved one thing so far this year..They play four quarters and get everyone involved. New Orleans has a roster full of good players who seem to know their roll. I think they can be disciplined and contain the Falcons running game. Atlanta is a one deminsional team, but what they do, they do well. It will come down to how disciplined the Saints are for four quarters. We need a big break or two, and I think we have a good shot at winning! It is my belief that N.O. will need to run the ball well and keep the Falcons offense on the sidelines and burn some clock. This could be the game that Reggie showcases his talents and do something really electra-fying!

27-21 Falcons over Saints... as long as we make a good showing out of it, I'll be happy. It would be great if we won, but I won't be disappointed if we can keep it close. The Falcons are a damn good team. We have to make Vick beat us by throwing the ball... keep 8 men in the box.

RE: Re: Do We REALLY Have A Chance?
I don't have to explain my fanhood to you. There's nothing about you that makes you more of a fan then I. You know nothing of me, so don't even bring that here.
Nice 'Desperation' logo, by the way. |
