I'm sure Smitty will have the team ready...just don't know how much with the secondary we have.

All I can say is PLEASE give up on Turner. I would rather he be out of the NFC South if ya know what I mean.

Re: LOL The Falcons Board Must Be Getting Hit HARD!
Hello Da Truth I visited your board today as B&G 101 not to antagonize but I really do not know that much about the Falcons this year. Our Divisional games came late this year and have only caught some headlines about your team. Traditionally these have been hard games for the Saints and Falcons and I really expect the same come Monday. Someone is going to have to make some plays to break the stalemate as always. I like Roddy and think this is the guy we have to shut down and the running game for you guys has been tough in the past. Actually the Saints for the most part have been tough against the run but occasionally they seem to have breakdowns and still give up the long runs. Most of us love Stecker here and I personally am not sure why he is not still here. I do believe we will see a fine game come Monday night.

Re: LOL The Falcons Board Must Be Getting Hit HARD!
We're not flying under the radar like last year and teams have been stacking the box against Turner. We seem to have better results from our other backs this year. I don't no what's going on with Turner--maybe he gets it going against the Saints.
Our secondary has been the weak link on our defense this year, but I like that we've gotten faster upfront and with the LBs. We're still young and have some holes to fill. The injury bug hit two of our top draft picks and recently some of our RBs. I still think it will be a good game. |

Re: LOL The Falcons Board Must Be Getting Hit HARD!
Tongue in cheek slurs aside, and despite my festering hatred for all that is Falcons, I have to admit they are a solid and daunting young team who I now hate to play and likely will for many years. Matt Ryan is a blossoming QB, Turner can bring it and Roddy White and Gonzo can be a handful. I am not looking forward to Abraham either. Jason Taylor wreaked havoc on our line and I think at this stage in their careers Abraham is even better.
I am confident we are the better team right now, but any given Sunday can lead to a loss. We need to play a mistake free game and respect both sides of your team. I am pumped for this game and cannot wait for it to start. May it be an injury free evening for both sides. I won't wish you luck in the result though |

Re: LOL The Falcons Board Must Be Getting Hit HARD!
If the falcons win I'll give em props. But the best team usually wins and a falcons fan with any reasoning can't tell me they're better right now. I'm not being a homer but the numbers don't lie. You're like we were last year to a certain degree: your defense has a lot of holes, and you haven't runned the ball effectively. Not saying you can't correct those areas, but November isn't an ideal time to address em.

We should all go to their site and be very polite after we win by 33 points on Monday Night.
