To be quite honest I think they are improved from last year. I think they will be very tough to beat, but I think with the additions we have made we can handle them. I do think they jumped the gun on switching from a run first to a pass first offense so hopefully that will hurt them.

Just how have they improved? Are you like them counting on the new coordinators to make up for talent?

Atlanta is the biggest market in the NFCS, so they get a lot of good press because that guarantees the most page views from this area. The falcons do have a chance at winning the division, particularly looking at their schedule, so long as they do, the major outlets will wank off the Atlanta crowd for clicks and shares. When they don't they will post articles about how they are a "sleeper" this year. That's why the 9ers and the Eagles were "sleepers" every year even when they were terrible.

Just from their play during pre season. Ryan seems to be a little better and I think a healthy JJ will help them out a bunch. They always play us tough. I still think we sweep them, but they won't just roll over for us. Never ever again say I am anything like them.
