Its just how it is..............we have lost not only Smith for the season but our vocal defensive leader Vilma is doubtful as well. We have been banged up on injuries and on paper we are not supposed to win this game.
The betting line is +3 Falcons...............Just sayin!

Wow! Really why should we even play the game?!

They must not have paid much attention to the preseason or your O-Line...

How can anyone favor the falcons when their last in the conference. One of the worst PF, PA, and 0-4 in preseason .
NFL Standings: Conference

You can't be serious caddie. I'm seeing more talk and fluff press than substance and stats. I'd be worried if I were you.

I have never seen Saint fans rely on preseason stats so much in my life to try and make a point. Preseason means NOTHING!

2011 Falcons 0-4 preseason...........finish 10-6 and in the playoffs
2012 Falcons 1-3 preseason...........finish 13-3 and in the playoffs
2013 Falcons 0-4 preseason...........finish.......you see the trend.

Keep putting your eggs in that preseason basket! LOL.

3 new starters on the O-Line; rookie starting opposite Samuel, see the trend?

Run the Falcons preseason vs postseason please.... You may find a correlation. 1W in three years.

Incase you blocked the post season out.

I have never seen Failcone fans rely on regular season stats so much in my life to try and make a point. Postseason means everything!

2011 Failcones 0-1. Scored 2 points...one and done.
2012 Failcones 1-1. Blew a 20 point lead in game one. Pissed away home field and lost to the whiners.
2013 Failcones ?-?. Will probably be lucky to sneak in with a wild card. Tampa will probably steal it from them.

FORTY-SEVEN YEARS!!!!

and still don't have one of these:

Re: 10 Reasons the Saints Will Lose to the Falcons

Not only do the Falcons have a decently sized lead in the series, the Falcons have never lost in the season opener to the saints.

Dafuq? Saints/Falcons have played 89 times, record goes to ATL 47-42. Five games. FIVE. Yup, decently sized lead I'd say. They obviously mentally blocked the opener after Katrina also.



History is on our side. In Fact, none of those games have even been close.
Seriously?

Saints/Falcons

Scroll down and look at the scores of the 89 times we have played each other, the majority of those games were within 6 points.

Also two of the ten reasons they are based off of last seasons defense. Since when is the defense from the past able to play in the present?
