30th against the run and 22nd against the pass to be exact

Now they're decimated with injuries, combined with a really weak O-line to start with.

Their offense is really weak running the ball, and their passing game is OK.

We're really good against the pass.

Week 1 and week 12 are apples and oranges.

Dont forget that was the first run of our new defense. Its is one hell of a lot better now.

Damn straight chief! I'm getting cockier as game time nears...

Odds of a shutout?

This is Atlantas toilet bowl.

Another reason for optimism... the last time Drew played in Atlanta he threw 5 picks.

THAT ain't happening tonight. I have a feeling Drew remembers that night. I think he plays with lazer beam focus and is absolutely 100% committed to ripping their damn hearts out tonight.

ATL sports radio is pretty bad, but one guy who does an am show with Randy Cross made a good point today: Atlanta hasn't changed anything as they go through this slump
Th Giants started horribly, adjusted, turned it around. Same could be said for Philly & Carolina, and to lesser degrees Pittsburgh and even Tampa.
ATL has gone from losing to good teams to losing to crappy ones, without changing their philosophy. Instead they are playing backups (who are really 3rd stringers)
When we lose a weapon offensively, we just plug in a new one and change our play-call. But, Smith is not Payton

Is that what they care about. Get to the real Super Bowl.

Like every other SB possibility they fail. GTFO.
