According to the article it looks like they beat us in the one on one match ups. We have the best O-line when everyone is healthy. However, we aren't fielding all of our starters Sunday and could easily lose key match ups against a strong defensive line.

Ignore that we lost Kamara and Ingram was injured. Ignore the oline injuries that had us playing with a third string guard

We ran the ball very little...

Ingram was reportedly injured during the week and was listed as questionable, Peat was out and Kamara left the game after 1 series... let's not forget Ginn was out as well.

ATL played an injured Saints offense and had the refs giving them free first downs... yet they only won because of a bad throw by Drew. This game is going to look completely different and ideally should be a blow out. No game has mattered more this season.

This is what I am scared of.......

I know you will think this is rediculous

Atlanta's division records since 2006
1-5
3-3
3-3
5-1
3-3
3-3
1-5
5-1
1-5
5-1

No 2-4, no 4-2. So imagine if we beat Atlanta this weekend, and Carolina wins, then what?

Carolina at Atlanta probably becomes the week 17 SNF, and if the saints beat the bucs. What reason does Carolina have to win at Atlanta other than trying to eliminate them from the playoffs? Does Carolina even care about that? And honestly, why would they want to go out and win a road game, knowing they are going to have to go on the road against us the week after(unless the titans win this week).

So I'm worried that if even if we do win this week, we might lose to the bucs.

Maybe there is a miracle and TB wins this week, leaving Carolina to fight for their playoff lives.

Tampa almost beat Atlanta last week. It could happen.
I’m not convinced we can go beat Tampa if we have to. We aren’t safe. Yet.
Honestly if we don’t beat Atlanta at home we have no business in the playoffs.

That may be true, but can they beat us three times in five weeks, even at home? Any other time, no. They probably could this time because of us having a road division game before that. That's one reason why I don't think Atlanta beats us because they just went to TB and are playing us on five days rest on a back to back road game and twice in three weeks. The last time a team won twice in three weeks furthermore was in 2014 when Seattle beat SF. Three teams that were all much superior did it in 2013 with the exception being us against Carolina.

So if Atlanta can pull that off against us this week then I give us a fighting chance to pull it off too.

If we are good enough to beat Carolina in January a third time, I don't think it hinders us too much to play them on the road. What really is troubling is Green Bay couldn't beat Carolina and if they did this situation would have been a lot different. That's why I wished we had beaten the rams.
