Falcons: Almost All Games Indoors
Think only a few are outdoor. That could be a problem. More accurate routes, passing, kicking, less potential fumbles inclement weather.
Saints have 8 outdoor games I believe but we do practice in an unforgiving climate so it's not a big deal but the Falcons clearly have an advantage playing almost all their schedule in a controlled environment. |

Re: Falcons: Almost All Games Indoors
Falcons are going to be tough this year. I feel like it’s going to come down to us or them.
Hopefully their first playoff game will be against a team with an outdoor stadium and they will be totally unprepared. |

Re: Falcons: Almost All Games Indoors
Yeah but us whooping them twice will make 'em second in the NFC South. They will then get blown out in the wild card round by the Seahawks in Seattle.

Re: Falcons: Almost All Games Indoors
13 of the Falcons’ 16 games will be played under a roof. Eight of them, obviously, will be played at home:
Cardinals: University of Phoenix Stadium Texans: NRG Stadium Colts: Lucas Oil Stadium Vikings: U.S. Bank Stadium Saints: Mercedes-Benz Superdome Falcons: Mercedes-Benz Stadium |

Atlanta only has 3. The standard two against the Bucs and Kitties along with the 49ers. SFIAH |

Re: Falcons: Almost All Games Indoors
The big difference, though, is that out of 15 indoor games the Falcons won't have a home crowd in any of them.

Re: Falcons: Almost All Games Indoors
But they have to play ALL of their games as the Atlanta Falcons... which is punishment enough.
