Didn't see this one coming, almost a must-win due to the really tough schedule ahead. The running game looked great, Ryan made one terrible throw but looked amazing in the no-huddle. Defense is still not looking good. Crazy game that eventually turned into a barn-burner. Ryan hung in there in a tough one. That's a good sign. Carr never gave up either. This one ended up being two teams, standing toe-to-toe and slugging it out at the end. You should be proud of your team today, even though your defense is a real problem still. Happy for you brother man

Happy for you brother man Thanks, see you week 10. Which while I don't view it as important because I don't think Atlanta will be in any playoff position, could still be a good one.

Falcons vs. Raiders (Week 2)How about M.Ryan....#1 FF QB through just two games this season?!?! Good game. Shootout. T.Coleman may overtake Freeman at some point this season as the #1RB?

The next 2 games will be telling against both Super Bowl participants. Can we defeat either one? My guess is no, gonna need more defense. The one against Denver scares me more, but next week a pissed off Cam comes to town.

Well, 1 down one to go against the participants of Super Bowl 50. Knocked down the loser in an impressive fashion, Julio Jones finally has come to life. Now comes one of the many hard parts of the season, Denver and Seattle back to back on the road?! I expect two losses back-to-back.

Don't sell them so short my friend, after what they did to Carolina this team is better than you think...

Don't sell them so short my friend, after what they did to Carolina this team is better than you think... Team is better than I initially thought, and with the way the NFC South is this year they may win the division with an 8-8 or 7-9 record. But the fact is defense > offense, last time Denver went up against the best offense it didn't end well for the team with the offense, I won't feel bad to lose to them. As for Seattle, beating them at home is one of the hardest things to do in the NFL, the crowd + the remaining members of the legion of boom gives them an edge. If you would've told me Atlanta would start 3-3 before the season I probably would have said you were crazy, I'm not complaining but after the epic meltdown last year I won't take this team with anything other than a grain of salt.

It was an impressive win, no doubt. Glad ya'll beat them down like that. I don't like the Panthers and Cam annoys the hell outta me.

Colman might not play due to having the sickle cell trait? I guess high altitude could cause problems. I have him in Dive's Big Sleezy league. I need him. haha. But not if it puts him in jeopardy.

Dan Quinn came out and said he is playing. But I would bet it will be on limited snaps, so it is high risk high reward if you decide to use him.

So Deion Jones was just declared out for the game, Paul Worrilow, De'Vondre Campbell, and Sean Weatherspoon are also out. So Atlanta will play 3 LB's this week. I look forward to getting destroyed by TE's and RB's this week.

All I can say is wow. I've definitely been caught off guard by how the season has gone so far. I'm not confident in the team yet, I've been let down so much by this team (such as last year) that I can't afford to let myself feel good about where we are. This string of wins has to end and I think it will be this week, Seattle is much like Denver but they actually have a capable offense, I think the players being 2,200 miles away from home will affect them this week. Spending 10 days away from your family must be stressful to say the least. I don't know if the team has the emotion to keep the streak alive.

It's okay to enjoy when your team is playing well, and the Falcons certainly are. Now that doesn't mean you should start planning on Super Bowl though. Enjoy the ride.

Make no mistake this ain't the same ole Falcons, they have balance on a high power offense and while the defense is not great they are more aggressive this year.

It will be at least 3 years before I even think Super Bowl, I just need to see this team not collapse.
