    Here we go again. Rawls Questionable for game 1...

    At this point, I'm hoping they give the bulk of the carries to Rawls. He is the most complete all round back we have and we have to ride him while he is healthy enough to be on the field. If we have the Rawls from the playoff game vs Detroit or anything close to it, I'll be stoked. I view Lacy...

    Is there going to be a .Net survivor pool this year?

    Excellent work! This was good fun last year, until I fell apart around week 10! Appreciate effort involved in setting up the league

    This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: The Green Bay Packers

    Thanks for the info, I hadn't seen Spriggs so admittedly was just making the assumption there would be drop off from Bulaga, didn't know he probably was behind Murphy on depth chart. The point on the TE staying into block was what I was alluding to above, massive influence on this defense whose...

    This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: The Green Bay Packers

    Anyone know Bulaga's understudy? From early reports it looks like he is still not practicing and is a big concern for Sunday. With the DL that Seattle boosts, this could make a big difference to the packages that the Packers O utilise.

    Report: McDowell may never play again ( more speculation)

    That is an angle I've not considered, the possibility of somebody else (friend / family member) being involved seems plausible. I'm still amazed at the level of secrecy over this...strange that the story has not leaked out by hook or crook. Pete's statement to me indicates that the injury to...

    Ongoing RB Preseason Thread

    Can't quite agree that AC has as good hands as CJ. The play of him falling on his ass backwards trying to catch that dump off pass for a 1st down conversion was painfully hilarious from the 1st game. I'm not sold on Lacy in all honesty, looks slow to me in these pre season efforts so far...

    This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: NFC Divisional Playoff Edition

    Yeah we did smack you boys around in the first half. I was on the Falcons gameday chat and all the talk was about poor Matty get hit after he released the ball. In the 2nd half you adjusted by rolling Matt away from pressure but lets be honest, the huge difference was 2 long TDs due to miscomms...

    C.J. Prosise

    Not only was Prosise limited in practise, he wore a red no contact jersey. Pete said he would only play him if there was no hesitation, as in going into contact. Got to think this means he won't be ready for Saturday. Hoping he has contact tomorrow in practise and comes through it well. At...

    Fake crowd noise in Atlanta

    shame he makes an utterly asinine point about Rawls rushing numbers. There are some very good reasons why his rush numbers are so low this year, in no particular order: 1) he has not been healthy for most of the regular season 2) Wilson has been hobbled for first 2/3 of year and the rushing...

    Falcons fan here

    the asswhooppin quote was from that wonderful poster Treefidy. On the initial 'is it too early to be thinking about Atlanta thread' (and others) I said again and again, we may lose but thinking we are losing by some huge point spread is pure homerism. If we lose by 3TDs or something along those...

    Falcons fan here

    welcome to .NET, seemed like a fairly objective post on the game! I think most of us here are happy to concede Atlanta should be favourites, what has been bristling about the falcon fans on here so far has been there insistence that Atlanta will win by 20+ points and deliver an 'asswhoppin'...

    Jake Matthews vs Michael Bennett / Frank Clark

    Taking a more detailed look at Atlanta's recent games and my attention was caught by their left tackle Jake Matthews. Coming off a knee injury, he has struggled against bull rushers (Joey Bosa for SD) and speed off the edge (Panthers edge rushers). He gave up many pressures against Carolina...

    Fearless Prediction Division Round: Seahawks @ Falcons

    Either: 1) Get ahead and let the pressure get to Ryan OR 2) Stay close, let Falcons go conservative in 4th Q, stop the run and let RW win the game at the death No idea on the score. Lets go with Seattle 28- Atlanta 27

    This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: NFC Divisional Playoff Edition

    Couldn't agree more. the national narrative on this game is "Atlanta would have won if they had got that DPI". Its absurd for so many reasons. Not even going to the head slap, or the fact the ball would have been on the 35, or the fact it was 4th and 10, or the missed DPIs on Kearse. Ignoring...

    First Falcon game injury list.

    As he is better than Sowell. Not saying much but it is what it is

    Hauschka?

    Pete addressed this in the post game presser after another missed XP. Said Hauschka has been playing around with the timing of his leg swing or something along those lines - basically I interpreted it that he is trying to address technical flaws in his kicking style but its probably made it...

    First Falcon game injury list.

    Before this is jumped on by Falcons fans, yes we did have Earl We also had Lockett but he was still not at full speed as this was a few weeks after he picked up that thigh issue in the LA game.

    ATL opens as a 3.5 point favorite.

    You bring up this historical fact like it has meaning, that the divisional road on the road is some combination that is mentally in the head of the players and coaches? "OK team, we can win on the road in wildcard games, but divisional games? Holy freaking catfish lets just go home, we got no...

    A couple of fun facts about last game

    Yes agreed I've noticed the same thing. Wilson is underthrowing the short stuff and overthrowing the deep balls when we get behind the safeties (generally). I think the pec injury must be more severe than was let on. Also he definitely looks slower, and the more games go by, the more it looks...
