How is this game any different from the Detroit game?

[gargantual]

Detroit killed us with the slot reciever and the TE. Luckily Atlanta doesn't have a very good Tight End or Slot reciever.

I think i will be screaming at the TV each time Trufant gives up a 3rd and 10.

Well... whatever happens, take comfort in the fact that it will never look as bad as this:

Geez. And people say Russell Wilson looks like a Hobbit...

The difference is we are going to need to score more than the 24 points we did against the Lions in order to have a good shot to win.

The Falcons are going to score points on us - no doubt about it.

Yep. It's going to be a shootout. We're going to need the D to slow them down as best they can and grind out the clock when we do have the ball. They can't score if they don't have the ball. Hopefully we can jump out ahead early and then play keep away.

Detroit was missing a key veteran in Burleson. Titus Young and Broyles played well. Atlanta's WR and TE corp is just a whole lot better. Ryan is due and the home crowd should be jacked from the kick-off on.

Higher stakes, better team. I expect the Seahawks to lay it all on the line. Losing Clemon's leadership is a big blow. Bryant, Branch and Mebane cannot provide the intensity and leadership Clemmons does. Wildcard is Irvin. He may be hyping himself up a little too much. He is lashing out against his doubters on his twitter account. He wants to prove something. We will see if he channels it into something good or will he put himself off center trying to do more than he should.

Should be a good game and at this point I have no idea which way this game is heading, nor the rest of the playoff season.

The difference between the two is ATTITUDE... Seahawks have it now and didn't against the Lions.
