If ? Maybe ? A Blowout On Sunday?//Falcons Sunday Depth Chart

Why start this thread? It's like you're begging for karma to kick you in the arse.
I'd rather go into the game thinking we have a good shot versus a banged-up, very good team and be pleasantly surprised if we win and it's not close.

 

We arent blowing out Atlanta imo. No way. Id truly be shocked. Theyd have to absolutely mail it in on Mike Smith. If we win a 27-24 or 23-17 type game Id be cool. We need to shorten the game, run the ball well, get a few plays downfield and generally keep Ryan/Gonzo/White/Jones off the field. Thats the recipe. If we make this a track-meet and try and out score in an up and down the field type of game we are going to lose imo

 

Why not just take it a week at a time? I get the optimism for this year and all the talk getting people hyped up. All the stats and injuries in the world mean **** in the NFL. Until game day and watching the 1st few series you have no clue as to how the game will play out.

 

Yes, because western religions are any better? no more digression.
but, to Boik's point, this was one of the best offenses in the league last year, essentially carried them to the NFC championship despite their mediocre defense.
I predict we win a very close game. The Falcons offense will have a couple of big scoring plays, but we win with a more balanced attack.

 

I don't expect to blow them out but anything can happen. Anything. Anyone expect Seattle to demolish SF like that? I'm hoping for a win, if it's a blowout yahoo! Takes the sting off losing Matt Ryan a bit

 

Let him start discussions he wants to start. What we say or think has zero influence on a game.

 

Bye weeks, blowouts, good lord. Some of you must not have been fans in 2010. I mean, don't let me piss in your cheerios, but personally I'm just going to enjoy being 2-0, going to really hope for 3-0 all while keeping in mind how quickly things can go south.

 

Thank you.

Though i disagree with your approach, thank you for not telling anyone else they have no reason to optimistic.

 

Even banged up, the Falcons are a good football team. It could be the Phins that are blown out. Anything is possible. I think it'll be a close game, and either team could win it. Either way, I think the Miami bandwagon is in for a population fluctuation after the game Sunday. We win... LOTS of people are going to pile on. We lose... LOTS of people are going to jump off. It's one heckuva barometer game, IMO.

 

Yes. I made Seattle a 16 in my confidence pool. Twice last year they really beat up SF and once blew them out. SF does not match up well with them at all as Seattle has the best set of CB's in the league and probably the best overall secondary. Davis was limited to 1 catch in 2 games last year vs Seattle. Seattle is their nightmare.

 

Paul Solai and Dustin Keller.

Steve Jackson..Sean weather spoon..

I'd say push there..

They have a defensive end and a fullback out as well..it's not that big of deal, both team have two great starters out.

 

Solai will most likely play. Keller was never around long enough to be a factor one way or the other, and through 2 games I don't know if his production would've been any better than Clay's.
They completely lost whatever semblance of a running game they had, and perhaps their best athlete on defense in Bierman.

 

If: Jimmy Wilson is playing in place of Clemons...negates the gimpy Roddy White.

If: Paul Soliai can go....Means the pass rush won't be at it's optimum and also likely means the blitz packages won't be as effective.

I don't think this team is quite ready to 'blow out' any team, much less an elite team. I think they are improving, but what about our performances against a weaker team (Cle) and a still rising team (Indy) indicate that we may blow out an injury weakened elite team (Atl)??


I don't see a blow out. That is not Philbin/Sherman's style, nor is this O ready for that....just my 2 cents...

 

And western religions are not flawed?

 

Add to that they have played well enough to win, despite a weak run game...

 

There does seem to be an influx of aqua colored glasses on these sites because of us beating an up and coming team and a weaker team, albeit on the road to start the season. Now, we do some damage in Atlanta and NO...that's a different story...

 

Fixed.

 

Once...against a STL team that almost came back and took it away.

I still think ATL is a good team, but they are hurtin' in a bad way.

 

Keller was our projected starter, two weeks into the season doesn't diminish the loss,it counts as a loss of a weapon (imagine our 12 personnel package)

If Solai does play than I will say we have an advantage when it comes to them being banged up, but if he doesn't, and Clemmons doesn't, then it's a draw imo.

 

We probably needed the injuries to actually have a fair chance of even winning.

 

Go Dolphins! Still I would take any Eastern Religion over this. Sounds so sad.

 

Funny, your "fear based philosophy" sounds much worse than my joking about karma. yet you throw criticism my way?
at least my fear seems reasonable

 

Clemons is not practicing..really, it's even if Solai, Keller and Clemmons is out..

 

Crap. When Did He Get Hurt In Sundays Game. He Was In On That Last Series. We Are In Trouble If Jimmy Wilson Starts At FS.....

 

No word just that he's not in pads like the rest, we'll see.

 

I think whether Roddy White plays is going to be pretty key.

That receivers unit with Roddy healthy and Matt Ryan throwing the football has the potential to just be unstoppable at times. Roddy White, Julio Jones, Harry Douglas and Tony Gonzalez. That's very formidable. There will be games those guys look like the Patriots/Saints/Packers offenses of the last few years. You just have to hope it's not our game.

 

I'm not buying the whole Falcons injury thing. I'm going to watch the game with the mindset that they're 100% healthy and dangerous offensively. For as "gimpy" as Jones was suppose to be the guy pretty much took over the game against the Rams. Lots of teams have injuries, they limp around but when the ball is snapped they're able to shake it off for a moment and be explosive.

 

I don't think the Dolphins are good enough yet to blow out anyone, especially a team like the Falcons. If there is a blow out I expect us to be on the receiving end as they have the weapons to score in a hurry.

I'm starting to feel a little more confident for this game due to all the injuries on the Falcons. Factor in the heat and the Dolphins may actually be favourites for this game.

Going to be a close, nerve wracking game that I just hope this Dolphins come out on top of.

 

The bolded is key....

I'm not playing it cautious, just realistic. I'm not enamored because we beat two teams that (Cle) we should have beaten and another in (Indy) that we could have beaten and are likely very even with, as development goes, with an edge to Indy because of the QB....

I just don't see that we area suddenly this great team that is likely to beat a team we should NOT beat, and certainly not blow them out....

 

I'm sorry Deej...I gotta agree with others here, how can you say that Keller is part of the equation ?? He's not. That hit likely not only ended his year, but likely his Fins career as well before it even started. I can't figure him as an asset or loss any longer...

 

Threads on getting home field advantage and now blowing out one of the better teams in the league, talk about putting the cart before the horse.

 

I completely cannot understand why Bro, Dustin Keller played two weeks ago, iin the regular season, he was gonna be a major part of our offense, it just so happens we have a good enough team that responded with a depth player, He's out of our lineup, so, eye for eye, I'll remove Jackson from theirs, if Clemmons is out, then I'll go weatherspoon for them, Solai is out so I'll go brieman for them..

That's even Steven Larry, no two ways about it, Keller was gonna be the man in this offense and we have to make up for it, and we don't have the luxury of running what would of been a wicked 12 personnel package, that's called being a team that overcomes, give credit to the staff and the payers for their resolve..Atlanta has yet to show that they can play as well without one of their best weapons.

 

This thread is why I hate/love Dolphins fans
