Now that's a team that isn't playing up to any standard. Sheez.

    Fortunately this isn’t exactly the Steel Curtain they’re playing, so it should be a bit of a shootout.

    Let's hope they can pull a W here. They need it.

    They won’t be involved in any low-scoring defensive struggles, that’s for sure.

    Stick a fork in this season. The defense has been gutted by injuries. Duke Riley trying to cover 40 yards downfield tells you a lot.

  • kelly_bkelly_b Posts: 1,464 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    Yeah, a one-sided shootout. Those injuries have killed us. And yeah, Riley in that coverage? Oof.

    Not likely, they might have the worst defense in The NFL with most of their stars out.

    Right now it's more like a drive-by.

    Hey, I'm Georgia born and Georgia bred and I root for all Georgia teams Ga. Tech included ( Except when they play Georgia) and rooting for the Falcons is like touching a hot stove. U R gonna get burned EVERYTIME. The first time I touched that hot stove was the 1980 Divisional Playoff Game at Atlanta Fulton County Stadium against he Dallas Cowboys. We had a commanding 2nd half lead and as we (Who've been around long enough) all know, we blew it in the 4th Qtr. At that time I had no idea how EXTREMELY HOT that stove was but in due time(Probably around 2016/17 or so or so I was done. It finally dawned on me that hey, u just CANNOT trust this team no matter whos in charge. Apathy set and that's where I'm at (With the Falcons) and that's where I'll likely remain. Remember kids, "NEVER EVER, NEVER, NEVER, EVER touch SCORCHING HOT STOVES." LOL.

    @MeR3htid - haha. I feel ya. I was born in ATL and the first game I went to was versus Theismann and the Redskins in the early 70's. We got destroyed. I was there for Big Ben, the Gritz Blitz, and all the dangled carrots since. I haven't given up but I get it. I guess when they blew that commanding lead in the Super Bowl I just felt cursed, and I'm not a superstitious person. But I may be gullible.

    I’m a bird dawg at heart, but it gets tough at times watching the falcons can be tough at times

  • WCDawgWCDawg Posts: 17,293 ✭✭✭✭✭ Graduate

    Julio is truly awful in red zone and end zone situations, maybe the worst. Now he's added drops to his bag of flaming crap.

    I'm turning channels when we're on defense, I don't have the stomach for the carnage.

    Curious. Why would one carry a bag of flaming crap? More importantly, why would one add things to it?
