Saints @ Falcons

[UpstatePanther]

rivals beating up on each other. i find it interesting that the Falcons are having so much success on this vaunted NO defense. does this change anyone's impression of these two teams and how they stack up against the Panthers? 

 

also, i cant watch the game so i am curious, have there been any key injuries to either the Falcons or the Saints?

Jake Matthews is out

Falcons defense is terrible but I'd rather they won this game over the Saints. Matt Ryan doing his thing.

Beyond the first quarter where the falcons played the deep ball well, neither passing defense has looked particularly good.  It's been far too easy to move the ball and with our giant and complementary possession receivers will have success against both secondaries.

predicted in the offseason that the falcons were going to surprise and the saints were going to sniff the bottom of the division.

Can they both lose?

[lightsout]

Both have pretty average defenses and good receivers. I expected something like this.

matt ryan is looking studly ... gonna be a tough offense to stop.

[Cpt slay a ho]

saints d not scary at all.........cooks is going to be a problem though

Falcons with the ball back. looking to take the lead... i am surprised that the Falcons' defense has been stopping Brees & Co. has it just been some lucky breaks or have they actually been performing well against the Saints?

 

nfl.com's drive chart thingy is pretty cool, but its not like actually watching a game :/

Not sure why someone doesn't just create a weekly Gameday thread for all the other games in this section.

Cooks has looked awesome and is having himself a helluva debut

im also following the Pats/Dolphins game cus Mom is a Dolphins fan... so i turn to that webpage to see how they're doing and the most recent play on the drive chart was an incomplete pass to B. LaFell.

Been flipping between all games and I have only seen Lafell in on one play an he got zero separation down the sideline and the ball landed on the turf
