Falcons "favored to win NFC South". (Yawn)

[Chaos]

It sucks we have to wait until December for the first crack at those bitches.

It makes me absolute sick to say this and it even makes me sicker when I look at their schedule and see just how easy their schedule is, the Colts are literally the only legit team left they play.. Other than that they have the Jags, saints and Bucs as well as the Redskins, 49ers and Titans and the Vikings.

They could very well go 13-3 or 14-2 and go one and done in the playoffs because that is the next time they will actually face a legit team is in the playoffs. 

Lucky bastards and their cake schedule, makes me sick

Ours isn't much different.

Ours isn't much different. 

@ Seattle vs @ San Francisco and Home to Green Bay vs Home to Minnesota. that is two games right there. My gut feeling is that we are going to have to sweep them to have the same record at the end of the year, I can also see us being able to get a wild card @ 10 wins.

[j2sgam]

Is there anything new? Every year they tell the same history... They just gotta hype these shitty teams but in the end we will see who ends up winning the division...again

It's similar to Hardy's last year here... "15 sacks"... Not that 7 of them were in the last games. All that matters is the W..

Everybody saw ATL look, at teh time, good against the Eagles, who most thought were a good team, at the time. I seriously doubt they saw the NYG game & how mediocre they looked.. Let the media jump on their 2-0 bandwagon while ignoring ours, I'm not with their media fodder, filling a webpage with words just to fill it...

They have a ridiculously easy schedule. We'll probably have to sweep them in order to win the division.

don't over look the skins. they beat the panties off of the Rams, who whomped the Seahawks the week before. they aren't a cakewalk. plus, they play us twice. if we're going to win the south, we'll need to sweep them.

I think the best way to beat Atlant is going to be playing our strengths while keeping Julio Jones from making too many impact plays. Ryan is  very good Qb and Jones is great. But if we punch them in the mouth all day in the trenches, don't turn the ball over, and convert 3rd downs,  we'll wear them out 

I mean,  that's a pretty simple formula to win in the NFL... Duh me.  But its how you beat anyone. 

[Galvatron]

I wouldn't give them the automatic W's over the Jags and Texans. The Jags looked pretty good against the Dolphins and the the Texans defense should wreck their O line.

Unless the Cowboys get a serviceable QB for Romo's absence, I can see the Skins winning the East as crazy as that sounds.

[teeray]

I mean it kinda feels like the media would become physicall ill if they admit the truth that is right there in front of them.

The 2 time defending NFC South champs are the still best team in the division.

Every year they find a way to pick ATL or NO.  Yet we keep winning it.

Guess we are just going to have to do it again

[Cary Kollins]

If only we had a shut down cornerback to cover Julio....

[Nick_81]

WTF is going on in here?  Falcons 14-2/13-3?  Tough team?  ROFL.

[GRWatcher]

But when taking into account schedules and Drew Brees' injury within the NFC South, an opening is certainly there for the Falcons to reach the postseason in Dan Quinn's debut season as head coach.

What? The Panthers don't exist? wtf There should be some talking points about how our defense dominates even without Luke & Star and how our offense scores & owns TOP without big name WR's. But, no. The story of a rookie head coach & a team that has to rally their offense in the last minutes to win because their defense still sucks (they just look better doing it?? Is that the "coach's" take?) is a better story. Ugh.
