If We Win... What Does It Mean

[beastson]

Do you think it means its just one win?

Doesnt really matter at all?

It gives us hope for the rest of the season?

Its the greatest thing now?

If Jakes does fine, do you believe in him? Or still dont

Should their still be criticism or not?

I mean what does it mean

[hairybeanbag]

it means we scored more points

[robtrox0]

If we win my hopes of a good season continues.. about Jake I hope it allows him to be more confident and play at a better level afterwards.

[N1kkadeemuz]

we ran the ball more than we passed

[holderoftruth]

It means that our running game was working

[First Down]

It's means that we will be 1-1

[ATL Falcons88]

You won't win. Get ready for a beat down tomorrow.

Nice first post

It won't mean a thing. Jake could post a rating of 120 for the next eight games and people would still hate him. Most have already made up their mind. Fox is done around here as well. I'm not quite sure about Peppers--he may be saved by the UNC connection.

I doubt the FO wouldn't turn down a good trade for pep next year.

[beastson]

Isn't Pep done after this year, so how can we trade?

[SMACKDAB]

It means somebody somewhere loves us very much, or they hate us to death by giving us hope again, only to be followed by more failure.

So.....not sure yet.

[Jangler]

It means my sacrifice worked.

[Achilles]

It means we're 1-0 in the division for one thing.

I think it will mean a lot to this team and perhaps help them form an identity to win this game in the Georgia Dome.

I think it's next to delusional to expect us to win this game, but if we did, it could be a catalyst for success.

If our running game gets rolling and our D gets off the field (and it has to happen for more than just one drive), we might get a glimmer of confidence. My main concern is that this team has a history of getting behind early, esp. vs Atlanta, and when Jake is forced to pass the ball to convert 3rd down, the other team is in our backfield all day. Plus, last year we had a hard time protecting a lead. Either way, this matchup doesn't favor us.

John Abraham has our number, Michael Turner has our number, Matt Ryan has our number and most importantly the Falcons coaching staff.

I'm resigned to an 0-3 start. I'm not usually a hater, but I have to be realistic. I don't know where all the cheeriness is coming from on this board. We tend to struggle against the Falcons, we can't catch a break, we are not playing well...

even if we play well (and Jake plays well) I expect our D to get tired in the second half and give up a lot of yards through the air.

The winner of this game will probably score 35+. Do you really think that's going to be us?
