If We Win... What Does It Mean

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.

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?

    • His o loaded with swift, dj, Keenan and Rome was inconsistent at best. The d was bad. And the game management was atrocious and lost them games.  He was terrible and made the team worse. I wish they kept him
    • That is my point.  I think teams make a huge mistake when they pay their decent to average QBs top QB money because they feel that they have to match the market or lose their investment--There is no way, for example, that Tua or Prescott or Murray should all be making more than Mahomes--I mean, Dak makes $15m per season more than Mahomes. People say, "Well, when its his turn...." But that is not how it should be--so my point was that Bryce can be doing mediocre to good enough in 2 years, but the way it is going, you have to pay him at the starting QB rate--currently $60m.  So even if you think he will continue to improve, at $60 m, he would eliminate any chance for a ring---so my view is, if he is not elite, you cut him.  So you draft QBs now and see what you can make of them.
    • With two 4ths and three 5ths I’m hoping we can kill it on adding depth. Take a gamble with the two 7ths.  First 3 picks id love to address the defense. I expect Tuttle, Robinson, and Jewell to all be on the 2025 roster but not after that. Be a good time to add depth and let them develop a year.
