Barely squeaking by the sack-sack bears (only 23 points scored) does not bode well. 

Well.. It's hard to tell anything about the first week of the season. But there's going to be some type of a hangover. I feel like if you guys had lost that game, it would have been the beginning of a season like we had last season. But you won.. So who knows

Bruce Arians is a genius losing in week one like this. Now the pressure is off and they can coast to the Super Bowl.

I watched two pretty bad teams in the Jets and Bills (my youngest son follows the Jets). Bills were less bad but I can't say I'd be particular;y scared of them for next week; they did get some decent short yard production out of Tolbert though.

I have it on good authority from a Bills fan who is a friend that the Bills played Sweet Caroline after their win....

Its infuriating! the season literally JUST started and the refs are already deciding games... Damn

I thought the reason for putting replay review on the league office was to improve the process? I mean damn, if you're not going to overturn THAT call, what ARE you going to overturn???

I don't blame the refs on the field. Sure, go ahead and call it a fumble on the field just in case. If you call it incomplete, the play is dead. You can't review it. So, call it a fumble and allow the replay process to do it's job. The replay process failed horrifically.

Great stand at the end -- can't say I would have bet on us holding for 4 downs with goal to go. Big props to Brooks Reed making himself useful for the first time in his Falcons tenure.

Yeah.. And the drops didn't help. It's a good thing for you guys that the bears remembered who they were haha
