Damn Falcons look tough

[Matt Foley]

I believe the Panthers will make it to 3-3 and it's very possible they'll have enough confidence at that point to win at Arizona. But man, Atlanta and New Orleans both look incredible so far this year.

[Dpantherman]

contrary to popular believe, i think this defense is better than advertised. We've needed a big body in the middle so that Beason and Davis can roam around, thats the key, and they never had it. not one game this season. So now we have something to build on, everyone wants to talk about how the pass D is only good because the run D sucks, well Clinton Portis is a 1400 yard rusher, we held him to 55 yards. we are getting better on that side of the ball. im just worried about the offense.

Both NO and the goons have quarterbacks. We have Jake, a gutsy guy with a lot of heart, but not much talent. And worse, he's losing it.

jake never had it

[thejimmy]

Yeah, he did. But I admit it's gone now.

Yeah, he did. But I admit it's gone now.

I am talking about his mind

Falcons and New Orleans are peaking right now. It remains to be seen if they can continue at this level all year.

Last year at this time Dallas was 4-1, Buffalo was 4-1, New England was 3-1, and Denver was 4-1. None of those teams made the playoffs. So don't go booking your tickets yet, there's a lot of football left to be played.

Your right there is alot of football left to play but 3 of those 4 teams you mentioned are in the AFC, a much tougher league then the NFC. The Giants, Saints, Falcons, 49ers, Vikings and Eagles will all be in the playoffs, the other NFC teams that are even close their records are just pretenders

HUGE MNF on November 2 against the Falcons and Saints....should be a thriller.

We play the Falcons and Saints at the same time? fug! Who came up with this schedule?

[Johnny Rockets]

So wait a second......are you telling me all those idiot "experts" that had the nerve to mention the Falcons and the Saints in the same breath as the Panthers when it came to NFC South predictions might actually not have been as big of idiots as initially thought?

I'd rather be struggling now and finding mistakes in our team that we can work on week to week and helping us becoming a complete team then blowing out teams early in the year and not being able to see where your weaknesses are and having them get exposed later in the year with little time to fix them..

The Falcons and the Saints are good teams now, but to be great they are going to have to find what they did wrong when it seems they are doing everything right..

The Falcons beat the Panthers by just eight and lost at New England. The Saints have played two relatively close games in recent weeks. Both, though, have shown the capacity to blow teams out with their offenses.
