Will this game be more heated?

Atlanta was favored to go far in the post season. Carolina was predicted to be in the Andrew Luck sweepstakes. Atlanta really, really needs this game. It's going to be chippy unless they have already given up.

they want to get back to their running game and people around here are terrified of it for some reason, but their run game has been incredibly ineffective and their passing defense has been atrocious. both of these will contribute to their run game not being something that we will have to worry a whole lot about.

their pass defense will allow us to get on the scoreboard early and often. if that happens you can forget the falcons running the ball. you don't run the ball when you are behind.

also, any time they have turner on the field you can be pretty sure they are going to be running the ball. they don't include him in the passing game and they usually have to bring in a FB so that takes a couple receiving options away from them. you can afford to stack the box because you can be sure that they aren't going to pull anything over on you and even if they tried, they would be down a couple receiving options.

it's just not the scary thing it once was, even with out run defense struggling.

oh...something about their passing game. it's really not that good, if you haven't noticed. saints and the packers barely outscored us and they have a lot more powerful passing offenses. falcons won't be able to outscore us in a shootout.

^ plus Matty Ice throws water balloons now... He will make our secondary look like perennial pro bowlers!

Munnerlyn gets a pick 6 this week. I'm calling it!

robinson is going to try to hit steve smith helmet to helmet like he usually does and knock himself out cold.

Without Julio Jones, WE HAVE NO CHANCE!

SAVE US FOOTBALL GODS! EVERYONE ON THE PANTHERS TEAM PLAYS LIKE CAM NEWTON SO OF COURSE THEY CAN BEAT ANYONE!!

We dont need everyone to play like Cam to win... We just need Matt Ryan to play like Ryan and we win.

...The Saints game.. :(

I'm almost positive the Panthers will accept nothing lesser than complete victory after last week.

Game was only close because it was a home game. :coolgleamA:

Next time you play the Saints.... Should I even say?

Why do you think the only game you won was against another 1-4 team at home?

Yeah, like the turf you play on makes that big of a difference. Cam Newton > Matt Ryan, hands down, and he's a fuggin rookie.

I agree 100% bro.

Wow you changed my quote? That is some hardcore smack right there.
