What do you expect in the Atlanta game

[MTK]

If we could score more than 17 once in a while I might give us a chance.

This will be the game. Either with a Defensive TD added, or simply by getting a better effort than the first 6 weeks, I believe we will break the 20 point barrier (24 points). I can't disprove all the skepticism, but I am really hoping that the Skins do on Sunday.

I'm just curious to see how you all think the Skins will stop: Ryan, White, Jenkins, Turner, Snelling and Gonzalez on offense and keep Abraham, Lofton, Peterson, Biermann and Nicholas off of Campbell over a 60 minute game. I really fell for you all as a franchise.. we were there in 2007 with a 4-12 record so I know what it's like but it's clear that the Falcons have far superior talent on their team this year compared to the Skins.

We will stop your offense with a powerful defense made up of solid to very good talent in the likes of Haynesworth, Orakpo, Fletcher, D. Hall, C. Rogers. L. Landry. As for our offense? Well, I see Campbell spending a lot of time on his back.

You will score simply b/c our offense can't stay on the field long enough and will commit at least one back breaking turnover. No way you get 35. You will not break 30. Guarrantee.

In the first half I'm sure. I'll give you Fat Albert and Orakpo but Hall is set up to be embarrassed and your other DB's don't match up well against White, Jenkins, Booker and Tony G.

You must have missed Hall's last performance against the Falcons.

The Falcons are not all that and you have the scores backwards. Now fly back to your dirty city.

I guess you missed the final score when the Falcons played a far superior (to the Skins) 49er team.

Their O might be better but our D is going to provided a good smack down this week and our O won't need to be great.

No team has scored more than 27 points against us since we lost to the Pats by 52 in 2007. That is the longest such streak in the NFL.

Now, while I expect a blowout at some point this season because I truly believe the D will, at some point, start phoning it in 'cause our O is pure suckage, and while I expect Atlanta wins Sunday, y'all ain't scoring 30+ on us. Believe that.

You all haven't played anyone, that's why you're rated so high defensively...don't let early season numbers fool you. You all will be down around 15 or 16 by the end of the season if not worse.

agreed we have played a really light schedule so far (not counting the giants and eagles) but that point must also be weighed against the fact that our O cant sustain drives or win the TOP battle so while they have played poor offensive teams our D has probably played more snaps than most Ds and they are still no. 4 overall and no. 2 in passing.

go skins!!

ps - if fat albert or orakpo or andre carter injure matt ryans knee this game will you still come back here afterwards and rant n bitch how it was a dirty hit that sidelined your whole hawks in '09 campaign?
