I made this post on the Saints site, but figured I could bring it here too. What do you think are your teams biggest needs after six weeks?

1- LB- Our LBers may be amongst the worst in the league. There has been alot of talk of Jon Vilma, but I'm not ready to say he needs to be moved to another position or replaced just yet. But at OLB, we literally have nothing. The play of Dunbar and Casillas has been more than disappointing to say the least.

2- C- Honestly I'd say Kreutz needs to be replaced now. But who do we go to? I don't know what to make of Tennant now, but when De La Puente replaced Kreutz he didn't play much better, but I do think he played better.

3- RT- The play of Strief and Charles Brown has not been good. Brown seems to be the better pass blocker, but Strief seems to be the better run blocker. I haven't seen anything that tells me that either are long term solutions, though Brown is still young.

4- DT- Big Sed has been playing great ball all season, and I wouldn't say either Franklin or Rogers have been playing bad, but both have been a little disappointing. IMO, the top three needs I listed are far bigger than this one.

We need safties. We have Josh Barret starting at FS, and Sergio Brown as the backup saftey. Who? exactly.

Jets desperately need a better LG and a RT. Could use some better OLBs too.

Pass D needs to step it up quick. Can't keep getting burned by guys like Kafka and Tavaris Jackson
O-Line has done well protecting Matt Ryan the past 2 or so weeks, but at the beginning of the season, they did awful. Hopefully they keep improving
The whole team needs to get a quick start and hold the other team off for all 4 quarters...no more being outscored 60-something to 20-something in the 3rd quarter
Give Turner the damn ball
More explosive plays and attempts downfield. Matt Ryan should also work on not overthrowing the receivers all the time, everyone isn't julio jones fast
Quit with the penalties. The Falcons have been very good at keeping penalties down to a minimum, now this year it seems that all changed
Get back to good ol' Falcons football

Giving up hope on MJD ?
You fucking stupid?

MJD is the only RB this year to average atleast 84 yards per game.


BUT... We need a #2 RB.. Deji has been a disappointment.

An adequate offensive line would be nice.

Like you did this past Sunday. Falcons are 3-0 when Turner gets 20+ carries.
