There's talk out there that EB's injury is serious.

The Suck for Luck campaign is gaining steam...

Watching the Vikings game with a stream. That pass-rush is looking great right now. Who would have thought they could get any pressure at all without Ray Edwards and Kevin Williams?

well, this game gave me a much needed realistic view of the Falcons, so now I'm done overhyping

1- We seriously need to learn how to wrap up and tackle. This was evident last season after we kept letting Aaron Rodgers slip by, but now it's not only quarterbacks, but pretty much everyone. No reason for Forte to just keep going without at least being knocked out of bounds or tripped up.

2- Thomas Decoud needs to get better at catching. 2 Easy interception opportunities and he just blew it

3- Secondary, as always, needs to improve quickly

4- What happened to explosive? That's the whole reason we drafted Julio, but as far as I'm concerned, we looked like the same old Falcons

Still got a lot of work to do, and I'm disappointed in what I saw today

Henry Melton is a beast...

That is all.
He had a great game (every Chicago defensive lineman did for that matter lol), but he was going against Hawley and Reynolds, both of whom were making their first start and are significantly better run blockers than pass blockers. I'd take it with a grain of salt.

Lol, how is Stafford a pansy for having leg cramps? Come on now. It ain't like he missed a down.

Hell of a win for the Lions. So nice to start the season with a road with against a good team. Stafford was incredible, Best was reliable, Calvin was Calvin. And I liked the was our defense played. Completely shut down the run game.

Good fucking shit.

I was shocked (and still am shocked) that so many Falcon fans bought into the explosive thing.

Not only is one rookie not going to change your offense, but you also have to have a QB who can go downfield on a consistent basis, which Matt Ryan has not proved he can do.
