    This is a perfect tackle. I'm not saying the refs were wrong, I'm saying the rules are moronic and we might as well just put flags on Qbs.

    Lions falcons who we got?

    Lions missing two starting OL, starting RB, 2 starting edge defenders, both starting safeties, starting CB2

    And yet the Vegas line hasn't moved a tick.

    Falcons in a nail biter. I think the game is a 1 score game. But until someone shows they can stop the Falcons run game, I'll believe they can consistently put up about 20 points a game and I think the defense can be good enough to hold non-elite teams under that.

    It's been pretty amazing to watch. Everyone knows what they wanna do but nobody can stop it.

    I hope the lions go high octane early to try to get them in a hole to dig out of... but have a feeling we will try to out testerosterone them in the running game instead

    Falcons won’t get pressure, so I doubt Goff makes many mistakes.

    Probably pretty close honestly

    My brother in christ, it's been 3 weeks and in 2 of them they played the GIants and Rams 2 teams with garbage OLs.

    Do you honestly think this will play out differently over the season? Especially if Kinlaw finally realizes the potential Lynch saw when they effectively flipped bruckner for him?

    Easily best niner team since 98 when falcons got lucky Hurst was injured on the first drive in the playoffs. Maybe best team since 94.

    Falcons have been getting pretty good pressure so far.

    He’s a great player… most underrated signing of the off season

    Stroud looks to me the best of the rookie QB class.

    Problem is they've now improved to the point where they'll be good enough to have zero chance at an elite QB but be bad enough to never seriously compete. They're in a no man's land that gets coaches and GMs fired.

    If I was the GM, I'd consider trading anyone with value, tank for a year or two, and then rebuild with a bunch of picks. But that ain't happening.

    The Falcons have devoted three straight top 10 picks to offensive weapons and yet the offense is still pretty terrible. That's a very, very bad look for Arthur Smith. Dude isn't the genius he was billed as.

    Sucks that the Falcons lost, but look on the bright side.

    Saints couldn't beat the Packers.

    And more importantly we didn't get murdered on live TV like the Broncos.

    That's the worst loss by a supposed good team I've ever seen in my life.
