Coffee & Contemplation Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) 18 minutes ago, bigbadbuff said: How are Packer fans feeling about this game Cautious. Atlanta has played well against us in recent years. Looks like both Julio and Ridley will play and Davante Adams will be out. Falcons are definitely desperate to keep their jobs and the Packers are heading into a bye week if I'm not mistaken. It's got the makings of a trap game all over it, but I honestly just think the Falcons are better than their record shows. I don't think it's a trap game because I think the Falcons are, again, better than they look.

Mastercheddaar Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I wonder how the Falcants are gonna blunder up this one? MC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartacus Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 With the amount of players out on the Packers it looks like a scheduled loss imo. Adams, Clark, Savage, Lazard, Lewis, now Z Smith may not play. That's a lot of blue chip talent not playing a game before the bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanedorf Posted October 5, 2020 Author Share Posted October 5, 2020 8 minutes ago, bigbadbuff said: How are Packer fans feeling about this game I'm optimistic for a home win, Green Bay has won 7 of its last 9 home games on MNF The best blocking WR (Lazard) and best blocking TE ( M. Lewis) are out for the game, so that may negatively impact the running game. And since Coach LaFleur built this offense around the outside zone run game - it will be interesting to see how he and Rodgers handle that challenge As per usual, it probably comes down to how well Rodgers plays "Rodgers threw for 300-plus yards and a passer rating of 100-plus in four consecutive MNF games (2015-18). According to The Elias Sports Bureau, that was the longest streak in MNF history. In those four games (Packers were 4-0), Rodgers completed 103 of 156 passes (66.0 percent) for 1,398 yards (349.5 per game), 12 TDs and no INTs for a 120.1 passer rating. (That streak was broken in 2019 vs Lions on MNF, when Rodgers passer rating dipped to 90) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y*so*blu Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 (edited) A team that compulsively blows leads versus a quarterback who frequently overcomes odds. Gee, I wonder what could happen here.

Gee, I wonder what could happen here. Don't underestimate the power of the Falcons to keep Quinns job by winning crap they have no business doing so. We somehow might win this just to keep the nightmare going knowing our luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jlowe22 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Bad as I hate it, I think the Falcons pull this one out. They're desperate for a win and probably better than their record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
