The Third Rider Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) The Falcons are 4-5 Their offense is 21st in yards, 25th in points, 21st in passing yards, 29th in rushing yards. Defense is 18th in yards, 14th in passing yards, 16th in rushing yards, 31st in 3rd down percentage, 32nd in sacks and 31st in points allowed. (Yikes!) Their top 3 WRs (Zaccheaus, Gage, Sharpe) have a combined 533 yards on 48 receptions and they struggle big time against man coverage. Cordelle Patterson will be a game time decision since he has an ankle injury and was limited in practice on Tuesday: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/32653875/atlanta-falcons-cordarrelle-patterson-game-call-due-ankle So what do you guys think? They finally get that monkey off their back? Edited November 17, 2021 by The Third Rider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBLIII Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Most important thing is play turnover free football and eliminate those stupid pre snap penalties. If they do that, I like the Pats to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBLIII Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Also the Falcons have the worst pass rush in the league. This might be a game where the Patriots find a lot of success with Mac. Waiting for the deep ball connection to Agholor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBLIII Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Uche to IR. We might see the first action of Perkins. Harris and Gunner cleared protocol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Third Rider Posted November 17, 2021 Author Share Posted November 17, 2021 On paper this has blowout written all over it, I am sure they want to finally get one over us really badly. Could be a trap game indeed, I am not sure they have the guns to pull it off though. We will need to commit a lot of mistakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter2_1 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 31st in 3rd down percentage, 32nd in sacks and 31st in points allowed. Well if that continues, then they are Fd against us. I think we have to assume TNF equalizing this a bit, and we shouldnt take it for granted. There's no way BB ever takes any game for granted, so if they play like they can and have been - we should win. If no C-Pat that actually does hurt them. No one else can run the ball for them.

The Third Rider Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) I have to think they double team Kyle Pitts all night long and have their other guys try to beat us. It's an abysmal matchup for them on either side of the ball to be honest, they just have to hope for some Thursday night magic to pull a W out of a hat. We are also not in a position to be giving games away. After the Falcons we have the the Titans, Bills, Colts and Bills again, we can take control of the AFC East in the next 5 weeks.

Gage is the type of guy that usually kills us but I am hoping Bryant continues his stellar play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Third Rider Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 If the guy with 159 yards on the year beats us then so be it. That would also mean their other guys are not doing anything either so game plan would be working as expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IheartMyV8 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Wanna see the offense continue some consistent clean football. No turn overs, efficient play, moving the ball. Not really worried about the defense in this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
