Official Matty Meltdown Thread: Failcons VS Packers

Two teams duel out today for a Superb Owl Chance

Both teams have good offenses, crappy defenses.

Like seriously, no team this year has a stout defense in the playoffs this year. Like for real. The fuggin Patriots would probably be considered as having the best defense in the playoffs this year. Like how does that happen? /rant

Anyhow, who ya got?

I'm taking a step back from my personal hatred for the Falcons as a fan. I enjoy the game a lot better if I just watch the gameplay with no personal bias. 

That having been said, Atlanta has been known to be soft for a few years now. Not this year. 

Atlanta jumps on top of Green Bay, exposes their injury isssues and the Packers come back to earth. Crowd is going to be rocking too.

Falcons- 28

GB- 24

I have the Steelers upsetting the Pats

Pitts D can & will stifle NE. Their showing against Houston last week was very umimpressive & I believe you're only good as your last game.

27 - 24 Pittsburg

Falcons pummel GB .. on paper our D isn't good due to garbage points/yards but I know better. We aren't Dallas, more team speed on D, better tackling & more physical. We'll hit the limping Pack until they fold, garbage time score makes it look decent.

34 - 24 Falcons

I can see that happening. Falcons defense is better than GB for sure, but they're mediocre in my eyes. 

Which is like top tier in this year's playoffs.

I believe the Cowboys had a true better defense than the Falcons, which is where I'm holdin my horses. Will be interesting to watch and see how Green Bay reacts.

As far as Steelers upsetting the Patriots, it's a possibility. I think they got a better offense than the Pats, but their defense is to be desired.

Man no ones defense looks good or adequate to a Panther, Denver, Seahawk or Texans fan so I understand. Everybody can't have superstars on D. Lol.

As much as I want the Falcons to lose, I just do not see them losing in their dome. Falcons defense are at least average, while the Packers D is just too riddled with injuries in that secondary to stop that Falcons potent offense.

I also got the Pats. I just can't bet against Brady with the #1 scoring defense backing him up in Gillette stadium.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
