Was such a boring game I fell asleep as the first quarter winded down. 

Have to admit with the way ATL was driving the ball the whole first quarter, I was sure i would wake up to the news that atl wins, but instead this! 

Very nice to wake up to indeed

Same to both (except I made it until almost half).

Not wowed by either team.

Julio was Julio. Ridley was ghost, Sanu looked mediocre, Hooper isn't elite, and Ryan just couldn't get it done. As for their RBs, they looked very human. Their defense, as did Philly's, looks legit, but nothing our offense can't handle.

Philly better hope that Carson and Alshon come back soon. Ertz is not at Olsen's level, especially his hands. Ajayi is a power back for the most part. Defensively, they may be a problem, especially the pass rush.

The game was ugly, but it would have been extremely ugly without Julio and Agholor.

I could live with our secondary if it plays like Philly's or Atlanta's, but if it's better, then watch the hell out. Our front can be better than both teams'. I expect our offense to be better than either teams'.

I know it's just one game and the Falcons could still have a good season but hopefully this will slow down or temper some of the "The Falcons have no weaknesses!" hype I've been hearing from analysts.

Their weakness is the same as last year, the red zone.

Glad the shitbirds lost, but what an incredibly boring, uninspiring game. It even started out on the wrong foot with the weather delay.

I fell asleep at halftime and only found out who won when I checked my phone as I was depositing Trump statues in the toilet this morning.

I swear, Matt Ryan has got to have the weakest arm out of any supposed "top flight" QB.  Those deep outs he throws seem to just float out to the WR.  Good thing Julio commands so much respect on the outside, that is an easy pitch and catch everytime.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
