This is actually good for them. Maybe someone steps up out of the group.

You need to add Hurst to that equation.....

From what I saw of Mingo in the pre-season, I'm pretty confident for him to go 6 catches for 70-80 yards.  He'll likely do more damage over the middle where Atlanta is weak.  If Terell will be on one of the X or Y receivers we still have access to the other side of the field and the middle.

If you have a solid TE (Hurst), well above average RB (Sanders), and a mid/dependable WR on the other side covered by a collection of JAG's, I'm not too worried about our offense.  Our line needs to hold Grady Jarret in check.  I am not scared of a 38 year old DE, a nobody DE, and the ghost of Bud Dupree.

Their coverage at CB and nickel outside of Terell is trash.  Jessie Bates is a very good safety, but I don't see his as a game changer without other working parts around him.

Our biggest concern should be; can we stop the run enough so Atlanta doesn't have total control of the clock.  If we can avoid 3rd and short or large chunk runs at inopportune times, we should be good.  If we can keep the TOP even(ish) and score at least 21 pts I see us coming up with a W.

Maybe I am wrong but didn't Atlanta finish last in our division last year?  While I agree every team can improve through the draft and free agency.  We also improved.

We addressed our most glaring need at QB.  Considering we had an idiot running the team for 1/2 the season and we still won 7 games with QBs like Walker and Darnold.   We have an Offensive Minded Head Coach, a great DC and we have solid players.  Depth is a little issue but we have a good team.

I predict that our true defense shows up on Sunday and our fan base blows up at how good they truly are.  

Bryce Young and Mingo turn into this years Burrow/Chase tandem.  

I think we go into Atlanta and Thump them good.  27-7 Black Cats.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds.

      Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.

      Hypothetical question draft content*

      Well I guess he should stop playing football. This was his defining moment and chance to prove he was generational and he failed. What a waste of football life..
