Whole first page of the forum all sports media...he said she said BS. One day before game time and maybe one thread on here about the game...c'mon man.

This is not a rah rah thread, its a get back to football thread

With that being said, I know things dont bode well for us, but its a division game and no matter what level the teams are at...its at least a close game to say the 4th qtr.

So lets see how our young team bounces back.

Do you think we ditch the read option and go back ocnventional in the run game? I dont think it will be eliminated but I hope it goes from 80% down to around 30%. OMG I hope we play some press and man coverage but that wont happen. Also who will step up and grab that turnover that can spark the D like agaisnt the Saints?

It was c-rations when I was in.....20 years later and I am still constipated

Me too. I went in in 1980, right before MREs were introduced. The first field expedient meal I ate was C-rations, include a ham loaf in a can that was date stamped on the bottom, "November 1952." Ate that point, that ham loaf was a full eight years older than I was! But I was pleasantly surprised by most of the stuff I got out of most mess halls. I guess I don't have a very discriminating palate.

Someone brought up a good point. All 3 of Falcons wins have come from teams in the 2nd worst division in the league, the AFC west. They have yet to beat a team with a backfield as good as ours, a WR as good as Smitty and a mobile QB like ours. Falcons are owing off a coast to coast game that was preceded by a Monday night game. We had 10 days rest and getting Bell and Jonathan Stewart back.

Sure on paper the Falcons should blow us out BUT considering all the facts I just listed I think we have a bigger chance than people think. Lets not forget last year when we played the Falcons we had a 21 point lead at half time and if we just had the defense we do now, we would have blown them out.

I hope we're up by 17 going into the 4th qtr. Fug the Falcons and their record. Carolina will come to play and WE have something to prove. I expect a W... Not for it to be " close in the 4th qtr"

Matty Ice will return to his water balloon throwing ways... You just wait and see

I think ATL has bought in their hype, ESPN already crowned them this week as champs after the 49ers lost. ATl is mocking us in interviews, we are at a low.....this all smell like a trap game for ATL. I really think we bounce back. I just hope we dont let them score on the opening drive.

We need this win...we need the damn georgia dome monkey of our back if we want the division.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
