One day left in the 10 days of bad taste left in mouth

[usmcpanthers]

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?

Be careful what you wish for. The 6 days after tomorrow could be even worse than the last 10.

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

[usmcpanthers]

Ah yes my dad still talk about c-rats lol

So with the coordinators staing in an articel last week they are going back to the fundamentals. Do you think we limit the read option or its a smokescreen?

You guys should have been smart and joined the navy - I ate all the ice cream I wanted when we were deployed.

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.

My Stepfather was Military, so a good portion of my lunches during the summer months were MRE's.

Back then I didnt think they were tht bad, of course I was a kid and didnt know better.

Remeber the freeze dried fruit cup bar thing? I used to love that damn freeze dried fruit.

Well have another 6 after that so get used to it lol

Semper Fi, get used the lingering bad taste - Sorry

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

[usmcpanthers]

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.
