Their defense isn't that great. Tennessee shut them down and the Bucs just beat them.
That game went from a definite loss to a possible win for us.
Falcons have been very overrated this season. Their running game did come out very strong which helped alot. Not to mention when Jones is on fire he is on fire. But they are still over all...over rated IMO.
Our Defense will need to come to play, but yeah I agree.
Our defense won't be able to contain all those weapons, unfortunately.
I still think it's a definate loss, they gave the game to Tampa the same way the Bills gave it to Jax, I don't think you can count on those type of things every week.
Julio Jones will have 300 yards receiving against our secondary and Freeman will run all over us. Matt Ryan will look like Johnny Unitas.

Bucs defense really isn't any better than ours. Their secondary is trash. Not any different than Houston with Foster and Hopkins. Which we held well until late in the game.
If we had Carr and Gurley then year. But you can't be sure Bortles and Yeldon are going to come with it week to week.

Bucs have a decent defense, better than ours.
But we are going to have Gratz on Julio. That isn't going to be pretty.
Clearly people forgot what this team looks like on the field during the bye week.
I got ripped on here a few weeks ago for trying to tell you ATL is a fraud. Welp....
You've got to be joking. Atlanta is going to smoke us. Go back and watch the 2nd half of the Buffalo game, the defense got lit up by EJ Manuel. Gratz was burned repeatedly by some guy named Chris Hogan and a practice squad receiver. Now imagine Matt Ryan and Julio Jones. Hopefully Bortles eats his wheaties because he will need to put 35+ points on the board to have a shot.

Don't worry, it won't take long for reality to set back in.

Atlanta's offense has been sloppy the past 2-3 games with a lot of turnovers.
They are still a very talented group in the skill positions, and we haven't added many playmakers since they last blew us out.
Falcons have a tendency to come up short

The Bills did not give us a win. We earned it.

3 turnovers in 2 minutes, only one of the three not being a pathetically bad offensive play says otherwise. A win is a win but no need to sugar coat it.
