bossFALCON™ Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 are not as tough as all of you are making them out to be. yes jim johnson does a good job bringing the blitz, yes the eagles passing game has been clicking, yes mcnabb is the best qb we've faced so far, but they arent the 07 pats a lot of you are making them out to be. our line should be able to hold up against them. if you guys havent noticed we have the 9th ranked offense in the league, meaning we CAN move the ball. we just need to do better in the redzone. i think that'll be fixed up this week. remember that ryan is a very smart qb, and im sure he's seen more film on the eagles D than any of us can imagine. he makes quick decisions and knows where to go with the football. our team has also gotten better on the road with every game we've played. the eagles have only averaged 4 more points than we have.only 3 teams have given up less sacks than our oline and we've faced pretty good pass rushers almost every week of this season. we have just as many weapons on O as the eagles do. roddy white, turner, norwood, we've seen how explosive harry douglas can be, we're getting laurent back, etc. we can beat them guys, they arent the toughest team in the league. so many of you claim to have faith in ryan, so have some faith in the kid that he'll lead us to victory against philly. he's a good qb. the eagles are just another team on our schedule.

Norwood all the way! Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 i used to think the falcons would put up a good fight but lose in the end. but now after seeing how the eagles have done so far, im thinking the Falcons will win. i mean they had trouble with the niners! the niners! i think we have a great shot at beating Philly.

JBOPPER Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 The Eagles are good,But Donovan better beware we have The Predator on one side and Hopefully the improved JA on the other not to mention Lofton lurking in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintsH8 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 This is not the same Eagles team that we faced in 04 or 05. We should be able to beat them if we are able to run the ball ( their run defense is not as good as the bears, buccaneers, or panther) we should be able to run on them.

falconsfan1987 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 That is what I like to see. Everyone on these boards needs to have a ositive attitude. The Falcons are going to Bit@# slap the Eagles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pick-ups Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Yeah they struggled with the 49ers on the road without Westbrook(probowler),Curtis(starter),and Andrews(probowler).But when needed they allowed -2 yds and scored 23 straight points in the 4th quarter to wipe the 49ers out 40-26.They`re now healthy and your on the road against without question one of the best defenses in the league.Expect the same results in your meetings against the Bucs and Panthers... Eagles 31Falcons 13Your Falcons are play outta their minds but come sunday they`ll find out that they`re in over their heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagles 31Falcons 13Your Falcons are play outta their minds but come sunday they`ll find out that they`re in over their heads.Where was the late game pickup against Washington? When a TD would have won the game? Or when you lost by 4 to Chicago? Or by 4 to Dallas? Interesting side note: We beat one of those teams, and the other two have lost to St. Louis. I think you Iggles fans are way too confident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotlanta84 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 all the experts are probably going to pick philly, and we havnt been picked too favorably in all of our games so i think the falcons go down to matty ices old town and beat the iggles, ryan will throw 3 td's, i can see it now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
