If the rest of the team.

This is why Preseason does count. Looks like the 1 string was not prepared for being on the field together. If we don't protect Matt Ryan a little better he is not going to survive the first 5 games.

If we don't stop the run better we are going to get killed when we play the Saints.

If we don't get the ball down to Julio more we are not going to tire out those defenses.

oh well, next week we play Vick and the EAGLES.... I want the team to put that Ghost to rest once and for all...

But they are not going to do it playing like they did today.

Now I am going to say it again... this is not Preseason Homers... it now counts.

I surely agree with the topic. Abe was just a monster today. A sack, deflected pass for TD, and HUGE against the run. And he FINALLY got a flag for being held. Honestly, if they called holding everytime an opposing tackle had an arm around Abe's neck, or grabbed his arm, we'd shutout EVERY opponent.

Abe is a beast. Best player on the team IMO. One of the best 4-3 DEs in football.

Agreed, Abe and Matt Bryant were the only bright spots today.
