mashedpotato Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 The bears were completely collapsing our pocket while rushing just four people. Garrett Reynolds looked terrible. Actually saw a Dlineman look him off(made it look like he was stunting)and run and sack Ryan. Then I noticed the pocket we were giving Cutler all day long especially on his 3rd down completions. The eagles are a big play offense and we tend to give up a lot of big plays. Sounds kind of bad doesn't it. Honestly if Brian Van Gorder doesn't get more aggressive with this defense, we are gonna get slaughtered. I've never predicted us to lose until today. I really don't think we have a shot. It hurts me to say that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Martyr Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 The Falcons can win on any given Sunday...It just depends if we show up on both sides of the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconsfreak27 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Don't forget the Eagle's have a very young team. Weak offensive line and if we keep Vick rolling to the right we can win. Never lose faith!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK13 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I guess according to the NFL network and most of our so called "fans " someone needs to go and inform the team they have no shot against the mighty Eagles , although I still can't figure out why everybody is so scared of them , if they beat so what get over it because the seasons just getting started and I'm sure Philly feels the same way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman88 Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 we didnt give up a lot of big plays last year, that was just one game and they made it look like thats how we always play.... we play better then that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bossFALCON™ Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 i hope reynolds can get it together because he struggled last week. i like his size but i actually thought johnson had the better preseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastershake Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 I'm not expecting a loss, but I'm prepared for it.(I think) I can't go ape sh!t if I hear OUR fans chanting for Vick like last time. If we don't open our offense up and try to go deep before we get down by a couple of scores and become desperate, then MM has to go immediately. There are lots of ways to slow down a pass rush, like not waiting foe 3rd and long to throw down field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradael Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 My God why do we have such ******** fans? anybody crying over the Bears beating up out Oline is an idiot. They get to every top qb in the league with their front four. Why dont people use their brains around here? The Bears did the same thing to Rodgers,Vick, and every other top qb not named Brady. They were like #2/3 in overall defense last season. They have Julius peppers, Urlacher, and 2 other pro bowlers. Its not all the oline the Bears Defense is just that ******* good.What part of this cant people understand? Its not hard. They give Rodgers fits every time they see him.Actually they were ranked 9th last year. But I think last week's game had a few things go against the Falcons in the first half that forced them to do things in the second half that they aren't built for (even if they think they are) and it just got ugly.Falcons have a few things they can easily take advantage of though against the Eagles. In particular... the running game. And with this game being in Atlanta, I expect them to perform much better than last week... the Falcons have proven to be an average if not below average team on the road under Ryan's tenure so far.

mastershake Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 They shut down or contained Rogers all 3 times they played last year and the only time they got lit up was from Brady in the snow. They were in the NFCC last year and it's always hard to win in Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
