acaton Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Bucs fan here.Wanted to say welcome to Tampa and offer the notion of a well played game between the Falcons and the Bucs and may this contest end injury free.We are a very young team with, what I think will become filled with top end talent one day soon. I look for this team explode on somebody this year however, fortunately for the Falcons this coming Sunday is too early for that to happen.IMO the Falcons will rip this young D-line a new one and as usual the slow starting offense will start too late to make up for our D.Falcons31-24That is all.

Quarterback Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 You have a great young QB, this is a inter-divisional rivalry, they had two close games last season, and the Falcons are coming off an emotional war against Vick and the Eagles last Sunday night.This is a game I'm worried about!

fansince78 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 The bucs always play us tough, even when they are not a very good team. With the team they have this season, it is going to be a great game. I am not "worried" (I will save worry for more important things) about this game, but it will be a tough fought victory for whichever team earns it.

birdz4i Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 think it should be a typical hard fought atl-tb game. hope it stays injury free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Negatorris Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I expect a neck and neck run throughout the second half, as always. Hopefully Ryan pulls ahead. At least the Bucs fans are better than the Taints fans.Falcons 30-28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vel Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I think we jump out to an early lead on them if the OLine holds up adequately. The Lions and Vikings had them at halftime down by double digits. If we can do the same and avoid a 3rd quarter collapse, we should win this one.

acaton Posted September 21, 2011 Author Share Posted September 21, 2011 IMO we aren't as strong defensively this year as last and I think that will bite us in the butt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Negatorris Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Anyone notice we collapse during the third quarter if we are ahead? This happened a lot last year, and we rallied to come back and win. The Bengals game is a good example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerhead Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 You Guys have a young team and are atleast a year way from becoming a great team.I like Mike Williams and LeGarrette Blount they are both only in their second season but look for them to become staples in that offence for years to come.The Falcons should be able to stop Blount after all you guys are only avg. 80 yrd a game on the ground .The Falcons want stop Freeman from airing it out but in doing so he will throw a few pics in this one and the falcons will turn those into points.The Falcons will have success with turner again look for another 100 yards plus.The Falcons should be able to take advantage of your secondary even if its the underneath stuff the chains and the clock move either way..I as well hope for a injury free game .. Falcons 28 Bucs 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*NiteFalcon* Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 aint no such thing as a sure win in the nfc south. heres to a good game (but of course with the falcons winning =) ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Man Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 There is a guy on here who is a Saints fan, who comes with passion, and loves his team, but is level headed and actually discusses football, with realism and logic as his basis. The OP shows the exact same acumen for football discussion. This is weird. It's like we're in the twilght zone of rival fans. As far as the game goes, I think this will be the game where we look to make a statement, and if Tampa does it's typical slow start, we could be up 14 or 17 - 0 before Tampa blinks. I also look for the No-Huddle to make it's appearance sooner than later on this one, if their defense shows any ability to slow us down, whatsoever. 31-24 Falcons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

innovativefx Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 IMO we aren't as strong defensively this year as last and I think that will bite us in the butt.I agree... you guys let so some "somewhat solid" starters such as Rudd... but I think players like that were holding you guys back. The young guys in there now are not as good yet, but have much more upside and will eventually turn the team around.Should be a great game as they always are between this matchup.Final note - Most Bucs fans are easy going and easy to be around at games. I've been to many home games (win or lose) and they always seem to just have fun. I've been to the Bucs field and it was a blast and I even wore a ATL jersey...

Carl927 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Here's to a solid game from our Falcons with no injuries for either team. Good luck to you and thanks for the classy post, but we will probably still be busy gloating over the Eagirls win until at least Saturday morning.

Durrtay Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 as long as talib is in roddy will get ignored again but luckily we have HD and jones to pick up the slack, and i doubt that anyone stops turner early in the season but still talib is dangerous... so i see a hard fought closse game the falcons win, oh and we woulda beat the lions...

Tandy Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Nothing is ever a given in a Division game. Both teams will play tough and honestly, it could go either way.I'll be at the game - can't wait - one of my favorites each year. I actually like the stadium a lot (except the canon - lol) and always have a good time at the game. Looking forward to it.Here is to no injuries - and 60 minutes of breath holding, physical, fun football..... and oh yeah, hopefully a Falcon victory GO FALCONS!!! RISE UP!

4dabirds Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Bucs fan here.Wanted to say welcome to Tampa and offer the notion of a well played game between the Falcons and the Bucs and may this contest end injury free.We are a very young team with, what I think will become filled with top end talent one day soon. I look for this team explode on somebody this year however, fortunately for the Falcons this coming Sunday is too early for that to happen.IMO the Falcons will rip this young D-line a new one and as usual the slow starting offense will start too late to make up for our D.Falcons31-24That is all.Welcome Acaton. I agree with your assessment of your teams talent.I will be in Ormond Beach this Sunday, any word if this game is in jeopardy of being blacked out? I'm trying to secure a ticket and some shuttle service to the game, but it looks like I may have to rent a car while there if I'm going to make it down to Tampa. I'm hoping to watch the game on TV, but the local stations in Ormond are out of Orlando and within the black out radius.Anyone else here going to the game? I'll be going it alone and need to find fellow tailgaters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
