TrufantIsland Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Rodgers is out! how do we win this one? Packers are 0-4-1 in the last 5 games. Our defense usually makes terrible QB's look great or above average. We saw Alford play awesome against the Bills, should we start him?

OldFalcons Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 The Falcons are going to be attacked by the Packers run game.....think I'm crazy ?Just watch....when teams make a gameplan to run against Falcons they have success.Look for a strong running game from Green Bay.

We saw Alford play awesome against the Bills, should we start him?I'm not sure I would have said Alford was 'awesome' against the bills... Manuel left a couple of fairly easy plays out there by throwing inaccurately to Alford's man, although over the course of the season I think he has definitly done enough to merit more playing time... at this point it's very hard to see what we gain from Asante Samuel getting so many snaps.As for the real recipe for success against the Packers: RUN THE BALL... I've watched the Packers play the last two weeks, and a few times earlier on in the season too, and they might be the worst run defence in the league!

Big_Dog Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Rodgers has to be out. Normal healing for fractured collar bone is 6 plus weeks according to Mayo Clinic website. Rodgers is at week 5 and I can't think he would be allowed to play. IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B_Lo_Touchdowns Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Don't bite on PA passes. Make secure tackles. I think GB pounds the ball up the middle. Our DTs gets no penetration leading to lots of yards after contact. I'm not sure but I think we give up over 100+ yards rushing every game. Packers wil run it and try to catch us with play action.
