Run 'n' Shoot 698 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Given the competition in the division and that Seattle is likely to be a team in contention for the payoffs, is tomorrow's game, at home a must win game? I think it is; while also acknowledging that there is plenty of season left to still get into contention. However, based on the schedule and likely outcomes, getting off to a good start with a win is critical. Otherwise, there is a real chance at looking at 0-2 or 1-3 after the first quarter.

Slimm 275 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I always feel the first game is a must win to set the tone for the season. But you make good points about Seattle being in playoff contention. Sipifalcon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PensacolaFalcon 3,570 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 IDK if its a must win but if we come out and look like the Falcons of the last couple of seasons it will be my last Falcons game. I've grown weary of the mediocracy of this team and with the new NFL SJW initiative I really find myself struggling to justify watching any more NFL at all.

Macintez 1,810 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Each win is one win closer to winning the season. Every single one of these games matter. There is only one winner in the end, but, at the end of the day all I want to see... Is the coaching staff gameplanned like they want to win The players execute like they want to win and step out on the field with the expectation to win the game.

Wjcorner 3,757 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Defensively I think this game can showcase any growth this team has made with their biggest problem, consistent discipline. I’d be a lot more confident with the rest of the season if we contain Seattle and dominate offensively with all this fire power we have. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mtldirtybird 1,205 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 in reality no. But it would go a long way in the mental battle for this team BUBBASBEANS and putnam6 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Romfal 11,525 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 kind of...we've been starting slow the past 2 years and if we start slow again I think the faith in Dan Quinn will dwindle quickly. Week 2 is no gimmie game either so a 0-2 start would be trouble IMO. Need good momentum and no ******* around the .500 mark Additionally I think theres a legitimate chance that we won't have a full season and if we go in to playoffs after 9-14 games, every win counts. putnam6 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If the SJW initiative bothers you that much don't watch the game. I'm sure NASCAR can use more fans, there pretty much irrelevant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LightningDawg58 2,243 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 It is what it is. I just want to enjoy the game. I can't do another opener like the Vikings last year. If we play well and look competent I will be good with the outcome considering everything it took to get us here this year. BUBBASBEANS and Atl Falcon 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1989Fan 15,511 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 We started 4-3, 6-4, then 7-5 our SB year, losing the home opener in embarrassing fashion to TB, so I would say no. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dodge_birds_fan 1,732 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Seattle is a good team. I wouldn't call it a must win, but a must perform. Look like a good, competent team that loses a nail biter. That's ok. Come out like last year vs Minnesota? Heads will roll by week 4 BUBBASBEANS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
