Herr Doktor Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 This whole season has been a roller coaster. And pretty much what most of us thought. Highs and lows. I think on any given Sunday with the state of the NFL, poor play and parity, I think any team can win any contest. Should not surprise us if we blow out the Steelers or get blown out by them.

1989Fan Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 How well the Falcons match up ebbs and flows with Mariota. When he doesn’t do dumb ****, they’re fine. When he plays Mariota-ball, they’re able to lose to anyone, see the pathetic loss to Carolina.

INDFalcon Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 How well we match up you ask? You should know it is not about stats or players. It is all about Jesus and his pineapple. If the pineapple is rightly ripened, we will will the game, if not, it will go like yesterday's game. I wish I had an 8-ball to know what kind of pineapple Jesus will get.

SwampyMux12 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 IDK, the Steelers are bad with a struggling rookie QB (who does seem to be trending upwards). They are 28th in points for, 24th against. They are as terrible as us vs the pass (31), but statistically good vs the run (6). Not sure if that is like us though (nobody runs because they can throw all day and it inflates our rush defense stats - my guess is probably some of that comes into play). In summation, I think everyone matches up pretty well with the Steelers. FalconJim, Falcons Fan MVP and Killing Floor 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonDaLuvMaker Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Steelers are rarely this awful. But they are now, still have to watch out for TJ Watt. I think he returned last week. FalconJim and Falcons Fan MVP 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bombers79 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 As well as we match up against anyone. If you can stop the run….we have no shot. If you can pass the ball at a decent level….we have no shot. If we put the ball in the hands of Mariota to win us the game….we have no shot. If you have a mobile QB…we have no shot. if the Steelers can’t stop the run and have a rookie qb that isn’t Dan Marino then we have a shot.

ItsJustMe Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Same way we match up every week with every team. Mariota plays just bad enough to keep the other team in it. Then you have to hope he doesn't make a game ending blunder. Falcons Fan MVP, SwampyMux12, PokerSteve and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swayzee Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I think the homefield advantage will be a factor in the outcome. 27-24 Steelers. Before some superfan corrects me, even though the game is in Atlanta this will be a Pittsburg crowd. Pathetic, but true.

Killing Floor Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Steelers are in a rebuild. Which means they are making roster moves and scheming to improve to their former level. They’re a championship program with the desire to return to a Super Bowl soon. We’re also in a rebuild but we don’t play the ball to our best players. We have a running backs coach taking a stab at grooming our quarterback and a D line coach calling plays for the O, refusing to even consider the OC’s opinion. We have a roster made up of players cut from practice squads. The Steelers only have 3 wins. But they beat the Saints AND the Bucs so we owe the Steelers for keeping the Falcons in the mix. Can we beat them, sure. Will we? Falcons have 7 losses. Bengals and Panthers (2) beat us. Rams, Saints, Bucs, Chargers, and Commanders, those losses were giveaways. Those losses are on the Falcons surrendering and blundering on the field. I have no problem losing outright to a team that is playing better. If we don’t spot Steelers 21 points or fumble in the red zone or give up too many sacks, maybe we can compete. If our buffoon coach doesn’t reverse course after we get a lead maybe we can win. If our dumb quarterback can identify the big “5” on London’s shirt instead of throwing to his locker room friends maybe we can win. I hope we win. I will be cheering. And win or lose I’ll be cheering next game too. Go Falcons. Get your **** together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swayzee Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) 13 minutes ago, kenn.junior said: this could be a ridder vs pickett game but of course not That would actually get more than 17 fans to the game next week. So pathetic watching these games out of state and literally being the away team crowd wise. Super sweet product that obviously the fans love! When I had dome tickets, even the lean years it was nothing like it is today, and never a pro-away team crowd.

If anything, their defense is better than ours (not by a big margin) but that's about it. That's why I consider it a winnable game as long we execute well and don't turn it over.

octoslash Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 The Steelers have a serious problem this week. On one hand, they're tanking. On the other, the Falcons are their next opponent, and no team wants the embarrassing blemish of losing to the laughingstock Falcons on their record. So they just don't know what to do. This game could actually cost the Steelers a better draft pick because no matter how hard they try they won't be able to lose to Atlanta.
