The Atlanta Falcons host the Green Bay Packers at Georgia Dome on Sunday 11/28/10. Kickoff time is 1:00 pm EST Discuss….
One of the game of the weeks in my opinion, between this, NO/DAL, and SD/IND. Matt Ryan has been so good in the Georgia Dome, but who's hotter than Aaron Rodgers right now? Not many people if any. The Packers defense plays similar to the Ravens who Matt Ryan torched on Thursday night 2 weeks ago, but the Packers offense can score at anytime unlike the Ravens. I think the Falcons will drop this game and the Saints will be tied with them for the NFC South division lead after a win over the Cowboys tomorrow. 28 - 24 GB
No way fellas. Falcons win this decisively and put any doubts about their right to be at the top of the Power Rankings to bed. Falcons 31 - Packers 17
Your nuts if you think the packers only put up 17 points against a mediocre atlanta secondary. I could see the falcons winning..but not with 31 points against our D thats been HUGE the last couple of weeks.
Nuts? The Falcons put up 27 at New Orleans and 26 against Baltimore. Both of those teams have considerably better, and higher statistically ranked defenses than Green Bay. I don't see it as a stretch AT ALL for Atlanta, whose offense has gotten more of a rhythm than it had in either of the games I mentioned, to put up 31 on Green Bay at home. It's certainly possible that Aaron Rodgers and Co. can put up more than 17 against Atlanta. But I'm counting on a more spirited effort from an underrated Falcons D. Probably just the homer coming out in me. And I can live with that.
I'm pretty stoked. It's being shown here on the West Coast as the early Fox game today too! Should be a showdown. Here's to a good game!
Roddy White tweeted from Waffle House about 45 minutes ago! LOL! That's some good game-day grub right there! Thought that was pretty funny. "Eating waffle house this stuff is so good" - roddywhiteTV Go Falcons! PS - I think the poll for who wins this game at the top is hilarious! 7-2 Packers in Atlanta? LOL! Yeah, whatever. :icon_twisted:
great match-up here of 2 top nfc contenders. if green bay plays their 'A' game, they may be able to outscore the falcons.
