Packers@ Falcons- talk shit here

Good, I want to beat you guys at your healthiest so there's no excuses.

Julio was injured in the Packers game but played through the pain. Is it the same ankle injury?

Turf toe. Been bothering him for last 6 weeks or so. Sat out a few games with it

I will say I'm excited, simply as a football fan, for this game. 2 great offenses. 2 improved defenses. 2 QBS playing at 120 QB rating for half a season or more. Gonna be fun to watch

I wonder if it will beat these ratings.

Doubtful. Dallas and Green Bay have tons of rabid fans and both teams are hated by a lot of folks too. Those kinds of teams always draw huge ratings. People watch to cheer for and against them lol

I fully expect GB to score 30+. They're going to need 40+ to win

What makes you think they won't? Dallas, Giants, Seattle, even Minnesota all have significantly better defense than Atlanta. Significantly better. And the Packers were able to hang 34+ on each of them. Rodgers has also managed to score 40+ points in a playoff game twice in the past, once to the Falcons and the other to the Cardinals (where the Packers had a significantly worse O-line and the refs had no idea that you couldn't grab the QBs facemask).

Frankly, I don't even know why this game is being played. They should just advance the Packers to the Super Bowl to prevent any further injuries.

I'm with you we should rest Jordy.

They may but Atlantas offense is infinitely better than every team you listed there including Dallas and your own offense obviously. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out. Like I said a 45-42 type game would not shock me. Ultimately Atlanta just has far more weapons and far better weapons so it's really hard to see them losing a shootout but you never know

First team to 50?

First team to 50?

LOL. Usually I'd call that hyperbole but in this instance you may be right

 

[Great Dayne]

First team to 50?

That's what it was for the GB vs Cards game in 2009.

Green Bay's defense isn't as bad as Atlantas. It has actually gotten better since they played last. Atlanta has a good offense, but Rodgers can keep up with them. I think this game can go either way. As a bears fan, I want to see the Falcons win, but it just seems like the Packers year again.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Atlanta could only score 36 on Seattle in their home dome and let them score 20 against them. Nothing more needs to be said.

Some how the plan worked against Julio back in week 8 with him having 3 catches for 29 yards and no TDs up against a decimated defensive backfield with limited experience earlier in the season of Goodson, Brice, and Gunter with no Randal or Rollins or Shields

To be fair, Atlanta was taking knees on Seattle's 2 yard line to end the game

 

[Chewbaccer]

LOL That was the Seaturds you played. They're not half the team they once were.

Falcons have an SOS of what .480 with their best wins being over a depleted and washed up Hawks team and in the regular season beating GB by one point with a last minute drive at home when GB was playing like garbage. Hell, even the Colts beat them by more points.

You're the weakest link left in the postseason. As I said earlier I was more worried about the Giants than anyone else because they actually have a defense. We ended up dropping 38 points on them in three Q's. Now they get to face the Falcons defense in a dome. I almost feel sorry for your defense.

Good luck to you and I will book everything you say just as I did to the Dal fans.

I'd say beating Oakland in Oakland was a pretty good win.

LOL @ Dallas having a "significantly" better defense.

<Waits on meaningless stats that include games from the first part of the year and doesn't take into account the improvement as the year went on>

Green Bay has by far the worst team from top to bottom out of all of the teams that made the playoffs but they do have Rodgers so they have a chance.

 

[packerzrule]

I love the fact that the Packers are the underdogs - they seem to perform much better
