    On Paper, Atlanta vs Pittsburgh Should Be a Crap Fest of Football

    Falcons look just as bad as we do.

    They're giving up 30.5 points a game and only scoring 29.

    Pittsburgh is slightly better scoring and yielding 29 points per game.

    I really don't know what to expect here.

    I'm thinking that Atlanta will probably win because Matt Ryan isn't turning over the ball like our turnover machine that plays QB.

    He's probably going to complete 90% of his passes for 400-500yds with 4-5 TDs and no INTs.

    I'd think we'd have an advantage at home with good Ben. But good Ben hasn't showed up for a full game even in Pittsburgh lately.

    Something about this game though. Everyone probably expects a shootout, so everyone should probably take the under.

    Atlanta 26
    Steelers 23

    Feels like it might be close. But then again, I know we can't stop them and I feel like anyone can stop Ben right now.

    IF we keep playing scoreless 2nd halves like we have the past 2 games, this one will be UGLY. While the Falcons might not have a great team and have had struggles in the Red Zone, they laid 36 points on the Bungles.

      I guarantee a win. No worries about the Falcons.

        I posted this on another thread but Ryan has been on fire the last 2 weeks. 374 yards: 5 TDs and then 419 yards: 3 TDs. No interceptions either game. The O has to show up for the ENTIRE game and FGs won't get it done. The Falcons are going to score a bunch on this D.

          They dropped 36 on the Bungles. You have to think they'll get into the 40's against ours.

              VW replaced by a LB with speed.
              Hilton makes it back
              Keep Sutton and Cody off the field and let Artie float or sink
              Cam, Watt and Tuitt show up
              And Ben play consistent and get Vance more involved.

                If it’s 3rd and 3... throw it 5 yards to the open guy instead of 30 yards and out of bounds

                  I thought this be a good enough topic to jump in and see what's going on:

                  Hey Feltdizz, Hey Eich. What's going on around here? It's been a minute! Hey Ghost!!
