The Brotherhood (1-2)
versus
The team in Nashville people who don't get Predators tickets support (1-2)
When: Sunday, September 29th, 1:00PM ET
Where: The Baddest Stadium on Earth (Roof expected to be OPEN)
WATCH: CBS, or In-Person
LISTEN: 92.9 the Game (Atlanta)
The Best Matchup Preview on the Net: HERE
I have no idea what to think about the Falcons. Here's hoping Dan Quinn can get this bunch firing on all cylinders. The season is played in quarters. Very important to be 2-2 through the first.
Rise Up!

Not so subtle brag: I'll be watching this at a bar in Aruba.

this is about as must win of a game as you can have 4 games into a season.

I completely fricked up the wording order of that statement lol

Ugh. This is yet another matchup where I think the Falcons will be outmatched in the trenches. But I do think the Falcons can make Tennessee one dimensional by erasing their passing game. We'll see.

Good guys should win. Titans are struggling offensively. Defenses are similar. We need a win!

I really hope for DQ's sake we win this game. This fanbase is as depressed as I've ever seen it.

Not depressed, but pissed off given the talent and huge contracts.
Quinn has to stop giving up big points early. 21-0 to Minnesota and 20-3 to Indy both by halftime. Makes it really hard to comeback in the second half.

Fair statement. It's one thing to have bad players. It's another to have good players, and not execute. DQ built a great locker room culture. It's my hope they respect him enough as a leader to be more disciplined.

My guess is his Bro Namath style will start wearing thin quickly if this team doesn't win on Sunday.

It would help if Matt would stop turning the goddamn ball over.

He’s leading the damn league in INT’s with 6.

He was spectacular in the second half on Sunday. I'm hoping that was a turning point for the offense.

He, and the offense were machine-like.
I really worry about Neal going out... He's one of those guys on defense we lean on with DQ's system.
I would like to see Kazee move to FS and Rico move to SS. We need some friggin' poise on defense.
I've seen flashes this year that we can be a really, really good team. But that's never been DQ's version of the Falcons problem. Our inconsistency is maddening, considering how talented the team is.
I'm always a big believer in the line: "It's the Jimmys and Joes, not the X's and O's." Our talent evaluation under DQ is the best we've ever had as a franchise. The draft classes we bring in under him, versus what we had with Smitty are night and day.
It behooves us to keep Dan Quinn. He brings in talent, and talent likes playing for him.
It's annoying that we're 1-2, but I don't see any reason to think we won't turn it around. If it weren't for the bubonic plauge last year, we likely go 9-7, perhaps even 10-6 again.
I almost like the fact these guys have heat on them. When you start like this, you really go back to the basics. I wouldn't give up on this team just yet. Really, really hoping we can get a win for Q on Sunday.

You’re right, he bounced back nicely.

The 2015 and 2016 drafts were great. 2018 looks decent so far. 2017 is looking rough:
Takk- solid starter, maybe slightly underwhelming
Riley- awful
Harlow- haven't heard from him
Kazee- outstanding pick
Hill- TBD
Saubert- traded
The lack of pass rush has been absolutely brutal and may end up being Quinn's downfall.

Ridley got mugged on that play

Quinn's job is on the line today, IMO. Lose this game and it'll be a 6-10 type season (maybe worse).
