They replaced Levitre last game vs Carolina after the first drive. After he was replaced by Garland Atlanta didn’t score a TD.

Garland struggles in pass pro. Atlanta’s interior is really suspect with two struggling guards and a center with a calf
Issue.

Fresh meat for a rested Donald and Brockers. No excuses, dominate inside the trenches on Saturday.

Atlanta is going to put three guys on Aaron Donald for this. The Beast is going to feast like crazy on Matt Ryan.

 

[Rainram]

But you know Atlanta will adjust. They’re not just gonna leave him in there to get eaten alive.

Rollouts, RB and WR screens, slants, quick passes to get the ball out quick. Probably lean heavily on that run game.

I certainly think if we get out to a big lead early, they’re toast.

Tell you this, this ridiculous Bird Brain fan base is in for one helluva reality check the way I see this matchup shaping up

Either that or WE are ( yeah, scratch that)

Guys we are living some good times here, I think we’re in for an exhilarating ride

I'm thinking Donald and Brockers, Etc. Etc. Play " Meet-Me-At-The- Quarterback" All Day Long!!

Ryan's not that mobile, is he?

Ryan can run. But he cannot out run Donald.

Donald is going to be like ...

 

[BeefJurky]

Aaron Donald... against a weak O-line... in his first playoff game.
That man will feast.

You forgot "wanting to prove he should be the highest paid defensive player ever."

I'm thinking he wants Ryan's head mounted on his wall.

We need to have matt Ryan running for his life.

We all know the weapons they have down field and wade will make sure they don't have time to get open .

Absolutely.
We need to hit him early and often. Ryan is a guy that has a history of throwing multiple picks a game

Also Michael Brockers has some wheels too. MB90 can wreck that interior line and smash through for a sack or stop the run.

OL'er Ben Garland has started 3 out of the last four games @ LG so he not green & has been in the NFL for 4 seasons. This will be his first 34 Defense. I do not think that Garland has seen any interior DL like an Aaron Donald though. All Pro Center Alex Mack has been dealing with a calf injury for two weeks now but should be about 100% by Saturday night.

With DL'ers Brockers & Donald getting some rest this past week should make them rough to handle one on one this Saturday. Both of the Falcons OT's are solid but Quinn & Barwin should be able to generate some consistent pressures on Ryan. I am still worried about our run defense & RB Freeman is very fast, tough to spot & tough to get down. Our run defense from our LB'ers will be the match up in favor of the Falcons.I expect both teams to score often with scores for both teams will be above the 30's. It will be a very close game.

Ryan can run. But he cannot hide.
