Playoffs: Falcons @ Rams it is!!

[Prime Time]

The Falcons deserve to be one-and-done in the playoffs after that steaming pile they left in last season's Super Bowl. What an embarrassment that was. They let down every NFC team and all of us who detest the Patriots organization.

I think it Atlanta is a little better than Seattle at this point.

I agree, but that's not the point.

 

[Soul Surfer]

I agree, but that's not the point.

Seattle's done so they're not the point either.

Tough matchup, really. They can run the ball and they have Julio. I wonder how limited Mack is.

Tru needs to earn his money, we need to tackle, and we need to be in Ryan’s grill all game long.

Offensively, don’t turn it over and give it to Gurley early and often.

They're the point that big game experience doesn't mean anything when the team you're playing is better.

Game is Saturday night too - short week should benefit the more rested Rams who don’t have to travel.

 

[PhillyRam]

this is why resting players was the rtight rhing to do... should be a solid advantage being rested, relatuvely healthy, and at home on a short week. And likely have already been doing some prepping for the Falcons.

With the sat game maybe makes resting the starters a good call now?

Hmmm.....a very insightful post to say the least.
An excellent observation. Of course Coach Mac knew this all along.....right??

Well, Sean asked me Tuesday night, I told him Atlanta will win, Tampa will win and Seattle will lose, so the Rams will still have the 3 seed

3 seed always plays on Sat night

I'm not happy. The Falcons are a tougher match-up for us than Carolina imo. I could see us losing this game.

Well given that it's the playoffs and all the teams are quality... yeah every team is dangerous.

Getting pressure on Ryan is the key.

Falcon media is already talking smack..."We" are their easiest route to the Super Bowl, don't you know...lol

Banged up and a short turn around for the Falcons... that helps us.

Despite being supremely talented, the Rams are young at some key positions. Last time the Falcons played the Rams, they got their head coach fired. That probably won’t happen this time, but it’s a good reminder that Atlanta played this team. Admittedly, they were very, very, very poorly coached at the time.

Where do people come up with this stupidity? No, Atlanta has not played this team.

Atlanta is a dangerous squad, that offense scares me. Gonna be a dog fight. GO RAMS!!

I agree, all 3 teams we play are going to be dog fights!

Internet and dipsticks doesn't mix well.

Whoa there, Boston, Atlanta fans are still a little sensitive about dog fighting.

Ouch, forgot myself lol!

How would we ever go to the Super Dome for a playoff game, since we beat the Aints?

Was referring only to the point if the Saints had lost today how we would have TO GO to that dome MAYBE and so many would be second guessing things. I'm long over it and glad we won't be in the Voo Doo dome this Playoff year. I think it comes down to RAMS vs aints in L.A. for NFC Championship.

The Rams are ranked #1 in points scored. The Falcons should be afraid of the Rams and not the other way around.

I hope that Coliseum field is not slippery and wet, or in crappy condition this Saturday and have TG3 ran amok against the Falcons.

Rams can score at will and the Falcons were lucky to get into the playoffs.

Cam Newton threw THREE Gift overthrow ,VERY BAD not pressured interceptions that still only got mostly field goals in a 12 point home victory. Panthers beat Falcons at Carolina's home field outdoors. Falcons looked very easy in that game NFL network played 3 times this week. I taped the falcon game today to study all week. I think the aints are gonna be our toughest match at home again. Won't have 2 secondary starters out this time. Gonna be a fun ride.

The Titans game was a great playoff preview intensity game for our team. Knew titans would get in Playoffs.
