I’m trying to tell him although they’ve been playing well their corners are banged up but they are allowing 69% completion (31st) and are 31st in sacks. I said give Burrow time he’s going to kill you. What am I missing? I think it’s a bad matchup for the Falcons and not surprised by the -6 spread.
The Falcons are a good young team from what I am seeing and Mariota is a damn good running QB that can beat you in
the passing game if you allow it. Kyle Pitts is crazy talented, same with Drake London and the wild named Slot Receiver they
have that I cannot yet pronounce his name. Grady Jarrett is great...
Still, we are used to a QB like Mariota who is not Lamar and I agree with your thoughts on them being banged up and Burrow
going off, this last game was just a tad of what him and Chase can do, let alone Boyd and Tee getting a little time to heal and
a hungry Hayden Hurst against his old team....
I like Tufele our new NT to help in the running game against a great running team and we just saw a team that attacks us
the same way in the Saints and Lou and our Defense will be watching all what they did wrong.
We win this game at home going away, but the Falcons come back and try and make it a game with Arthur Smith's coaching.
But don't be mistaken, the Falcons are a good young team. I like these guys.
