This team is incapable of beating anyone handily. We are going to give the Jags a good chance to beat us as we do with every team we play.

Jizz today... awesome.

(quiz+julio, perverts).

[georgiafan]

Very good to see Julio bounce back after a few rough quarters I also think its time for Quizz to get more touches

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Just got to get Julio consistent. I maintain the best way to use him is just get the ball into his hands on slants/crossing routes/etc. As of now, despite being a freak athlete, he has major struggles with tracking the football. Just get him the ball and let him make something happen.

[Bosanac01]

He is the best YAC receiver we have had in a long time. I think we need to keep him in the middle of the field, he seems to be the most dangerous there.

Definitely. Give him some time with his drops. We had a WR not too long ago that struggled with drops but became Matty Ice's go-to-guy and a great WR in the league (for a couple of years). JJ11 has the skillset of Gods, but no soft hands yet. A few catches he dropped would have handily been caught by AJ Green.

But check it out. He is on a team with Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez. They used to be some of the most sure handed guys out there in the league and I am sure their approach will wear on JJ11.

As for Quizz, if he can stay in to pass block, we can use him as our Ray Rice. That whole TD play from throw to catch was beautiful to watch.

I don't think anyone (atleast not with sense) is worried about Julio long term he has just had some drops and a bad luck with a hamstring. He is the kind of player that we need come playoff time and he has a few more games to get adjusted before that.

[Bulldogs]

One thing funny I noticed, what happened to all the "so called" Bucs fans on this site. They used to have a herd of 4-5 guys pimping Josh Freeman, seems like Caddy is their only regular now.

TBH no idea how were leading the Wildcard and in good shape to go to the playoffs and actually at the moment wed play the Giants, can't say I dont like that matchup, although playing up there would suck.

The biggest thing with this team is consistency. Its everywhere, 1 drive we look great, the next were getting dominated. Julio drops 2 TDs, comes back and gets 2. Roddy drops balls, then makes a cluth catch. Its everywhere, this offense has so many weapons its crazy it just seems we cant put them all together.

With Moore and Grimes on D, it makes them soooo much better. Moore alone this week was a difference maker. Spoon turning into a beast, we just have to get more front four, Abe has finally lost his step. Hes still a good player but not a game changer anymore.

As bad as weve looked at times I guess were at least in good position. Sometimes its hard to imagine us being able to win a playoff game, but if we get in we at least have a shot.

[Bosanac01]

Sean Weatherspoon is playing like a beast, he is showing us this year that he was definitely worth the first rounder. He's the best pass rushing LBer we had here in a while. The problem with him is that sometimes he gets too crazy and misses tackles because he over pursues and goes too hard instead of just waiting for ball carrier to fall in his lap when he's already in position to make the tackle.

i'm hoping the falcons can put it all together near the end of the season and ride into the playoffs with a lotta momentum. with such a young dynamic to the team, i feel having energy in the team through momentum created by consistent dominant performances could push them deep into the playoffs.

just like when the giants toppled the patriots. they were terrible earlier that year but put it all together when they needed to. if the offense and defense can both stay consistent throughout drives and then games, we could definitely challenge the packers. wishful thinking i guess.

and gtfo sam baker. **** usc.

[Bosanac01]

I have to keep reminding myself that the game is tonight.

[Bulldogs]

Blah, I'm going to miss an hour and a half of the game for touch football. Here's hoping we finally blow a team out.

[Bosanac01]

I will miss out the first hour and a half as well, and I doubt we blow them out. This team is just incapable of that.

Exactly. Either we get out to a huge lead and blow it (you guys might be in time for that!) or we string them along and keep it close.

[thefalconer]

all systems go

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Now here comes the boring.

[thefalconer]

willy mo is so worth the second if he can stay healthy.

Yes. Just get DeCoud the **** out. Nice depth and ST player, certainly not a starter.

[thefalconer]

Bosher has really turned it around. He's actually quite good.

[Bulldogs]

I saw the stats, but how did Roddy and Matt Ryan look? We really killed these guys.

Both looked great.
