LIVE: Falcons’ win over Lions crucial to playoff hopes

DETROIT — This is what I see when I look out of my hotel window . . .

That's Comerica Park on the left, Ford Field on the right.

That's Comerica Park (Tigers' home) on the left, Ford Field (Lions' home) on the right.

This is what I see when I look out the back of my hotel coffee shop . . .

That's Caesars Palace and the casinos of Windsor, Ontario, just across the Detroit river.

That's Caesars Palace and the casinos of Windsor, Ontario, just across the Detroit river.

So yeah, I was tempted. But then I remembered I wouldn’t get a paycheck if I chose option No. 2. So here I am. (Besides, the casinos will still be there tonight. The challenge: Making a receipt for red and blue chips look like lunch with Thomas Dimitroff.)

The Falcons play the Detroit Lions today. I would never refer to a game in Week 7 as “must-win” but this comes pretty close. Here’s why: A win leaves the Falcons at 4-3 before the bye week, still in a contention to win the NFC South (which nobody is running away with) or a wild card berth. But a loss drops them further down in the division and playoff race, as they’ve already lost three conference games (Chicago, Tampa Bay, Green Bay).

A few weeks ago, it seemed the Falcons had little chance to win this game. They were struggling on both sides of the ball, the Lions were rolling and the team seemed to have no answer for stopping Matthew Stafford (a weak pass rush) or Calvin Johnson (a shaky secondary).

Stafford-to-Johnson still presents a problem. Those two have hooked up for 36 passes covering 564 yards and nine touchdowns already this season. But defensive end Ray Edwards finally is starting to make an impact on defense and Sean Weatherspoon has been strong the last few weeks.

Here’s Mike Smith on Edwards earlier in the week: “I really think that Ray is becoming more comfortable in our scheme. He’s been able to win the snap. When I say win the snap, his first step has been very quick and he’s been able to get on some edges. Sacks sometimes are overrated but we are seeing the type of pressure that we need to see from Ray.”

Another positive: The offensive line had its best game of the season last week against Carolina. Left tackle Sam Baker (lower back) is out this game and he’ll be replaced by Will Svitek. That’s only a major issue if you’re a huge Sam Baker fan but it does cut into depth. As expected, Julio Jones (hamstring) also is out. (I’ll list the rest of the inactives in the comments section.)

Detroit is struggling in two key areas: running the ball and stopping the run. They’ve lost Jahvid Best for possibly the season and will rely on backup Maurice Morris. That means the Lions will have to attack with their passing game. One huge key will be the Falcons’ defense on third down. They have the worst third-down defense in the NFL, having allowed opponents to convert 39 of 79 attempts (49.4 percent).

I’ll stick with my pick: Falcons win a close game, with Michael Turner and the running game being the difference. But I wouldn’t bet it.

Time to kick off the live blog. Then game time. I’m here to serve.

Here’s the Falcons’ full inactive list: WR Julio Jones, CB Chris Owens, CB Darrin Walls, C Brett Romberg, OT Sam Baker, DT Carlton Powell, DE Cliff Matthews. … WIll Svitek starts for Baker at left tackle. Harry Douglas starts for Jones at wideout.

If we can run the ball well and keep stafford and Johnson on the bench we will win this game.

Bear, I agree time of possession is crucial. I still am not a believer in our secondary stopping anyone. Remember our ability to make Tavares Jackson look like Joe Montana.

It’ll be nice when we actually use Darrin Walls for more than riding the bench. He’s like 6′0. A much needed height for a CB. He has a 28 inch vert and runs a 4.4 40-yd dash. He should at least be on special teams.

Jeff, in case the night turns you in to a casino millionaire and a retiree, what are your early thoughts on UGA/FL. I am really worried that FL has lost 3 games. A desperate Gator team will be dangerous and UGA is bordering on hitting 100 in the number of ways to choke against the dreaded team from Gainesville.

Some kind of “confrontation” just took place in the corner of the field, near the players’ entrance/exit tunnel. Falcons players were coming onto the field. Lions’ players were standing there in a big huddle. Didn’t see punches thrown but officials had to intercede.

Jeff, looks like we are a little beat up today with Baker and J. Jones out. I want to see about 35 rushes for Turner today. Keep that Lions offense on the sideline. As for Baker, with the way he is playing this year, not sure if Svitek is that big a drop off.

On a sepearated Atlanta sports note im stationed in Hawaii and Hawks players Joe Johnson, Al Horford, and Derrick Rose of the Bulls are a group of players scheduled to put on some shows for us troops out here. Good to see Atlanta players stepping out.

Have you guys noticed that Peyton II is ranked 22nd in the NFL in passing?

Yeah that’s a legend.

Listen up FOOLS, here is how you become a legend:

- Have your jersey in The Hall (Vick vs Redskins 2010)

- 1st Team to beat Green Bay in playoffs at Lambeau

- The Miracle at The Meadowlands Part II

- The overtime run vs Minnesota (2002)

- The 6 touchdowns vs Redskins in 2010 (Hall of Fame Jersey)

Being ranked NUMBER 22 in a league with a ton of rookie qbs is not elite :)

Every one talks about Vicks 5 TD day against the Redskins. But Aaron Rodgers threw 4 TD and Rushed for 2 TD against Denver a few weeks ago. Vick will always be glorified and put on a pedestal even if others play as well or better than him. It is what it is. Matt Ryan is not a choker and we all know that

Matt Ryan is as average as any QB can be I think Jason Cambell is better than him with a stronger arm. When this contract expires I would not resign him as my starter. Why didnt Atlanta run to the outside? Terrible offensive coordinator. SMH!

More times than not you can just touch Michael Turner and he will drop right to the ground. When you make the money guys like him make and you can’t get one yard? If it was paid on performance as it should be he would still be running but they know they are going to get paid no matter what and they just show up and do next to nothing and leave.

Lost opportunities seem to only happen to Atlanta sports teams. Grimes drops an interception, Braves Blow a 9 game lead to a team that looks like they are going to win the World Series, The bulldogs give away a game to SC that could cost them a trip to the SEC Champoinship(to get drillled by BAMA), And well the Hawks are a miserable organization with over paid players, bad attitudes, and suspect coaching, G Tech football and basketball suck(though I think this new coach is going to turn it around) and O we dont have a Hochey team which no one cares anyway!

I have never seen a no huddle attack where you hand the ball off to a fat running back who falls down at the line of scrimmage. Do we have any receivers who can get down the field? Can we please run some crossing routes? Can our QB please throw an accurate pass on a deep ball? watching the Falcons make me think that coaching football is the hardest thing to do.

Do the Falcons really think they are “wearing down” the Lions defense by running straight into the line for negative yardage?? You start to wear down the defense when you have your running backs getting 5, 6, 7 yards per carry and pounding the linebackers and DBs.

We get the ball first in the 2nd half and we need to make it 24-6. That would almost seal the win.

The defense has played balls out and if Grimes makes that easy pick in the endzone it’s 17-3 right now. But it’s ok. We’re still playing very well and this win is crucial.

4-3 heading into the bye ain’t bad. Colts after that and we can get on a little roll here.

1. Falcons can not make a two yard gain in short yardage situations, kind of odd for a “power running” team.
2. Lions first half pass rush has put less pressure on Ryan than any other team, demonstrating no matter how good your tackles are, pressure comes from the ends.
3. Opponents defenses heavily discount likelihood Falcons will use Turner coming out of the backfield because he has demonstrated little ability to catch the pass.
4. Brent Grimes is an incredible athlete, and our smartest defensive back.
5. Antone Smith’s thoughtless special team’s play may portend a long career in the CFL.
6. If you hit Stafford, you strongly cramp the Lion’s passing game.
7.Stafford lacks a lot of pocket presence.
8.There is not much deception in the Lion passing game, and except for Tony G’s break upfield in the first half, not much in Falcon’s either (but we knew that).

Jeff Schultz

Sorry folks. Internet crashed again at worst possible time. To recap: Ryan went down, tripped over Svitek. He immediately grabbed his left knee, which by the way Ledbetter tells me he always wears a brace on. Team’s medical staff examined knee on sideline for a few minutes. Ryan then left the field on his own power with 2 team doctors/trainers. Redman has been warming up since Ryan went down and will be in next series. I’ll let you know as soon as there’s an update.

whats wrong with Turner is that hes at least 15 pounds overweight. At 235 he was a big bruising back with some speed. At almost 250, hes nowhere near the same guy. The one long run (that should go all the way) he pulls off each game doesnt make up for all the 1 yard plods. Hes gotta slim down.

Been away from computer so couldn’t post till now, but been watching the game.
Couple of things…
Defense has REALLY looked better the past couple of weeks and looks good today.

However,
It is becoming VERY clear that our offense has serious problems. If it is entirely the O line, then so be it, and that is something that falls on Dimitrof for not addressing it. But, I suspect that there is more to it than that, and I have to say it again, Matt Ryan is NOT a franchise QB. Good QB, good game manager, but not an elite in this league.
Which isnt necessary, you can win superbowls without an elite QB, but you better be good at all other facets and have a great running game.

stop whining little girl…if you took off your homer glasses you’d see that your Matt is actually worse than Fatt Matt…just has a much better supporting cast as a whole…Fatt Matt only has Megatron
