Live from Philly: Waiting on Falcons, Eagles – and Sandy

The skies are ominous above Lincoln Financial Field. (Photo by M. Bradley)

Whoa, Nellie. The skies are ominous above Philadelphia and Lincoln Financial Field. (Photo by M. Bradley)

Philadelphia — Nobody in the press box is discussing the game. Which does, you’d have to admit, look like a pretty good one. But the weather has superseded all.

It’s not raining at the moment. It’s cloudy, though, and the wind is picking up. The real heavy stuff from Miss Sandy isn’t scheduled — this assumes hurricanes hew to a schedule — to arrive until late tonight. Tomorrow and Tuesday are supposed to be the really rough days, and by that I mean really rough.

The forecast calls for intermittent rain throughout the day, which I guess is good for the Eagles. They have LeSean McCoy to run the ball against a Falcons defense that has trouble against the run, and the Falcons’ own running game remains mostly a memory.

Then again, Michael Vick does have trouble holding the ball on dry fields, and we shudder to think what might happen on a wet track. But what do I know?

Anyway, I’m happy to report that Team AJC — Mr. Ledbetter and I — are in the stadium, and we’ll endeavor to keep you apprised of all developments, meteorological and otherwise. I’d appreciate if you’d ride along, and I thank you, as ever, in advance.

Tell Julio that Benjamin’s fantasy team may be riding on him today. Maybe that’ll give him some extra motivation.

Do it for Benjamin!

[On a serious note, Mr. Bradley, y'all be safe getting back from up there. Sandy looks a lot like my mother-in-law, and she's almost as mean.]

How about some kudos to you Mr. Bradley, for picking the Bulldogs. This is one of the sweeter victories of the Richt era. Hopefully the Falcons keep the good times going.

Unless the Falcons’s run defense improved over the bye week, you’ll know how to spell my name after today’s game.

Tough game on road against Philly team that REALLY needs a win. Flacons win if they don’t turn the ball over and can get Turner going a little better. Pulling for Vick to get things turnd around just not this week!

Go Falcons!

Vick might be the reason we win today. If he hands us the ball, we have to answer with touchdowns.

No excuses today. Keep your foot on their necks for four quarters, and don’t let them up for air!

And as a Tech fan, let me say I’m as confident that the Dirty Birds can win in Philly as I am that my Jackets can lose their last four games! Maryland might be iffy, but I have confidence in my boys.

2013 starts now GT! Let’s ensure the Paul Johnson “error” ends…

Thanks, Steve. Just had a feeling.

Then again, I had a feeling about South Carolina against Auburn in the SEC title game. I believe that one ended 56-17.

I really wonder about people who will fly into an area that is about to be hit with a hurricane. A really big one at that. Seriously, what has happened to common sense and logic these days? Seriously again, we spent our honeymoon in a hurricane in FL years ago, but that’s a totally different situation. We were unaware of it until it was gone. We didn’t leave the room for 2 days so it wouldn’t have mattered anyway!

We ain’t winning this game playing soft.

The Steelers should go back to the Locker & burn those jerseys!!

Watching Fox pregame, and I think Tech should borrow the Steelers’ bumblebee costumes for the rest of the year. Slightly less ridiculous than the Honeycomb Hideout unis we’ve got now.

Johnson should get them as part of his severance package!

Here’s another GT alumni hoping that yesterday Homecoming turkey hastens the end of the current coaching regime.

Even when he was winning with Chan’s recruits, I could not stand that jackwagon’s personality or offense.

Could use “3″ players(veterans) in inclimate weather that would help this football team today. Brandon Jacobs(should trade for him), Albert Haynnesworth, and Plaxico Buresss. Buress is a good “bad weather” receiver. Right now, Haynesworth and Buress have no team.

The run blocking can be better but i think its more the running backs. You cant run a stretch play for Turner. Rogers has to be more explosive on his runs, he was faster at Oregon State.

Corey Peters looks like he hasn’t played in 9 months.

Where's the D?

Mark, been meaning to ask for awhile; If, offensively speaking, this is a pass first NFL, then wouldn’t defensively you defend the pass first, run second? And is that why, although we suck against the run, we’re 6-0?

It look as if Ryan and the Falcons are finally ready to cross that elite thresshole.

Mark Bradley

October 28th, 2012

I think the Falcons aren’t very good against the run because their front four isn’t very good at defending the run.

Mark Bradley

October 28th, 2012

Meaning: Lack of bulk.

Punanny Jones

October 28th, 2012
2:15 pm

The Eagles have the worst offensive line in football. The Falcons have an All pro defensive front

Falcons have a super good receiving corps, The eagles have a weak secondary.

The eagles Coach is a clueless loser who sacrifices MV7 to sell tickets. “come, see Michael Vick get thrown to the lions with out a O-line” Tickets… tickets…

This is why the Falcons will blow out the Eagles today.

The Mighty Quinn

Henry

October 28th, 2012

Well I’m confident we’ll score here. Whether it’s a TD or FG. O-line is giving Ryan lots of time and their secondary cannot cover our receivers.

Ryan saves the sack, which is a big play. Sack would have made it a 50 yard

Touchdown would have been the game ender IMO, but a FG is good too.

Happy with the score but we took our foot off the gas there. Questionable playcalling and clock management with that 1st down screen = no timeout combo

I still still disappointed that vick has not fumbled yet

Andy Reid might not be the coach after halftime. Jeffrey Laurie might fire him in the locker room right now

Yep, John Lynch must have money on the Eagles. Or he’s in love with Vick.

Mark

Falcons getting it done.

Feel bad for Andy Reid though when they showed him walking off the field. Job in doubt, team not playing with any urgency and worst of all the recent death of his son. My prayers go out to him that he find peace and happiness again!

Henry

October 28th, 2012

I think so too @ The Mighty Quinn. I think Phil is also Choke. He’s a hater. Obviously not a Falcon supporter or he’d be happy we’re up 24-7 at the half.

Falcons getting it done.

Feel bad for Andy Reid though when they showed him walking off the field. Job in doubt, team not playing with any urgency and worst of all the recent death of his son. My prayers go out to him that he find peace and happiness again!

Co-sign. Reid’s not a bad guy; he’s just been there too long. Getting stale. New blood needed.

Yes!

Onward…..play some D!!

Henry

Well we’re still up 3 scores. Defense get a pick or something.

Mableton Falcon fan

Silver lining here.
This works for one of my fantasy teams (with Bryant as kicker).

Mark Bradley

October 28th, 2012
3:03 pm

The screen was to make sure they got the field goal and made it a three-score game. That’s called game management.

kevkat

Don’t want too, but I’ll trade points at the moment..gotta finish drives with T.D though

At least if the falcons don’t give up any quick TDs, they should manage to win this with some time consuming drives and at least one more score.

Mark Bradley

October 28th, 2012
3:07 pm

That was almost it. Nicholas couldn’t hold it

Greg K.

October 28th, 2012
3:07 pm

That was the first sack in three games? Nice to hear. That says something good about the front line. But the poor running game makes me question the O line’s effectiveness. Or is it Turner who is primarily to blame for the lack of a significant running game? Your take, Mark?

Fourth down after Vick scramble. Punt for Eagles.

Akeem dent is the weak link. He is big reason run defense is poor.

How about a nice slow methodical drive for a T.D.

Henry

October 28th, 2012
3:14 pm

I wanna put this game away right here. 34-10 would damn near do it. That WOULD do it. If Nicholas catches that ball, the game is over. No way they come back down 34-10. But we gotta chance to do it here.

3:26 pm

We have trouble getting TDs because when Turner gets the ball those 2 yard gains don’t get it.

Any RBs available. Rogers can’t do it the entire game week after week.

Not complaining but not being able to get more than 2 yards per carry will catch up to any team eventually!

Falcons: Play 60!

October 28th, 2012
3:26 pm

“Falcons probably still won’t get respect”

probably not, they’ll say the Eagles aren’t a good team (though they beat the Giants/Ravens) and that the Falcons beat yet another team under .500

Joe Dirte

3:36 pm

Easy to sit at home and nit pick about little things huh?

Of course the Falcons are going for FGs now, because everyone on that field knew this one was over at halftime.

Smithy plays it classy, and lets the pedal off the gas.

This isn’t an Aint team that goes for 62………

how much time is left in this game? Has the clock slowed down?

Henry

they hung on again, a good team 13 pts behind would’ve scored

For all you Falcon haters not true fans. The Falcons just did what no team has ever done. Wrap your brains around that. No team had ever beat Andy Reid coached team after a bye (even during down years). Plus, they might have just sent Vick to the bench. I’ll take it, all your negative vibes can’t stop us. Rise up!

The players and coaches deserve full credit for this win–and they should spend two days celebrating–but no more…

It is absolutely essential that SOMEBODY start drawing up some running plays with high percentage of success–and more nifty screen plays–anything but Turner up the middle…

Reminds me of what Hank Stram (when he was a commentator) used to say about that famed Redskins running back, Riddle–”Diddle, diddle, diddle, Riddle up the middle…”

Or was it Riggins?

It’s negative. Every week all you negative fans come on here spouting your negative karma. Talking about how this is why we are going to lose today. I think fans like you are more disappointed when we win than if we would lose and you could say I told you so. Dwell on last year, I’ve been a Falcons fan my entire life… Last year is last year. It has no effect on this year. How many playoff games did Manning lose to begin his career? Did he cry and give up? No, not at all and I believe he turned out okay. Some of you are pathetic that you can’t enjoy a win. How many points did the Giants score on the Eagles? So get out of here with that weak mess!

I remember the Falcons 62 – Saints 7 game in 1973, was at the Dallas playoff game in 1981, the infamous Colts game in mid 80’s. Been through a lot of highs and lows with the Birds, and I’m enjoying this season. Go to any team’s blog and you’ll find the cynics. I prefer to live as an optimist. 7-0 with a hope game coming up. 8-0 is within reach.

This weekend has been all about negativity for fans. Saw it on the UGA boards before the game and see it now after a good win. We held The Eagles to 17 points without any turnovers that’s stout. And the pass defense for the Falcons has been pretty good all year. Wasn’t that one of our big weaknesses in the playoffs the last few years?

No I just think the Falcons went into Philly and just did what no Falcons team has done since the 80’s. I think the Falcons just did what no team has “EVER” done to Andy Reid. I think the Falcons just did what no Falcons team has ever done (7-0). I think Mike Smith just placed himself alone for Falcons wins.

You haven’t stated any truth Phil. Your only living in the past this is 2012. I mean if your going to be negative at least be realistically negative. I mean your just like it was like this last year so it’s going to be like that this year. You know I can find negative things to. But I’m going to enjoy this win because it was a great one. I mean the Falcons could be in trouble if Weatherspoon is hurt bad. The running game needs to deliver more. But at the end of the day we are winning so I’m happy. And more importantly at the end of the day I could care less what happens because I’m going to love my team regardless whether they are 16-0 or 0-16. Plus, no matter what any team that I like does it doesn’t really matter to my life. It’s only a game and I don’t make any money on it either way.
