Live from the Dome: Big D against the overrated (?) Falcons

"Hey! You there! Are you the one calling us overrated?" (AP photo)

"Hey! You there! Are you the one calling us overrated? This next one's for you, pal. " (AP photo)

Rob Ryan, brother of Rex and son of Buddy, has predicted his Cowboys — Rob is the defensive coordinator — will beat the Falcons tonight. Falcons fans will probably take offense, no pun intended, but really, what’s he supposed to do? Say, “I’m guessing Atlanta wins by 10″?

For those easily riled, here’s another in the lengthening series of Atlanta-isn’t-as-good-as-its-record stories. (I know a bit about these, having written one myself.) In this one, Gary Horton of Sports Inc. declares on ESPN Insider (link requires registration) that the Falcons have issues running the ball and stopping the run — no news there — and wonders if this offensive line will hold up and if the defense can improve its red-zone efficiency. These are legitimate issues, no question, but still:

About here, I’m waiting for someone to predict that these Falcons are absolutely, positively going to tick off the ‘72 Dolphins by going unbeaten. Maybe I’ll get around to it, assuming Rob Ryan’s forecast doesn’t come to fruition.

While you’re waiting for toe to meet leather, here’s another little serving from ESPN Insider, this from Jeff Gold, in which he states his belief that the Cowboys are a great underdog play tonight. (They’re a 4 1/2-point underdog. They’re also a sub-.500 team.) And yet another from the Worldwide Leader, this from the Grantland imprint, wherein Bill Barnwell claims the Falcons are “a tad overrated” — how, I ask, can they be overrated if everybody’s writing how they aren’t all that great? — but figures they’ll finish as the NFC’s No. 1 seed and Matt Ryan will win MVP. (Barnwell does not, however, pick the Falcons to win the Super Bowl. He likes Green Bay.)

Oh, wait. There’s one more. From Jason York of ESPN Stats & Information, we learn that the Cowboys have beaten a team 7-0 or better three times since 1991 — and all three of those teams won the Super Bowl! So that presents a real dilemma, assuming you’re a Falcons’ fan: Do you root for 8-0, do you pull for history?

I’ll leave you to ponder that metaphysical stumper, but I hope you’ll return for tonight’s festivities. I’ll be watching and commenting, and I hope you’ll join me. And I thank you, as ever, in advance.

It’s another week and another team with a negative point differential is being picked to knock off the Falcons. It is the NFL and anyone can win, but…I guess the prognosticators don’t get paid to always go with the favorites. Everyone is going for the homerun. If by chance the Falcons survive tonight…there will be a few hundred talking heads that pick the Saints in NO.

Doug Martin was about 40ish yards from breaking the single game rushing record today!!
Thankfully, Matt Bryant kicked that 55 yarder to save us the embarrassment of losing to Oakland.

I’d feel a lot better about this if Weatherspoon was in, but the Cowboys have some big injuries as well. This is one of those games going against a 3-4 where you hope Turner doesn’t get shut down.

Morning headline, ESPN, “America’s Team and Romo falter, lose to Falcons” That’s OK…..ESPN will think Dallas lost because they weren’t on their game. This is same group of writers who still think Philadelphia is a better team than the Falcons. To be honest, I hope the all knowing national media keeps it up. It’s begun to be really amusing to read the stuff they post every Monday.

In the glare of the national spotlight, big enthusiastic home crowd, playing a tradition-laden team. How have ATL teams fared historically in such situations? We all know the answer to that–and it the primary reason that we seldom earn national respect.

Does the city change that perception tonight, with its undefeated Falcons squaring off against a so-so Cowboy squad? I certainly hope so. If not, the tradition of “Losersville” will continue.

Do your job, Falcons. We’re tired of Losersville.

The reliable Bryant misses a gimme. Can you feel it taking hold, Falcons fans? That suffocating feeling that it’s simply inevitable. Forty-six years w/o a championship will do that. This is national TV, after all, and we’re favored, and it’s a full house. All those familiar ingredients coming together.

We’ll find out soon enough.

We just don’t have much of a pass rush.
That has been our weakness during the Mike Smith era.

What is special and so important about this game as compared to the next. Who gives a damn what the media experts thing. The goal is to win as many games as possible. It doesn’t matter what anyone thinks. The Falcons didn’t make their schedule. If we win tonight, people will say we beat a team win 3 wins.

Thanks for acknowledging the problem, MB. I’m sure it catches plenty that it should, but you wouldn’t believe the total innocence of many of the comments it snags. Here’s a good example from last night:

“Can’t say that I disagree with you on that one.”

Now let’s be honest here. If a filter stops that comment–and it certainly did last night–the AJC needs to take a hard look at its filters. This is supposed to be an open forum. Stop the vulgar stuff and the racism–of course. But completely inoffensive comments, like the one I cited? That’s wrong to the core.

I can worry no more, and all of you planning on voting for Mr. BO can just forget it now. It has been settled already.

So far our defense is giving up 40-50 yards per possession. It’s enough to keep the Cowboys out of the end zone, but unless we can pin them deep as we did on this drive, they won’t be punting very often.

BobDawg, with regard to the Falcons borrowing an Alabama or Georgia running back, they should see if they can get Mark Ingram on the cheap from the Saints in the offseason. I don’t know why the Saints drafted him given that shortly after they signed Darren Sproles who they feature in their offense. From what I’ve seen the only thing they’ve ever used Ingram for is to slam it between the tackles on the occasional first down when they don’t pass or to try to convert a 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1. Ingram looks like a bust based on production but he’s been given very little opportunity, about 8 carries a game. Reggie Bush also looked like a bust after 5-6 years in New Orleans but he hasn’t looked like one since he’s been with the Dolphins. I think Ingram can be an every down running back in the NFL if given the opportunity by a team with some commitment to running the ball.

Falcons are losing the battle on both sides of the line of scrimmage. If O-line doesn’t figure something out fast, it will be a tough second half. Right now, D-line is getting gashed repeatedly, too.

I’d think the pure laws of physics would dictate that when you go to make a tackle you slow down enough within 10 feet to change directions slightly if needed.
