More than we need to win this next game, we REALLY need Detroit to step up. (1 Viewer)

Well here's what Peter King thinks:

Sometimes a feeling just comes over me about a football game. I can't give you any science about this one, other than to say that if Jon Kitna has a little bit of time, he's got a chance to riddle a defense. And without good health on the Atlanta defensive front, Kitna will have that time. By the way, Kitna has more passing yards (1,883) than Carson Palmer, Tom Brady, Brett Favre and Eli Manning.
Detroit 23, Atlanta 16

Although he has to say this a few lines down:

Sixth-round Toledo Rocket Bruce Gradkowski runs his starting record to 3-2. Got a Man Law for you, Burt Reynolds: Jon Gruden is the best in the business at getting lightly regarded passers to play competently in the NFL.
Tampa Bay 16, New Orleans 13

Somehow I find it hard to believe the Saints will only score 13 points.

Lets just win our game against Tampa and we wont have to worry whether the Birds win or not because even if they do we will still have a half game lead on them. If the Saints have to rely on the Lions for help they are doomed.

This is the week that the Dirty Turds come crashing back down to earth. Sure, the Lions suck... BUT, they've had 2 weeks to prepare for the "new" Michael Vick and the Falcons, the have good speed on defense, and they have play-makers on offense and the mad-scientist Martz calling the plays.

Falcons get beat down by Lions 35 - 10

Then watch as the Turd fans turn on Vick again, and jump ship like the cockroaches they are. :0

Thank you, thank you very much. I knew the Turds would choke!
How sweet it is... FIRST PLACE BABY!

You'll see... YOU'LL ALL SEE!!!



THE FALCONS WILL GET DP'ed BY THE LIONS!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

The first thing I thought about when I saw the Falcons score was this thread .

Dude, you just quoted yourself. Twice.

Dude, you just quoted yourself. Twice.

Nothing wrong with that in my book.......he called it, as unlikely and farfetched as it sounded, and he earned it!!!

His quote of himself reminds me of that line in The Break Up with Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston where Vince is marveling at his invincibility playing Madden 2007 and states "I'm so good, I'm almost at the point where I think I can figure out how to beat myself!" You GO, DWD!

BTW......any hot tips on next weeks games? Baby needs a new pair of shoes!

I wish I could agree with you but the one thing that you forget is that the Falcons can run the football with the best of them. Detroit gave up 221 yards rushing to the Jets. I don't see the Jets holding the Falcons under 200 yards rushing and I don't see them staying anywhere close to the birds this weekend. If they still had Rogers clogging up the middle then maybe they have an outside chance at stealing this game. I hope I am wrong but I put my money on Atlanta -5.5

I lost my butt on this game and couldn't be happier. I ate crow in another thread but it was so good I am coming back for seconds.
