Play-offs Baby! From the lowest scoring team to the highest scoring team and now hosting a WC game at the LA Coliseum - fun year!

I don't know a lot about the Falcons, but their fans seem to think they got the easiest schedule to the NFCCG with the Rams and Eagles. They have no idea yet how wrong they are.

Go Rams!

They don't seem to know much about the Rams. They will find out.
From a Falcon Fan: This is a dream matchup for the Falcons.

How Match Up v Rams

It's really unbelievable.

The Los Angeles Rams are playing a playoff game in the Coliseum. Who would have thought that a few years ago?

QFTOS: ATL, PLAYOFF GM 1, early edition.

I know about Aaron Donald at DT & that their defense is pretty good. They also have Gurley.

Their defense is absolutely not good

They're tougher and more physical than Seattle. Gurley is 1 man wrecking crew. But I like us against them.

they don't particularly worry me in any department other than Gurley. They are a young team with a young (the youngest) coach going into their first playoff game (kinda like we were in 2008). We'll see how they fare with the pressure elevated.

Well, they are a younger team with very little playoff experience. They are a really good team. If we can run the ball at all I think we can beat them

Their Offense will score. They got some weapons. If we don't beat ourselves, big if, I like our chances.

Their defensive line is better than Panthers. Andre Levitre will be huge next week. Ryan had tough time today with the pass rush.

This is a dream matchup for the Falcons. And the Eagles the week after. The road to the NFC title is the best it possibly could be for the Falcons.

Of course we'll be the underdogs (rightfully so) but how many times have we seen teams struggle trying to cheat the schedule and take a week to rest only to lose rhythm....
Plus young inexperienced coach and QB, not that crazy an atmosphere..

I won’t lie, the way we’ve played running backs this year, Gurley looks monstrous

I like our chances with their youth. The playoffs broke the best way possible for us. Certainly not easy but doable.

Its going to be like playing the saints honestly, except Gurley is one guy and not two. Hopefully Goff’s inexperience comes into play.

we are the playoff seasoned team, so hopefully it shows next week.

Some of you guys are severely underestimating the Rams. Woods and Watkins have elite speed and can burn anybody in our secondary. Kupp is a great slot guy. Plenty weapons there. Goff isn't some statue. He can make plays outside the pocket. The OL is big and powerful. They get a whole lot of push.

Defense obviously has Donald but Brockers and Quinn bring heat too. The LBs aren't world beaters but very fast as both of them are college safeties. Trumaine Johnson a big physical corner. Joyner a playmaker at FS. They are the 3 seed for a reason.

I like our chances against them. I honestly feel like they are the lightest competition for us of all of the teams in the NFC playoffs.

Here is my question. What is more scary?



Gurley?

Or

Kamra/Ingram combo?



My opinion it’s the combo. And we have slowed that down. Gurley is great. But I think we can handle him.

TO BE CONTINUED........

Who would have thought that a few months ago?

It is terrific. A lot of prognosticators are predicting the more experienced and seasoned Atlanta Falcons will probably win....they were the highest scoring NFL team last year and the only OL to play together all season.......but I ask.....ain't that us now? And I appeciated the effort the Falcons displayed last year and this season but I'd take our D any day of the week.

This is an equally enlightening WTF fact! I hope it's a memorable win for the home team.
