Keys to a Seahawk win:
Offense needs to control the clock by running the ball. This is what I'm hoping for
Get Jimmy Graham involved, as he is a Falcon killer. Never thought about the fact that Falcon fans have seen a lot of Jimmy when he was with the Saints until reading this. Maybe this is one of the reasons there's a few salty fans running around on this board![]()
Don't let the Falcon running backs get into a groove Agree, see below
Get pressure on Ryan. Ryan won't fold but you need to disrupt him, because he will find the open man more often than not. Defensively for the Hawks IMO the game comes down to the Front 7 and Kam. They did a great job in Seattle earlier this year (less Kam) in the 1st half and will need to do it again. Ryan was uncomfortable and the run was stuffed, for the most part. Falcons did make a good adjustment rolling Ryan out to start the second half to keep him clean, and allowing him to connect on some out routes. Cooled down the pass rush a bit. I'll be curious to see if they incorporate some roll outs in the 1st couple of series of this game.

There is a back up at the door between annoying Niners, Falcons, Rams, Cardinals, and some others, seems like the annoying Seahawks fans are wanting the last word as they leave and causing the back up.

I just got here myself.
I'm not here to pump up my team. Instead, I just want to see what you guys have to say about this Saturday's matchup.
I'm excited to see my team back in the playoffs after a 3 year drought. I'm hoping the Falcons can shine in the spotlight, and not wither like delicate flower.
I'm curious to see if the Seahawks D starts off in man coverage or zone. I want to see if the Falcons D can generate some pressure, or get a turnover or two.
Aside from the last two divisional games (which are always tough), the Falcons haven't played any really good teams since KC, and they lost that one.
Keys to a Falcon win:
The offense has to get off to a fast start, score immediately, and then score some more.
The Falcon D needs to limit 3rd down conversions and get off the field.
The Falcons D is not good in the red zone, so they need to get some turnovers to keep things going their way.

Offense needs to control the clock by running the ball.
Get Jimmy Graham involved, as he is a Falcon killer.

Here's to a good game and no injuries. GO FALCONS!

Niners and Cardinals fans have really not been bad lately. Some are quality posters on this board.

welcome to .NET, seemed like a fairly objective post on the game!
I think most of us here are happy to concede Atlanta should be favourites, what has been bristling about the falcon fans on here so far has been there insistence that Atlanta will win by 20+ points and deliver an 'asswhoppin'. That's not impossible of course, but I'd render the chances unlikely at best.
For Seattle, I'm keeping a close eye on Reece's health, think it makes a big difference to our running game.

Who was it? Quote please? I'd like to tell him he's probably a bit too excited and shouldn't use words like "asswhoppin."
I totally believe Atlanta wins but I'd be more inclined to say somewhere between a 7-15 point margin of victory.
As for Graham... yeah , he was a Falcon killer back in the day... but the Saints used him a lot more than Seattle does for some reason.

I know... which makes we wonder why they'd give up Unger for him.
