Let's talk Falcons

Playing the Chiefs on a short week

3 hundred yard receivers for KC next week

Trap game. The Falcons are bad but we’re primed for a letdown after two big games and this turd before the Chargers who are going to be good under Harbaugh. If the Chiefs play decent they win. If they play well they dominate. If they play poorly they may win but Atl has a chance.

I don't think it matters what the rest of the Falcons roster looks like, because Cousins isn't right.

They actually have the tools to challenge us: I like the matchup of Judon against Kingsley, and of course they have the most physically gifted TE in the NFL. That's the recipe to beating the Chiefs right now.

But it doesn't matter, because Cousins isn't right.

Bijan Robinson is maybe the most electric player in the NFL right now, and he's going to really test our linebackers. And I don't know if we're fully up to the challenge of bottling him up?

But it doesn't matter, because Cousins isn't right.

I am not a big fan of their receiving corps, or their back seven. There's lots of places for both Spags and Reid to exploit.

But literally none of that analysis matters.

Because Cousins isn't right.

we're going to win and make the handwringing about our offense look even more silly

On paper, Atlanta is really stacked in the secondary

I ****ing hate going against Jessie Bates. Dude has always been a giant pain in the ass against us.

Gonna be dialed in tonight to see what the Falcons look like against the Eagles. Not sure what to make of Cousins right now. Week 1 is so hard to evaluate now that so few teams play in the preseason. Our schedule over the next month is pretty rough, feels like we gotta have this one.

Last time the Chiefs played in Atlanta was the Eric Berry game winning two point attempt INT return.

And Albert Wilson was the Chiefs leading rusher that game... 1 carry for 55 yards.

This should be an innocuous regular season game but the NFL did the Chiefs no favors by making it prime time. This will be Atlanta's Super Bowl.

Chiefs did not play well enough in several areas yesterday to think they'll be any less than fully locked in.

We won, but it wasn't a great performance. You know these players and coaches are itching to get better, get in a game and give it another go.

Good running game, TE, dangerous receivers.

On paper, this team has the components to **** with us when we're on defense.

If they get good/decent QB play, it's gonna be a dog fight.

If they get their shit pushed in tonight I have a feeling half that roster checks out if Kirk Cousins is dogshit.

It's Atlanta. They don't exactly have a culture of winning.

I wonder if we can borrow Gabe Davis, since they have our old friend Mike Hughes
