Marshawn Lynch.
That run defense also gave up 394 rushing yards in two games against Cam Newton's read option offense and another 129 to the Redskins.
Who do they get today?
Russell Wilson.
The Seattle defense was 1st in the league in points allowed, has given up 17 or fewer in it's last 3 road wins, and they actually do have the kind of secondary (size) that can handle the Falcon wideouts (although Tony G is a problem for anyone). In my opinion, 30 + points is far from a lock.
All of the wildcard teams that have run to the Superbowl in recent years have overcome all of the above problems you listed and travel didn't seem to be an issue for Seattle last weekend, so I wouldn't be so quick to lose excitement for your futures wager partner.
I happen to think you were onto something when you laid it down.
One could argue that Matt Ryan is due to overcome his tendencies in this situation, as are the Falcons ... but are they really?
Isn't Tony Romo ready? Every single time?
Weren't Marv Levy's Buffalo Bills?
How bout Andy Reid's Eagles .... ?
If the Falcons were hosting the Redskins, or Tampa Bay, I'd feel a lot better about their chances, but they're up against a Seattle team that's beating people up in all three phases of the game.
Your Cam Newton point scares me.... I thought about it late last night.... but it's too late
I already put in a ML bet on ATL for all the money I won yesterday..... I'm on fire right now and my gut says ATL get it done at home...
But all great points.....
I just put in 2 Tony Gonzalas props.... over 5.5 catches, over 52.5 yards...
GL TO ALL!
Btw, I owe a thank you to this site for giving me that tease that GB backdoor covered..... whoever it was I owe you one lol
