Woah now, let's not look ahead to Week 3 until we have taken care of Atlanta. :lol:

I really don't believe Atlanta is better then the bears. Some nice young pieces but nothing scary. Actually the 2 rbs scare me more then anything in the passing game. Their OL struggled last week. The Packers win 1sr down the pass rush should feast. 5 sacks min

I don't get the fear of this falcon d. Sounds like respectful coach speak to me. Jessie Bates is a good player. Terrell can play also. Other then that some older guys that best days are behind them. Don't see any type of pass rush to worry about.

Yea maybe me as a fan I'm underselling the falcons but this team is really nothing good. Perfect type teams to start the season against and kick the crap out of imo

I do. Bijan, Pitts, and London are better than any skill position players the Bears have. Oline is likely as bad, maybe a tick better. Not sure Ridder is any better or worse than Fields. Can run, but not as much of a threat as Fields.

They've got some nice pieces on D, Bates, Campbell, and Gravy Jarrett is no joke.

Are they scary? No. Are they better than the Bears, Yes, I think so. We clean up our early down issues from last week and keep up the pressure and we should be fine.

London wishes he could be DJ Moore. That one is not close

The rest I can agree with. I respect Jarrett and Campbell but they are not the same players they were. Their OL was awful last week. Slow the run and everything will be gravy.

I'll give you Moore. But Grady and apparently Onyemata were pretty good. Myers better buck up.

Packers fans often do this thing where they disparage players on other teams and falsely elevated played on our own team…in terms of talent.

Falcons def have some pieces lol. They are just young, unproven, and have some major holes. They are better coached than the bears, with better players at a few spots.

However, we do have a way better roster, but not by a mile unless Aaron Jones plays. We should handle our business, but this is in no way a gimme game

In worst case we may lack RB1, WR1, and a WR2 limited by the hammy. That leaves the O awfully thin for Love's 2nd game.

True, and now we are unfairly disparaging Da Bears. They are better than most of us are saying. What we saw Sunday was not an average team beating up on a cellar dweller. What we saw is that Love is a good QB and the Oline is very good and that the D is very good. What we saw is a 11-6 team beating up on a 6-11 team.

Doubs and Bakh will start. And now we just have to hope that Jones and Watson and Walker can play vs the Falcons. And that no one else gets hurt.

I will say, Derrick Brown is better than any DL we have, so his results are not necessarily generalizable.

The rest, though (and they had trouble all over)

It is fun and interesting that the Packers' OLine dominated the Bears' defensive front.
And the Falcons' DL dominated the Panthers' OLine...

but both the Panthers OL and the Bears DL are really bad units. And so we get to explore which of those things is more true this week

I can’t wait to be there! Since I live in Alabama, it’s hard to get to any games other than those in Atlanta. Let’s go in there and dominate.

And us against the Bears. So basically we know nothing yet! :lol:

I do still think we have the edge. I do still think Myers better buck up. But I anticipate a win if we play near as well as we did last week.
