Worried: Someone tell me why we won't get murdered by Atlanta.

Our D might well end up a good one as the season progresses. But I'm very very worried about the first game. Not just to lose, but to lose discouragingly big.

1- Our DL while solid has not shown signs of wreaking havoc in the opponents' backfield. Yes I'm told that's the style of 34 Romeo plays. But wait....

2- Without Tamba Hali Ryan will have all day to throw, especially considering point 1.

3- The thought of Roddy White, Julio Jones, and Gonzo, against our depleted secondary stresses me to almost puking.

This is gonna be one of those games when we see passes completed against our D with scary consistency. The only way we have any chance to win this is if we can manage long time consuming run heavy drives that would keep the Atlanta O on the bench for the majority of the game. Maybe that's why Daboll was emphasizing the run in the last preseason game so much.

Tell me something hopeful.

I didn't post this thread because I think the Chiefs are really inferior to Atlanta. If our healthy team plays their healthy team I very much like our chances to beat them.

What scared me here was the match up problem we were going to have with our starters missing on D. We were affected by injuries and Tamba's suspension at exactly the areas of their strength, AKA their passing game. Hence my worry. Frankly garbage time TD or not, we made the score closer than I thought it would be.

Dude, you go onto another teams messageboard, predict a win and then disappear when your team loses. Then, when you get called on it, have the gall to be offended by having to eat some crow

And as I explained, you implied Siler wasn't a huge dropoff from DJ, and when I pointed that out, you did the little brother thing " Well, I didn't say that". No, but it was a real logical interpretation of what you said.
