I have to disagree. I think that both Vick and his offensive line will do a better job of taking care of him this year. Has had a good looking pre-season thus far.

D Hall will be the man...an emotional sparkplug to the defense.

i agree. i have a feeling that the D is gonna be perty damn good. the offensive running game should be really good again even without duckett. and the passing game isnt going to be hindered by lelie coming in, it only got better imo. i cant wait to see how the falcons do this year!

Look for Boley to have a great year in his second season! Played high school football with him at Elkmont and had to tackle him as an eighth grader in pratice cause we didnt have enough varsity to pratice. The Falcons did a great job of getting some more talent around vick and strengthing the def. so they should have alot better year than last.

My favorite player since before he was in college... He is going to have a great year and (believe it or not) I think he gets through it in one piece. The Falcons are definitely going to be playing in January.

By the way... We have our own version of a Vick here in Minnesota, Travaris Jackson... keep an eye out for him down the road.

john abraham is the man

[druzus]

wow- the falcons have impressed me the past 2 weeks. im trying to decide who im going with other than the eagles in the nfc this year. its the falcons or the seahawks. i like the addition of branch. but i also love the way the falcons team looks this year.

Well when the Second D of the DVD running attack went from penthouse to outhouse in DC. I was mildly concerned but, i like the change of pace i have seen from Norwood so far where Duckett was closer to a fullback than RB, Making my fantasy Sleeper Favorite Dunn the last 3 years lose touches in redzone! I like this kids Speed and they give him the ball on the Falcons side of field not redzone
