This is the game where the Falcons finally get a chance to prove themselves against a blah blah blah. At this point, the team has nothing left to prove to any of us, but it sure would be nice to watch them put a whupping on the team on the other end of our first and only Super Bowl loss.
Let's just enjoy another day of football, and hopefully one that's just as good as the season has been in general. Join me after the jump.
Who? Atlanta Falcons vs. Denver Broncos, 1 p.m. ET
Where? Georgia Dome, Atlanta, Georgia
Weather? If you've got any weather at all, there's a hole in the roof.
Fun Fact?The Broncos have not yet faced an opponent with a better record than their own this year. That's a little bit sad.
Injuries? OT Sam Baker is still out. DT Kindal Moorehead is doubtful to play. Our esteemed list of questionables includes K Jason Elam (!), CB Brent Grimes and DT Grady Jackson. DE John Abraham, LB Michael Boley, RB Michael Turner and OT Todd Weiner are all probable.
The Bronc-a-donks will be missing LBs D.J. Williams and Nate Webster, alongside S Marlon McCree. RB Selvin Young is doubtful, while CB Champ Bailey (my most feared defensive Bronco) is questionable to play. TE Tony Scheffler is probable and expected to play.
Odds? Atlanta over Denver 6.0, O/U 51.0
Foe? Mile High Report is one of the best blogs out there period, nevermind just about the Broncos. There'll be a huge contingent of Broncos fans going over there tomorrow, so be sure to stop by and give them hell of some nature.
GO FALCONS! Let's buck these Broncos!

Smitty needs to
put on his top hat and get some classy revenge for the ‘98 fiasco. Cutler thinks he’s better than Elway? Let’s show him he’s wrong!

Timeout?
I wish that we would have just called a 4th and 18 play without burning a timeout. The odds of converting are miniscule and then you would have 3 TO’s to use if you can stop the run. It would take a lesser miracle to come back and win with the ball and :30 seconds than to force a fumble on any of the 3 plays they had to run to make the game clinching first down.
Just my opinion, of course. You want to get a good play call, but in that situation, there’s not exactly a great option.
