Atlanta Falcons vs. Chicago Bears Open Thread

PrintChicago Bears at Atlanta Falcons, Oct 18, 2009 8:20 PM EDT
On paper, we match up very well against these Chicago Bears, what with their average secondary, struggling ground game and so forth. Of course, on paper I can draw myself sinking a battleship with a karate chop. That doesn't mean it's going to happen.
The Falcons will have to play like they did last week, smart and aggressive and with gritted teeth, in order to beat the Bears. Jay Cutler is the single biggest threat on either side of the ball, as he'll be looking to hook up on long touchdown passes and put us on our heels. This win would catapult us to 4-1 and if the Saints oblige us by losing, we'd be tied for the divisional lead. I think it's fair to call this a critical win.
Keep it lively in the game thread, and hopefully I'll see you there. Here's to a great game!
What? Atlanta Falcons vs. Chicago Bears, 8:20 p.m. EST
Where? Georgia Dome, Atlanta, Georgia
Weather? Who cares? You have a roof over your head. Be grateful.
Fun Fact? Even though you already know this, it doesn't get much more fun than knowing the Bears were on the other end of our epic win last year in Chicago. Oh, it cheers me just to think of it.
Injuries? Jason Elam and Antoine Harris have struggled with injuries, but I expect Elam to play. Ovie Mughelli is a game-time decision (I wrote this earlier in the week, so I apologize if he's not), so there's that. The Bears could be without a few key defenders, including LB Hunter Hillenmeyer. Keep an eye on the injury report, which you can find here.
Odds? Atlanta over Chicago 3.5, O/U 45.5
Foe? Be sure to visit our friends over at Windy City Gridiron. They'll be talking Bears all day and hopefully cursing us out for beating them.
GO FALCONS! Let's maul these bears!

Predicting a hard-fought Falcons victory
After the Saints beat the tar out of NYG, this is a pretty crucial game for us to keep the conference lead within reach. The Bears can be tough but if you ask me, they’re outmatched in this game: they just don’t have the defensive resources to stop Atlanta consistently. Barring an unforeseeable meltdown in Atlanta’s offense, a Chicago victory is going to require a very successful offensive game and a coupler of forced turnovers. You can bet the Falcons are going to turn up the pass pressure against Cutler, and I ultimately just don’t see the Bears being able to get the points on the board that it’ll take to win at the Dome. Falcons by 10, despite a valiant second-half effort by the Bears.

Thoughts on the 1st quarter
NO offensive rhythm at all. I mean barely a pulse. Special teams are looking like they are hanging on by a thread. Devin Hester likes the national spotlight so we need to contain his returns.
I’ll tell you what I really liked though. Good tackling by the defense. Now let’s quit with all the friggin 3 and outs!!
In a way, each of us has an El Guapo to face.

Thoughts through the 1st half
Now that’s what I am talking about. The true MVP so far is Malarky. It’s the system that is working tonight as is evident by the fact that when Norwood was heating up and then went down, it was Turner who slipped into Norwood’s roll. I mean when is the last time that Turner had receptions on two consecutive plays? The no huddle is exactly what we needed to get that dirty bird rhythm going.
Defense is totally solid so far as well. The only worry that is lingering in my head is special teams!! That, and that Knox kid in general.
In a way, each of us has an El Guapo to face.

Thoughts through the 3rd quarter
Once again they have reverted to their 1st quarter form. No spark at all. Had it not been for that goal line stand it would have been a totally pointless quarter.
In a way, each of us has an El Guapo to face.
Snelling should've gone up the gut

Not to knock Ovie....
…but having Snelling in as FB is almost like addition by subtraction. He has redefined the position tonight into a more offensive role. More of a skill position while creatively using TE’s as lead blocker like Gonzo did earlier.

In a way, each of us has an El Guapo to face.
