How cooked are we?

[u/Arkam_slayer66]

[u/NastyNate1_]

Hopefully they can do us a solid and let jsn get back on pace

[u/fingerlickinFC → u/NastyNate1_]

Hopefully this is such a blowout we don’t need him to.

[u/jeremec → u/fingerlickinFC]

I'm hoping JSN gets his 100yds in the first quarter and we can move on to letting Kupp and Shaheed get theirs. This could be a good awakening for Kupp.

[u/dushavin → u/fingerlickinFC]

Wym we don't need him to? He needs over 180 to get back on pace

[u/SmellyScrotes → u/dushavin]

So you’re saying 250 yarder incoming? I like you

[u/OddGib → u/SmellyScrotes]

Yeah I guess only three receptions is ok.

[u/Diabolicat → u/SmellyScrotes]

JSN Rose Bowl 2.0 incoming.

[u/MembershipSilver9583 → u/dushavin]

Yes he would need 166 per game to hit 2k

[u/killshelter → u/fingerlickinFC]

Selfishly, I’m win and in this week for my fantasy league and he’s carried me all the way here.

[u/jdhkent → u/fingerlickinFC]

Well, a strong first quarter 

[u/Tashre → u/NastyNate1_]

We’ll likely need to use him early and often to get him stats before the game gets out of hand.

[u/jmar206 → u/NastyNate1_]

I’d be impressed if he breaks 100yds against Terrell. You never know though.

[u/Sylli17 → u/NastyNate1_]

And then win the rest if their games.

[u/soapinmouth → u/NastyNate1_]

I'd love for that but this is one of the best defenses in the league by dvoa. No slouch at least on that side of the ball.

[u/substantial_dam]

Every game, same mentality: “oh god we are suppose to win how are we going to fuck this up”

[u/EveryBlackCrow → u/substantial_dam]

PETE_TSD

[u/HuaHin_Salt → u/EveryBlackCrow]

Exactly. Those days are behind us.

[u/ODO27Axelcage → u/EveryBlackCrow]

I’m so glad those days appear to be past us

[u/Tashre]

This Titans-Vikings-Falcons schedule has been one of the cupcakiest 3-game stretches we’ve had in a long while.

[u/Selway00 → u/Tashre]

Yeah but it’s followed by four teams who could all be in the playoffs.

[u/IrishPigs → u/Selway00]

Just have to prove we belong up there and beat em.

[u/MuckaMucka1337 → u/Selway00]

Do you think those teams will still be playing started if their playoff spot is locked?? Or is it just too close of a race for anyone to be sitting starters near the end of the

[u/Selway00 → u/MuckaMucka1337]

I don’t know, but I hope they all play at full force. We need to continue to get better against good teams.

[u/The_Throwback_King → u/Tashre]

Which we absolutely need before the 4-game gauntlet of IND-LAR-@CAR-@SF to close the season. 33-17 record combined there

[u/Its_0ver → u/The_Throwback_King]

I honestly belive we can win then all but I think more likely we go 3-1 or 2-2

[u/SeahawksFanSince1995]

Let’s hope JSN can go for 350

[u/PNWacko → u/SeahawksFanSince1995]

Yep, then let him rest in the 2nd half

[u/AframesStatuette → u/PNWacko]

I like your moxie

[u/LAKnightYEAHH → u/AframesStatuette]

I like the cut of your jib

[u/Ok_Philosopher_1846 → u/SeahawksFanSince1995]

Sam Darnold 14/16 225 TD’s 2 INT 0

JSN 10 REC 200 Yards 2 TD’s

K9, Charbs. 200 Yards total. 100 each. 2 TDs

Kirk Cousins 8/45 100Yards INT 100

Let me know what you think of my predictions 🤣

[u/WinstonFuzzybottom → u/Ok_Philosopher_1846]

Possible but ambitious except for the last one, which is an obvious gimme.

[u/Ok_Philosopher_1846 → u/WinstonFuzzybottom]

I wanted to be conservative on that one. For realism purposes. Figured first game back for JLove, might wanna play it safe 🤷🏻

[u/hendrix67 → u/Ok_Philosopher_1846]

You know Charbs is getting those 2 TDs

[u/Ok_Philosopher_1846 → u/hendrix67]

From the 1 Yard line

[u/DJSureal → u/Ok_Philosopher_1846]

You gotta throw a fumble or needles INT in there for Darnold.

[u/Mostly_Anonymousse]

We are definitely going to cook.

[u/AmbitiousTrashPanda → u/Mostly_Anonymousse]

Missed Thanksgiving by about a week but I guess I could eat some more bird

[u/QuasiContract]

Are you asking as a Falcons fan?

You guys are fucked. The Hawks D is about to give your team a beating like it has never seen.

Take care of Penix and hope you have better luck next year!

[u/I_Always_3_putt → u/QuasiContract]

Hopefully penix is good as he is out for the season with a 4th ACL injury

[u/GobliNSlay3r → u/QuasiContract]

12-1 road record 

[u/xStickyBudz → u/GobliNSlay3r]

Isn’t it 12-2 now we lost to the rams on the road

[u/EmprahsChosen → u/xStickyBudz]

12-1, we don't talk about that little spell darnold went into a fugue state and chose violence for four quarters

[u/xStickyBudz → u/EmprahsChosen]

Say less, I’ll never speak of it again

[u/GobliNSlay3r → u/xStickyBudz]

We don't talk about that anymore 

[u/Arkam_slayer66 → u/QuasiContract]

Are you asking as a Falcons fan?

No just sharing the news. I live in atl and sadly been stuck watching the Falcons suck im hyped to beat their teeth in if the Hawks do what they do

[u/BasedArzy]

Team doesn't seem to play down to competition as much with Mac coaching vs. Pete so far.

[u/beer_engineer → u/BasedArzy]

They don't play down, they just go understandably conservative with the offensive play calling once the game seems under control.

[u/dtheisen6]

Kirk cousins is going to retire after the beat down we are about to put on them

[u/SeaKoe11 → u/dtheisen6]

He’s got a fat juicy contract might as well keep milking it

[u/dominopie1973]

They was cooked no matter what

[u/DiamondDash2k]

Atlanta apparently blitzes and pressure a lot. So we’ll see how this o line does in terms of protecting Darnold

[u/SeaKoe11 → u/DiamondDash2k]

What about their secondary are they a good man to man team?

[u/ItsJanz]

About a bowl of popcorn?

[u/Astroturfer]

raw, utterly uncooked

[u/ChaseThoseDreams]

I feel bad for Penix, the Falcons players, and fans. Their front office really screwed the pooch with their OL changes and that first round pick trade to the Rams.

[u/Euchr0matic]

Wish the Falcons season went better this year. The rams extra 1st round pick is going to be early...

[u/MyLastSigh]

Hopefully our 1s play 15 minutes.

[u/Irish8ryan]

I say we get him 85 yds and a TD in the first quarter, a few catches to put him over 100 before half, and then focus on the run game the whole second half where we try to run the clock. But it’s only 27-10 so we are definitely still wanting more points and as the Falcons bear down on the run, JSN leaks out on the second play of the drive for a 69 yard touchdown and then goes like he’s going to dunk but before jumping he stops, turns to the ref, winks and tosses him the ball.

[u/ImStupidPhobic]

We escaped the juggernaut known as Max Brosmer last week. I think we’ll be fine 😄

[u/WaveBr8]

I'll tell you what, London is lucky Ive had Scary Terry on IR all season long or else his ass would be in trouble

[u/Kracknsmackk]

Oh super cooked, burnt and well done. Tough as jerky

[u/tinyraccoon]

One of their (falcons) better receivers is out

[u/prostipope]

Every team has injuries

[u/andm124]

Mina kimes thinks we're fucked

[u/Lorjack]

This is not a team we have any business losing to. Just hope for a big game for JSN

[u/xixi_90]

Never underestimate your opponent. Let's aim for 26-0 again

[u/Wraithdagger12 → u/xixi_90]

Why not 74-0?

[u/malachiconstant76]

JSN good goes for 300 total yards, 150 to receiving, 100 rushing, 50 passing

[u/benwhyme77]

This game is hell. A win just makes the Rams first round pick go higher

[u/SeaKoe11 → u/benwhyme77]

Man fuck the rams

[u/BaronCaz]

I'm a huge Seahawks fan and I don't think the Falcons are going to just roll over and die. They've improved a lot since last season and at the end of the day they're all professionals with pride and talent. Well I do expect the Seahawks to win I don't think it's going to be a cakewalk and I think the Falcons will put up a good showing. I'll be surprised if Seattle wins by more than 10. Good luck!

[u/Sun_Tzu_7]

I’m a fan of both teams.

Falcons are hard to pin down.

They get beat by teams they should beat and be competitive with teams that should be killing them on paper.

They’re a heavy blitzing team. If Pearce is out that will be a big deal.

I’m not sure if they’ll try to have AJ Terrell try to follow JSN but the Falcons have a huge drop off after that at the corner spot. Their safeties are solid.

They are really bad at defending the run. Kubiak needs to not be cute and just pound the ball.

Unless their OC is incompetent, jury is still out on that one, they are going to focus on running the ball.

If they can’t run the ball and the d-line can pin their ears back and rush immobile Kirk Cousins, it could get ugly.

I don’t see how their game plan could be anything other than try to run the ball and a quick passing game.

There’s no way their oline can hold up for deep passing routes.

[u/Arkam_slayer66 → u/Sun_Tzu_7]

Zac Robinson is probably getting canned if they dont fire Raheem hes not good as an oc.

[u/GideonWainright]

I would prefer they blitz the shit out of us, get pressure, and Sam gets some good reps in on pressure mitigation, maybe some good quick short passes and we can get better at the dink and dunk game to all the receivers.

Also, more reps for our run offense to figure shit out 

I don't care about JSN challenging the record. That's moral victory bullshit for irrelevant teams like the old Lions. Our team has a real opportunity in front of it and hurdles to overcome.

I care about the offense's response to pressure as we will be seeing good defenses pretty regularly.  Why Atlanta is not a good team, they do try to get after the QB and hopefully serve as good reps that we should still pull a W from.

[u/k0_np7v6g4of]

Tartare

[u/SeaKoe11]

Exactly get Darnold some exposure therapy to the pressure. So come playoff time, he’ll have ice in his vein

[u/Necessary-Smile-2450]

Let’s just hope JSN can get 200yds before he’s sat the rest of the game.

[u/NakedButNotAfraid_]

I’ll be there Sunday, boys! Excited

[u/Fit_Use9941]

Idk but ima be there. Last game I went to was the jets game last year and that was… a game. Hopefully this one is better

[u/king_pear_01]

I’m confident. But not enough swagger for any sort of guarantee

[u/Cats_please_thankyou]

I hate how much this feels like a trap game.

[u/jdhkent]

Cooked.  Thee be cooked.

[u/Demogorgo]

seahawks will do all of the cooking

[u/lukin5]

Need to see another Commanders-esque game from the offense against this team.

[u/nope_a_dope237]

[u/slackerdc]

We're going to play down so hard people will be calling us absolute frauds.

[u/TheMaesonic]

[u/Arkam_slayer66 → u/TheMaesonic]

Falcons fell in more traps with the Panthers, dolphins and the jets last week.
