You mentioned our underrated no-name offensive line, but what about our defensive line? They will be better than most people think and if you want to pick a defensive key player, I think it will be Curtis Lofton – he is all over the field making plays and extremely physical! I think we will manage the clock with Turner, Ovie, Norwood, and Snelling….heck we could run it 2 downs and pass to Gonzalez for a 1st down every time! If we can keep our D off the field, we will win 10 games minimum.

As a Falcon Fan, I have watched all their preseason games this year. Even though I believe preseason games are not always an indicator of the season to come (e.g., Preseason wins/losses), it’s hard to ignore this team’s secondary. I know a few recent additions have been made, but it may be too little, too late. By watching the secondary’s poor play, it’s a given that they should have trouble against teams like the Saints. Maybe the Falcons accomplished more last year than they were supposed to have (Caught a few teams by surprise). I’m not looking for the playoffs again this year, but I do think they can play above .500 which would be a first for this organization (Two consecutive seasons winning seasons).
