    Also, our Offense had a lot of near misses against the Seahawks. Some of that type of play should be successful against a slightly lesser D.

    I think we go down there and beat them.
    Atlanta had the NFL's #1 offense last year, and there's no reason to think they'll decline this year. The Packers offense, which seemed to figure some things out in the 2nd half yesterday will need to play a good 4 quarters to have a chance Sunday. I expect them to play better offensively than they did yesterday.

    Well, they lost their OC, so yeah, it's possible. At least experiencing some early season struggles, anyway.

    And Ryan played out of his mind, and IMO over his head last season. Does it continue?
