How do you stop a balanced offense like the Falcons?
-
We have a physical team that will be playing a dome team outside in October. We should be favored by 3 points in this one. I have lived in Cleveland my whole life and I know what it's like to land at Hopkins under a cold grey sky. The Falcons are not going to want to play and we're gonna beat em up enough to squeak out a 6 to 10 point win this week,
Like I have always said. You cannot game plan against getting the sh*t kicked outta ya.

I disagree about your opinion about the Falcons not being physical.I would consider us one of the most physical teams in the NFC.Case in point we took the Steelers to OT on opening day in Pittsburg in what was a very physical Football game.And we beat the Jets in New York in December last year,the last game they lost until the AFCCG.Not saying the Browns aren`t a physical team,just that we are also.

On paper the Falcons seem to be the better overall team, but the Browns really are not what their record indicates. The best way to stop the Falcons offense is to not give them the ball. If our offense can slowly but steadily move the ball and keep the Falcons offense out of the field for as long as possible then we should be able to win this game. The one with the more TOP will win this game. no surprises there right ?

It's been said on numerous media outlets that the falcons are extremely physical. We have a young, fast, hard hitting defense that has the ability to create turnovers. Our OC likes to wear out O-lines by sending Turner up the middle over and over until you can prove that you can stop the run. Even if you stop the run, our OC will continue using Turner to wear out your D.

Well, you F88dup and didn't beat the Steelers when you had the chance. That right there is enough for us to despise you!!

Your fans have posted at least 3 or 4 topics on this board boasting on how we won't stop you. You seem very confident yourself.
We aren't the same old Browns guys.

When the Falcons fans first appeared on the board a few days ago they were very respectful, and then they started with telling us how we don't stand a chance against every single player on their roster. I'm sorry but what the hell do you expect, for us to agree with everything you say and have no faith in our Cleveland Browns? We gotta little word called Believeland and it aint goin no where just because of a couple of dirty birds trying to talk their team up.

You are what your record says you are.
At the end of the year when ATL is at double digit wins, nobody will go back and say "Oh, you can't give them the #2, 3, or 4 seed in the NFC. They only beat such and such by 3 pts."
They will just give us the seed we deserve.
For the same note, you can't give "moral wins" to the Browns because your losses were by 7 pts or less. We will come in to Cleveland, run the ball, defend the run and come out with a 7point victory.

Perhaps, but if you are of such fatidical fulfillment why don't you go to Vegas?

It's been 4 weeks, don't crown yourselves just yet. Your season can fall apart just as fast as we can turn ours around. That's why the games are played each week.
We aren't giving ourselves "moral wins". Every fan here knows were 1 - 3 but we could very easily be 3 - 1 or even 4 - 0 right now. It's just the same as the fact that your team could easily be 2 - 2 right now if Nate Clements could hold onto a football. Call it "moral wins", call it wishful thinking, call it whatever you want but the Browns are a lot better than what you and some of your fans are giving them credit for.
I wouldn't be so quick to trash talk either if I were you.

Believe me, many of us are still bitter about letting that one get away. Despise away.

Box up Roddy and Gonzo,
Trust in the line to keep Turner under control.
Play Harry Douglas vs. Eric wright on the other side.

Jenkins is coming back this week. Coach Smith stated he could have played last week (he was limited in practice) but was held out. Which means Douglas will go to his natural position - the slot. Jenkins is no Roddy. But he is faster than Roddy and Taller. Also Jenkins is the best blocking WR on the team.
I am looking forward to this game. Two of my favorite teams.
FALCON FANS PLEASE RESPECT THIS FORUM!

For some reason, Ryan did not check into the game until the 4th quarter. Remember, this is the Falcons who ran off a 19-play drive against the saints.
who Cares about the saints I love when people say we did this and that against a certain It doesnt matter at all thats why they Play the Games we are gonna Bring the house on those Dirty south Ratbirds and if you think Ryan got shook up last week wait till sunday Buddy

AMEN WAIT TILL THEY SEE THE ryan Blitzing defense There feathers will be coming off them at the seams LOL

The Falcons are a run-first offense that easily transitions to the passing game when opposing defenses stack the box. Look at the Falcons stats and you see they are close to 50/50 run/pass. If you commit to stopping Turner/Snelling then you suddenly have Gonzalez/White/Douglas getting loose down field. Do the Browns have what it takes to defensively shift gears and stop a potentially deadly Atlanta O?
The Falcons offense is no better truly than most of the offenses the Browns have played thus far. They have faced veteran QBs who are considered the equal or better than Matt Ryan in Cassel, Flacco and Palmer. They have faced RBs like Ray Rice and Cedric Benson who are considered the equivalent of the Falcons RBs. They have faced receivers better than any the Falcons have. The Browns defense got burned big time by Anquon Boldin, and T.O. had a big day against them. Do the Falcons have a WR the equivalent of those two? No.
Could the Falcons burn them? Sure. At some point any NFL team can burn any other NFL team. Is it likely the Falcons will totally scorch the Browns defense? No way.
This game will be like every other Browns game this year: close to the vest, low scoring, and close at the end. Which team can pull things off and win may be totally up to serendipity and who executes best. If not for a couple of pass interceptions for TD the Browns could be 3-1. But, they did make those mistakes, and in the end it will probably be the mistakes and turnovers that decide this game.

Yes Roddy is on the same level as Q. Just look at the stats.

Do we despise you? If we gave you any thought, we probably would.

Only in your dreams. Show me any resource such as a fantasy rating that puts those two on a par.
