starting C konz injured his knee and is on IR. 5 of Atlantas starting offensive lineman are now on IR. Dline better dominate these scrubs.....

is vegas taking bets on whether the made field goal hits the left post vs right post vs crossbar? kind of like roulette...will it land on black, red, or green lol
 
BTW, did the NFL or the networks install microphones on the goal posts this year or something? I've never heard the posts get hit with such a loud reverberating sound before, like someone taking a big swing at it with a large rubber mallet/sledgehammer.

That is false. Very false.
Matthews, Blalock and Asamoah are still there.

They lost Baker (Matthew slide to LT) and they lost two centers Hawley and Konz (who sucked). And they lost Lamar Holmers and one other backup RT. Now rolling with Gabe Carimi (former 1st round pick). They still have 3 starters.
 
Leaving Thursday , can't wait hope to see others in the blue and silver walking around Jolly ol england

They did not lose 5 starters dummy. They lost 2 (Hawley and Baker) and 3 backups. Matthews, Asomoah and Blalock will play and are starters from day 1. They are the three best players they have actually on the Oline.

So us losing Hilliard is a losing a starter by your dumb logic.
 
Displacing Matthews could reasonably be considered 4 starters changed. Matthews wasn't much good at LT last year or this year, so ATL still downgraded at two spots with one injury (LT with Matthews, RT with Matthews' replacement).

That would be 3. Center, LT and RT. Matthews is a first rounder

Wasn't Matthews at Texas A&M last year? Your post is invalid.
 
We should beat these guys by double digits, especially if Calvin is able to go full out. That said, if our offense plays like it has been, this is a toss up.
