the panthers lost to the saints, and the saints lost to my g-men. according to nate jones, the giants are better than the panthers  . though i do think we could beat the panthers, but i still think they are the second best team in the NFC. the giants can stop the run on defense and run the ball on offense. i would not be surprised if the giants made the playoffs. just like i can see the panthers winning the SB, even though they don't have jenkins.

We're a lot better off with Matt Schaub than we were a couple of years ago with Doug Johnson and Kurt Kittner. But Vick will be back.

if vick is 2 tenths of a second slower, he's totally useless, seeing as how he's an awful QB. we would've beaten you guys last year if it weren't for a roughing the passer call.

Exactly. If it just comes down to pure passing ability, we're better off with Schaub.
Remind me of the situation when the penalty was called last year. I don't remember it. I just remember we won 14-10.

you guys were backed up in your own territory, when we flushed vick out of the pocket, and he ran to the left. emmons and some other guy chased him down, and drilled him way after he got rid of the ball. it was on either a 2nd or 3rd rd. play. if we would've stopped you guys deep in your territory, we might've gotten the ball back in great field position. but oh well, it's over and it was Eli's first game.
BTW, how's edgerton hartwell doing? it was the falcons who signed him right?

You still would have had to score a TD which was no sure thing, but what's done is done. It's not worth arguing about.
Hartwell's done alright. Nothing real spectacular, but it's early. He's got a nasty streak, which I love. He'll end up really making our defense great.

i honestly think there are only two really good teams in the NFC, the panthers and eagles. both are very beatable. every team in the NFC is beatable.

And we beat the Eagles, which means if we're not at their level we're close.
I agree the NFC is wide open. I like our chances, but it's a must that we get home-field advanatage. While I think we can win on the road, we're so much better in the Georgia Dome.

Or they could add 52 seconds to the clock.
PS: I'm not as mad about that as I thought I'd be. Had Randal-el not decided to Eric Crouch it to Hines Ward or had the defense actually played defense for a minute and change, things might've gone differently.
