you're wrong.. The Falcons will win at least 11 games next year.

We talkin bout the rookie Julio Jones? The one who has yet to play a down in the NFL Julio Jones? The Julio Jones who plays the WR position that usually takes about 3yrs to finally breakout? That Julio Jones???

Let's hope it's Cullen Jenkins. Right now we're looking at Haynesworth (  ) at one DE and . . . um . . . er . . . who else at DE?

The Patriots didn't really save very much money by cutting Ty Warren, aside from being able to move some dead money from 2011 into 2012. I would speculate that he's either healthy and will soon be re-signing with New England on a cheaper contract, or that he was released because his hip didn't check out.

The longer Nnamdi is making up his mind, the better chance I think we could remain in Oakland. He has said he wants to stay a Raider but it's in Al Davis' court now

Austin Collie as a rookie with Manning? 60 catches, 600+ yards, 7 TDs.
Santonio Holmes as a rookie? Over 800 receving yards.
What about Dwayne Bowe as a rookie? Oh just 70 catches for 995 yards.
Even Jeremy Maclin as a rookie did work. 56 catches, 773 yards.
You're wrong, being a rookie doesn't matter at all.
Julio Jones is just as good of a prospect as all the guys I listed AND he's blessed with a fantastic passing offense led by an elite QB.

Matt Ryan isn't elite, unless you are really stretching the meaning of the word.

The Falcons should be fine as long as Ryan stays healthy. At least hover around 10-6. If Turner gets hurt or their run game really falters then I could see them falling apart, but as of now I'd have them billed at least as a wildcard. Wouldn't be surprised if they won the division again though.

1. No, it's not the most dangerous combo in the NFL. And no, he's not the best young qb in the NFL. Matt Ryan is a good qb, but he's overrated. Wake me up when he plays well in the playoffs. I expect him to 1 day, but so far, it hasn't happened yet. He's hailed as the next Peyton Manning when he's not anywhere close to that. He's a good qb. But he's not a great one. Not yet.
2. You mean the rookie who hasn't proven anything yet? That Julio Jones? The one who is already behind the ball bc of no OTAs and mini camps? Temper expectations. Julio isn't going to walk into the NFL and get 1000 yards and 8 TDs.
3. And the pass rush is still going to suck. Abraham isn't getting any younger and Edwards is an average pass rusher. Korey doesn't have crazy potential.
The Falcons in my opinion were one of the most overrated 1 seeds we've seen in many years. They were not that great of a team last year. I said it throughout the season and I stand by it. They are poised to lose 2 starting olinemen this year, they still lack pass rushers, they still lack a great secondary, and they have never made the playoffs 2 years in a row.
They caught a lot of lucky breaks last year and stayed relatively healthy. Some times teams overachieve, and the 2010 Falcons are the blueprint of that.
Both the Bucs and Saints have significantly improved their rosters in comparison to the Falcons this year. And I highly doubt all those lucky bounces happen two years in a row.
The Falcons are going 7-9. You can take that to the bank. And if I'm wrong, feel free to quote me on this post, and mock me for it later. I will gladly eat crow, but I'm not changing my opinion on this one.
I got the Falcons at 7-9 and I'm sticking to it.

Jaguars have an agreement in place with S Dawan Landry.
Interested to see if they sign a FS like Goldson or Pool.

Lombardi just said that the Jets have redone the contracts of Brandon Moore, Bart Scott, Tomlinson, and Calvin Pace.
