Falcons/Packers,notes,and a commentary...

with the Packers coming off the lowest team point since the 1980's(a 40-10 non-competitive loss to the Detroit Lions),i have had a very hard time getting ready mentally for the Atlanta Falcons... the Falcons have a pitiful record in 3-9,which is good for the Packers to get well mentally,and even their also pitiful 5-6-1 team record to 6-6-1... luckily,for the Packers,the game is in Lambeau Field,not the Georgia Dome like most of the recent games between the teams... however,both teams have not played up to their potential,and have major injuries,and problems on offense to deal with... however,the Falcons' defense is their weakest part of their team;very few sacks,and their defensive backfield has been exposed as an unit that gives up gobs of yardage in the air... the Packers' defense has been pitiful through this five game non-winning streak(four losses,and a tie)... the keys to a win,for the Falcons,Roddy White,Tony Gonzalez,and quarterback Matt Ryan,and for the Packers:the entire Packers' defense... i could complain about the loss of quarterback Aaron Rodgers,and the pitiful Packers' offense(at least against the Lions),but honestly the drawback to the Packers' season so far,has been a very pitiful and embarrassed Packers' defense who given 400+ yards of opposing team offense through this long non-winning streak,and they have let down the entire team... if i had the chance to talk to head coach Mike McCarthy,and defensive coordinator Dom Capers,i would tell them:stop making excuses,and just play Packers' football,period... this season has sucked for the most part,i hate to admit,but winning games would help... stop talking about making the playoffs(the Packers are the 10th seed),and just win a game... JUST WIN A GAME,PERIOD...
