    Week 2 SNF: Green Bay Packers (1-0) @ Atlanta Falcons (1-0)

    First regular season game at the new Mercedez Benz Stadium.

    We all know what happened the last time these two met so hopefully we can avoid a repeat of that night.

    IF a repeat of last meeting does happen, I'd rather it in regular season. First 2 games of year are potential playoff matchups, time to make early statement.

    Sidenote, the new NFL on nbc intro isn't good. I liked the last one they got.

      at least literally all the DB's aren't hurt for this one so they can put up a fight but Julio still going for 200 in this one. Should be fun though.

        Looks like we're rolling with backups at both Tackle spots as Bulaga and Bakhtiari are out.

        Guessing we'll see a lot of 2 TE sets tonight. Didn't really see much last week against Seattle.

        No Ahmad Brooks as well but his presence wouldn't really tilt the game in one direction or the other so I'm not losing sleep from him being out.

          Affordable concession prices?

          That is unheard of.

            Well if Atlanta gets a Td here you may as well put the kids to bed.

            And maybe start trolling GB fans on FB because this game is over. Falcons won't let a team make that kind of comeback against them.

            Edit: eh, I think McCarthy has a point, not simply because of the flag on GB, but because ATL also used a pick play to score their TD.

              I'm not loving the penalties that are having a huge impact on this game. That said I'm liking what I'm seeing from Sarkisian a lot more this week as oiur offebse seems to be firing on all cylinders. Our defense is looking some good and some bad, without that pick penalty we give up at least a FG in that drive to end the game with a 7 point swing instead of a 17 point swing. Also nice to see Tru getting capatalizing on that uncharacteristic floater it's nice to have him back.

                Lol, you could probably buy a whole pizza for price of a slice at other places.

                  Offense is looking like trash.

                  Week 2 though so I'm not going to panic or get alarmed. Rather get it out the way now than later in the year.

                  Hopefully Daniels' injury isn't significant or long term.

                    Off coverage in the beginning of the 3rd....we apparently haven't learned yet...

                      Could just be my TV and Speakers or maybe the crowd is chillin but it doesn't sound as loud as the Georgia Dome.

                        Yup. Paid like $11 for what seemed like a 6 inch round brick with pepperoni on it at Levis last week. $9 for a soda in a plastic cup advertising $0.49 refills on the side... at AM/PM, not the stadium (and explicitly stated as much, lol).

                        Would be nice if the Vegas stadium followed the same route as the Falcons, but not getting my hopes up as Davis and the Raiders finalize about $1b in financing for the construction.

                          Not a Falcons fan but Arthur Blank seems like one of the genuinely good owners in all of sports.

                          There have been a few stories over the years where I am sure fans of division rivals had wished the Falcons had not done something. Didn't they sign a paralyzed player to a contract or something?

                            Good game Falcons fans, we kind of woke up in the second half after the game was out of reach.

                            When the schedule came out, I didn't have this game as us winning.

                            Hope we get the Falcons at Lambeau in January.
