The big news of the day... White not making the trip to Brazil.   Rumors that he was on the trading block.  

 

He was the big FA addition. Who was it last year at LB The Plumber? Year number two with the plan of Dean as the starter. Here we go. Hope he’s ready to go. Can just hold up is probably the big wish. Jr Ax got drafted by the right team. Late pick LBs become starters real quick under Rosie.

Then we have an early bye in week 5 man the NFL really does hate us lol.

Not sure this team will recover if we go into the bye at 1-3 or god forbid 0-4

Wow I didn’t realize how brutal the opening 4 games are for us to start the season.

Traveling to Brazil to face a good Packers team 

Returning to play a underrated Falcons team with Kirk who always plays us well 

New Orleans/TB the following two weeks and both those teams play us tough hard fought battles.

Really hoping we come out of it at least 2-2 would be huge 

Can the Falcons be the top seed in the NFC?

Hurts has the control he will make the reads and the protection calls, he has the supporting cast, he is 100% healthy. Moore going to give him plenty of opportunities to attack all over the field in the passing game.

Really no excuses for the O this season to not thrive 

Pretty much why I am expecting a great season by our offense.... should be the best passing season in team history coming up.

Be interesting I do think they have a nice young core of weapons in Drake/Pitts/Bijan no faith in Kirk to get them over the top though. 
 

But like the Cowboys could see them as great regular season squad

Their schedule sure helps

Yes their schedule is super cream puff city.

Did Kirk have like 380 yards and 4 tds against us last year on Thursday night we won but Kirk still played well against us

Steelers, Eagles and Chiefs to start the season. After that there is nobody scary. Cowboys and Commanders is about their toughest teams.

Not at all was an lol at the end of the bye week during week 5 I do understand sometimes it’s the luck of the draw we are not the only team that ever had to deal with tough schedules.

I won’t use it as an excuse for this team if we are bad just means we aren’t as good as we think we are

I love our schedule this year.  No gauntlet....no teams coming off of having 3 extra days rest...let alone it being SF and then Dallas...then having to go travel back to Seattle etc.

We play the easiest division in football NFC South.  No Detroit or SF.    Pretty good schedule in comparison to the other 32.

The scientific name for this phenominon is "Cloudahurtseagalis" Quite rare as it only hangs around for roughly 3 hours. In fact this is the first instance of it in Brazil in 400 years

Week 5 bye is usually not great...but this year might be an advantage for us with the young guys and new coordinators in making earlier adjustments.

Hopefully finally getting Sidney Brown back from the week 18 debacle

According to Albert Breer, there were rumors during final roster cuts at the end of the preseason that the Eagles were willing to trade LB Devin White.
 Whelp that was our big FA pickup

We can make the adjustments needed after playing challenging teams early. I just hope it doesn't take too long

NaKobe Dean and Zach Baun at LB for us…oh boy..hope this works out better than it looks like it would on the surface.

Dean needs to step up his game,he's been dragging
