Schedule is brutal. I'd like to err on the side of homerism and say we win 10 games and make the playoffs, but 8-8 is probably right.

The defense really concerns me and many of the backup positions on both sides of the ball. Considering how competitive the division is I expect 8 or 9 wins. I just hope we manage to make the playoffs and stay healthy.

10-6 is conservative, but i'll go with 14-2........ few teams are lucky enough to bar any major injuries, lets hope the Falcons this year will be that lucky ...... lets get it on!

10-6 in conservative? Man, you are optimistic, lol. 4-0 against the NFC East? No team can do that.
Conservative, realistic, etc it's 8-8 and hope for the division. That D won't win 10 games, not with that schedule.

i'm what you call a "real fan", i support the team in good times and bad times, and being in Atlanta, you learn how to be a "real fan"
WAS - new head coach and Campbell is struggling. Skins were 8-8 last year
DAL - no more TO.
NYG - no more Plex and Toomer. Giants really struggled last year without Plex. lets see what Steve Smith can do.
PHI - they will be tough, but it is a home game.

I didn't say you are not a real fan, I just said you are too optimistic.
WAS - New head coach? Zorn was HC last year also, and for Campbell is the first time in his career when he'll play in the same sistem 2 years in a row. He'll be ok. And you forgott about the 100 mil $ man.
NYG - they have the best pass rush in the game. The Wr core will be fine, you forgot Nicks, Smith will be the slot Wr.
Atlanta will win 1 game against the NFC East.

Well the 2nd string Ravens offensve manage a ~ 90 yard drive against Falcons starters (except Predator). So yeah, it's bad.
