After last years debacle versus ATL I'm hoping we come out strong and get a W.. this would be a big, big win if we can take it in their stadium as we're the underdogs comin in

As long as they contain Roddy White, there's a decent chance of winning. I guess you can say the same about Turner, but I'd rather they try to beat the Bears with him over White.

i'll say this: i fully expect this game to be a blood-bath but IF we can win -- this would be a massive, massive victory. having said that, sadly, i predict the Falcons will edge us out by the slimmest of margins. Falcons 31, Bears 28. I think we'll get a handle on Michael Turner but I don't see us stopping Matt Ryan. Likewise, I think the Falcons will also have difficulty stopping Jay Cutler.

Ryan 27-35 for 322 yards, 2 TD's
Turner 20 carries for 79 yards
Gonzales 8 rec,105 yards, 1 TD

Cutler 30-40 for 380 yards, 4 TD's
Forte 16 carries, 45 yards, 4 rec, 58 yards
Bennet 9 rec, 71 yards
Knox 3 rec, 92 yards
Des Clark 6 rec, 92 yards
Olsen 0 rec, 0 yards

Now, if we do manage to come away with a victory, i cannot emphasis how huge of win this would be. this should be a lot of fun. Sunday night. Huge pizza delivered to my house. And Jay Cutler at the helm. What could be better?

Last time you picked against the Bears (Seahawks game) we won, so I'm happy you picked against us again

I'm not really worried about the Roddy White. The Bears contained Megatron fairly well when they pulled their heads out of their @$$ in the 2nd half of the Detroit game, and decided to treat him like he was a Top 3 WR.

Its Tony Gonzales I'm actually worried about. With the high amount that the Bears blitz, and how often our blitzes are picked up the TE is going to be open right over the middle. Pettigrew from the Lions dropped many open passes, and Stafford was throwing lasers the him everytime. Matt Ryan is going to throw a nice catchable ball, and Gonzales can actually make those catches.

We can win this game. Not afraid of their defense at all. They are like 25th in the league in sacks. Its their offensive line, Gonzales, and Turner I'm worried about. Ryan has only been sacked like twice(Albeit this should be one of the better teams at pressuring the QB he's went against so far). Can't let Gonzales be our downfall if we are going to decide to blitz Atlanta a lot.
