Yes....a rookie with more experience than Kaepernick.....and a GW FG would be much tougher than last week's win. The Falcons also had a full game practice against a similar QB

You can say that if the Falcons win it all this year. Otherwise, your depth issues will start showing up soon enough.

The Only place ATL is lacking depth is LB and Corner. Corner is due to injury however. Guess we'll see in a few years though

It's the same with the Redskins. It's a short term move meant to hit a window. If you miss the window, you've mortgaged a lot of depth and are in a tight spot. Atlanta's trade looks pretty good compared to what the Skins had to give up though.

Just think: Julio Jones could be taking out security guards in Cleveland. Thanks Heckert.

I still think San Francisco take this game. Atlanta off to a good start though.

Diff types of players though really. Jones is much much more physical of a player.

Yeah, but you find a way to get your playmakers the ball.

Atlanta is off to the start they needed.

Kaepernick solving the crowd noise is not a given.

Exactly....don't use your most gifted player as a decoy on the road in the playoffs.

Neither the Skins or the Falcons will be in a tight spot any time soon. Both will be playoff teams for many years to come.

Lol

It's like every game has some sort of "suck it Cleveland" part to it.

Vernon Davis now doing his best impression of Julio Jones. Harbaugh and the Niners have found something
