Adam Best – The ugliest thing in Atlanta since the John Rocker controversy. Tyler Thigpen throws two picks and gets pulled for Damon Huard. Michael “The Burner” Turner indeed burns the Chiefs, but it’s not quite Detroit revisited. Matt Ryan bounces back from a mediocre Week Two performance and plays like he did in Week One, managing the game effectively. If both our defensive ends sit, then we’re really in deep you know what. Bernard Pollard blocks a punt. Honestly, I think where the Falcons beat us is at the top. I’d trade Carl Peterson, Clark Hunt and Herm Edwards for Arthur Blank, Mike Smith and Thomas Dimitroff without hesitation, and I’d even throw in $100 gift certificate to Jack Stack. Falcons 24, Chiefs 9
Zach Best - Thiggy Smalls is not an NFL QB. Oh, and Michael Bush tore us up after McFadden scorched us. I think Michael Turner might have a big day, while Chiefs fans continue to call for Carl’s and Herm’s firing. 24-10 Falcons.
Merlin - Turner runs wild, Thiggy gets hurt and Herm goes to press box to see if Lenny can suit up. Jabba the Witless writes another Jeff George article. Matty Ice looks OK, and we have to hear about it for the next couple of days on AA. The fire CP and Herm call grows and grows. Falcons 28, Chiefs 13.
Double D - Scenario 1: The Falcons start with the pass, get 2 or 3 quick scores, pound it out the rest of the way behind Turner and Norwood. Falcons 35 Chiefs 20
Scenario 2: The Falcons start with the run, get stuffed, Pollard apologizes to Ryan, Chiefs rush for 227, pass for 206. Hali gets 3 sacks. Chiefs 34 Falcons 9
While Scenario 1 is most likely, Scenario 2 would not surprise considering the teams involved. I’ll assume the former and expect the latter.

chiefs defense will play better but it wont be enough matt ryan throws 2 touchdowns and the turner burner rushes for 110 yds and 2 touchdowns….
the offense struggles again!! pigpen thrown 155 yards 1td and 3 int….
final score 28-7…..chiefs fans are even sicker!!
There is a catch-22 in this game: The Chiefs won’t be able to run, because ATL will stack the box, so the best bet is to pass. Yet by passing, you basically unleash the arm of Pigpen and a bad o-line. Chiefs are screwed unless LJ goes scorched earth and drops a haymaker on the birds.
ATL 24 KC 9
Not enough coffe to elaborate…ATL 20 KC 6….oh here’s to hoping we don’t have to wear memorial patches on our uniforms for the rest of the season commemorating our decapitated quarterbacks
Aliens see this game and declare football the lamest sport in the universe.
24-16 Chiefs
LJ getting pissed off will have an affect on play-calling, and out of nowhere, all of a sudden, the Chiefs O can start moving the ball. It’s still a hard-fought battle, as we barely scrape out of there with a win, 21-20. Of course this is wishful thinking, as the playcalling is going to be horrid, and we’re going to lose by a score, possibly two.
Adam must have lost my reply to this…but I did predict a Chiefs loss as well. For the record.
