Ughhhh.........this one could easily go either way. Comes down to which QB makes the fewest mistakes. Vick has to control his fumblitis while Bulger needs to not throw any picks/fumble.
The 2 turn overs by the Rams in their regular season match up killed them - it was 24/17 ATL until Bulger fumbled in the endzone for a ATL TD. Then on the next series he threw an INT resulting in another ATL TD drive. I don't see them having the same problems this weekend. I'll take the points here as well. Rams +7

Seem the Rams hanging on here, prob with an outright win. Vic will be under al ot of pressure to preform in his biggest game to date and I am not sure how he will handle it. Rams offense is also starting to click and should be able to get the W.
This is my least anticipated game.

I've been reading everyone's great comments on this and the other games here at the RX.
I lean to St. Louis. Bulger in a dome. St. L stilling believing, I think, that they have something to prove given their 8-8 season. St. L being play-off experienced. Wondering if Atlanta snap back into top game form after being off for a couple of weeks (meaningless games and a bye). My gut is telling me that St. L will at least cover.

Line Tamer i think you forgot about the Wild card game in Green Bay when Falcons came into town to play the Packers. Falcons had nothing favoring them to win the game because it was below 32 degrees and Favre was undefeted in that weather at home and it was playoffs. I'll get to the point, Packers got stomped. So i don't think Vick will have a problem with todays game. Falcons do have a much improved defence and they will play thier hearts out this game.
VOLHOUND-i'd be more worried about falcons falling behind. the mismatch in the passing game favors rams about the same as the rushing mismatch advantages the dirty birds. at least the rams can cover the field quickly thru the air.
i see the falcons getting behind with their starters not playing for 4 weeks.the rams are in sync and very confident.atlanta is a joke as an 11-5 team.they almost got outscored by opponents this year 340-337..closest an 11-5 team has eveer come to that. there have been (62) 11-5 teams since the league geared up to the 16-game format.bulger stays healthy for those 3 games he missed,they might be 11-5 as well. i mention this only because all of the heat directed to the rams 8-8 record. hell, they both play in that dynamo NFC conference.
FALC 31-1 ..that is the ballsiest route i have seen anyone call on this game. guess we'll find out in about 8 hrs.

BUBBA- love the over
given the mismatches and rams turnover rate. the fact that this will turn into a track meet given the intensity of the game and i do not feel that the defences will get the upperhand today.
also, 13 of the last 15 meetings between these two has seen one of these teams score 30 + points....i love the over as this will also be a close game IMHO.:toast:
