I know alot of people like Atlanta. I really think that the perception is Johnson can throw the ball as well ,or better than Vick thus, the Atlanta offense will not be that bad with Johnson. I agree Johnson can throw the ball very well, and in the passing department, Atlanta , will not suffer from Vick's absence. The thing that will hurt them in my opinion, is the running game. Vick had almost 1000 yard's rushing last year.
. I think the Dallas defense has a much easier time defending Atlanta without the scrambling threat of Vick. Last year, Vick won game's almost by himself, when team's could shut him down, Atlanta's offense struggled big time. I think they will today. The reason I like my play alot is I feel the Atlanta defense is poor. Last year they allowed almost 5 yard's per carry
. I really think that is the biggest difference in these 2 team's. I think Dallas will be able to control the ground game and add in the home field,the fact tha it's the first game,and the fact that Parcell's has these guy's in a better mindset than they have been in the last couple of year's I think Dallas can handle Atlanta. Do I believe Dallas is a play-off team? NO. I just think all the intangible's favor them greatly today and I believe they get the W.:shrug:
