Sit ’em

Tevin Coleman – The return of Devonta Freeman means this goes back to a split backfield.

Devonta Freeman – I think there will be so much passing that Freeman could have a decent game just not a great one.

Austin Hooper – Hooper’s receptions are down the last 3 weeks.

Steelers Defense – They should give up a lot of yards against this surging passing game and they have given up at least 2 scores in the last 2 weeks.

Falcons Defense  – Has gave up 13 TD’s in the last three weeks and at least 436 total yards in that span!

This game is very important for both teams as they are headed in the wrong direction. Can their deficiencies be fixed or corrected, or is this as good as it gets this season? I don’t know if we get the answer on Sunday, but I would not count either of them out this year. These teams are going to fight like hell to prove they are not as bad as their records indicate. I can’t wait to watch.
