Hadn't really thought about it, but it makes a great deal of sense. The ground-based Falcons are rarely going to win games on their passing "attack." OTOH, the Cardinals, excepting the Niner game, have shown little ability to jump on top.

GET A LEAD
The Falcons have shown, with more frequency, that they are front-runners. Going back to last season, they can play with any team in the league if they take an early lead. However, if they are in a position where they have to come back, especially in a two-possession situation, they are in trouble.

The Falcons must get off to a quick start today so they can establish their running game and not have to throw the ball much. If the Falcons can control the tempo, things play into their favor. If the Cardinals dictate the flow early, things could get sticky.

New Orleans certainly showed that if you can stop the run you can beat Atlanta. I expect a big game from Dansby to stop Vick. For my 100th straight game I expect a Cardinal win.
