tball channel Limited Calvin Ridley Jersey , time, announcers and more The 2018 season will kick off with a game between two of the NFL’s best rosters, which seems fitting enough. The Eagles are defending Super Bowl champions and the Falcons are the only NFC squad to make the playoffs in consecutive seasons, and even with injuries to Philadelphia, this should be one of the better tilts of the early NFL season. The biggest questions for the Falcons revolve around better luck and better performance from some of their key players Calvin Ridley Falcons Jersey , including Matt Ryan, Vic Beasley, and Desmond Trufant, and whether Steve Sarkisian is the play caller this team wants him to be or not. The biggest questions for Philadelphia almost all revolve around health, as Carson Wentz Elite Calvin Ridley Jersey , Timmy Jernigan and Alshon Jeffery will be sitting, plus the loss of Frank Reich as an offensive coordinator. Both teams should be excellent in 2018, but don’t be surprised if there’s some rust to shake off early on in this one.Here’s everything you need to know to watch the game with us tomorrow night. We can’t wait for this season to start. there’s some rustAtlanta Falcons vs. Philadelphia EaglesTime: Thursday Night Football, September 6, 8:20 p.m. EST Location: Lincoln Financial Field Game Calvin Ridley Jersey , Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaTV Channel: NBC/NFL Network Streaming: FuboTVAnnouncers: Al Michaels and Cris CollinsworthRadio: 92.9 The GameOdds: The Falcons are mild underdogs on the road against the injured Eagles, which is fair enoughPrediction: Falcons do win this one, 24-21Key Questions: Are the Falcons going to be able to put up a better fight on offense than they did in the playoffs, when they memorably were shut down by Philadelphia’s defense? Will Nick Foles turn back into a pumpkin Calvin Ridley Womens Jersey , or at least once of those fancy gourds you display on your kitchen table in autumn? Is the pass rush going to show up for the Falcons? Will star long snapper Josh Harris play? SB Nation Opposition Site: Bleeding Green NationTwitter: @TheFalcoholicNFL power rankings: national media is still confident in the Atlanta Falcons Today is a bad day to be an Atlanta Falcons fan. We now know the Falcons defense will be without Deion Jones when they take on the Carolina Panthers this weekend. And while Jones might be able to play later in the season, he will be on IR until at least week 9. Meanwhile the Falcons just promoted Brian Hill from the practice squad, which doesn’t engender positive thoughts about Devonta Freeman’s status. So given all that, power rankings are probably the last thing you’re worrying about right now. But it’s Tuesday, so let’s break ‘em down!ESPN: 10th (down one spot)USA Today: 6th (down three spots)Sports Illustrated: 8th (same) CBS Sports: 11th (down four spots) NFL.com: 7th (up one spot) There’s one key takeaway here: the national media isn’t as worried about the Falcons as their fans are. These rankings obviously precede the news about Debo’s trip to IR and Hill’s promotion. And if the Falcons can’t get their act together on Sunday Youth Calvin Ridley Jersey , I’d expect them to free fall in next week’s rankings. As always, we take these “rankings” with a grain of salt, inasmuch as this isn’t college football and they don’t actually matter. (In other words, save yourself the time and effort involved in typing out “who cares?!” or “these mean nothing!!”) Discuss!
