I'm looking forward to seeing David Garrard in action this week, since I think he might be the 2nd most deadly QB in the NFL with his legs going up against the premier mobile QB in Michael Vick.
Of course, the Falcons will walk away from this one with the W in the end. We haven't looked to good in the past 2 rpeseason games, but I suspect a fire will be under their butts this week since I think our starters will play at least a half this week.
How are the Jags looking? And how is Matt Jones looking? I think he is going to be a bust.

Well obviously, this won't be a true test of might. But the key to stopping the Falcons is being able to get pressure on Vick up front. Maybe the Jags have that with their good DT combo, but your DEs aren't that good, and Vick does better when he's rolling out of the pocket, so you need good DEs. It'll be a test of your LBs too. Very few teams in the league have a LB or a group of LBs that can contain Vick. Basically the only guys that have accomplished over the years were all Pro Bowl guys. And even some of those guys can't match up.
If D-line can't beat our O-line then you're in for a long day chasing Vick (or for the 2-3 quarters he actually plays). And if your line can't beat our average ass line, then it says something about the quality of your DL.

I would say that Byron Leftwich has been a nice surprise for you. He's staying healthy and is much improved over last year. You definitely have a chance to be in the playoffs this year.
