4th/1 at the 7.

1:01 left. Go for it to secure the win?

They kicked the FG. No surprise.

They ran the ball well all day. Think they could get the yard and polish off the game.

Kicking the FG, GBay has every chance to drive and kick the FG.

Packer kicker is a new guy. He has made a 52-yarder.

Kicking in a dome. I'm guessing his max is close to 60 yards.

Career long at AUB was 53 yards.

Falcons defense game to lose now.

GB has no timeouts. ATL playing sidelines coverage.

Gonna be tough for GB.

GB mangled the drive.

I had Packers +2.5 so everyone gets paid. Most Falcons backers got them on ML or +1 earlier this week.

Brutal loss if you GB. No way they ever, ever should have lost that game.

On the FG decision, right call all the way with a young QB on the other side. Rodgers playing? You go for sure.

Yes. Great game for line-shopping and market timing. ATS dog cashes on both sides.

Easy to say now. But ATL +1.5 was a great play in this game. I know Jones was Questionable early in the week.

Fair comment. I agree.

Just saying that Coaches almost NEVER go for it there. I saw John Harbaugh do it once on 4th/2 to ice the game w/ Lamar.

IMHO:
*Falcons would be 90% to convert the 4th/1.
*Kicking the FG there, you put it on GBay. No timeouts, and pressure on Love. So, I think you're right.

The Falcons converted a 4th and 1 on previous play. So it's hard to come up with a play for 4th and 1 on back to back plays. The defense will sniff it at least 1 out of 2 times..but maybe they should have tried to get them offside and call a TO.

Chucky I thought you were focusing on other things in life but you are still here posting about games as if you are NOT focusing on other things in life? Now, get back to Ama-ZION and get back to work.
