Exactly...4-0 is 4-0 regardless of the opponents. Puts us on track for the playoffs. Of course the Falcons are also 4-0, so that puts a damper on my excitedness.

I think its great they are 4-0. When the season started I thought they'd be 2-2, 3-1 at best. Lets be honest, there was not much hope in the queen city when KB went down.

The next question begs to be asked:

Are you satisfied with a team that is a 4/5 seed and might have a shot to win a game in the playoffs, or do you think this is a better team than that?

I love the fact that in 2 weeks, we will get to see what exactly this team is made of.

This is going to be a huge game for Cam. He's getting paid now and needs to step it up and play error free.

I think the NFC South is definitely a two horse race at this time. I think you can also question the strength of the Falcons wins. But think our schedule makes getting at least a wild card very favorable.

I think the Falcons wins looks a little better since at least 2 of the teams they beat are at least .500, and all of the teams the Panthers have wins over only have one win at .250 in the standings. The Panthers and Falcons don't play each other until December when they play each other twice that month. It's funny how it turned out like that after both teams have a 4-0 start.

The game against the Seahawks in a few weeks will be a good one. I watched the MNF game last night against the Lions and I wasn't too terribly impressed with Seattle. Yeah their D is still pretty good and yeah Russel Wilson can make some great plays but their O line is not very good and their run game without Lynch isn't that great. They certainly are not the same team that played in the Super Bowl last year. I'm pretty sure we're a better team then the Lions and they almost beat them last night. I think if our D shows up (which I'm sure it will especially if Luke is back) and the offense can limit turnovers and we chip our way down the field I like our chances. I know it's tough winning in Seattle but like I said the Lions were a Calvin Johnson fumble away from walking out of there last night with a W.

I agree.

Eh, a win is a win is a win. We're both 4-0 and will both more than likely make the playoffs. The division will come down to those week 14 and 16 matchups, and hopefully the Falcons have to deal with some injuries by that time.

Matt Ryan and Julio Jones are carrying the Falcons. If either player goes down with an injury, the Falcons could struggle.

I'd actually say that Freeman is carrying them more than anyone. That kid is a beast.

I hope both teams stay healthy and be at full strength for the season, that will make for a good game. The better team will prevail, and leave no question marks or ifs ands or buts. If you capitalize off another teams injury to key players then so be it, but I love when both teams are fully healthy. I looking for them to split the 2 games though, and I'm thinking they will be road wins for each.
