I really don't think that the Eagles D will match the running game of the Falcons. I also don't think that they have the type of containment ability to hold Michael Vick - on the other hand I'm not sure if the Atlanta secondary will be able to shut down the Eagles passing game - but I think they can hold down McNabb.
Nex Prediction - Falcons in a close game
While I'm predicting lemme predict the other game shall we?
The Patriots are a good teams, possibly one of the best, but they were beat before, and have shown that they don't nessesarrily need Ben to play well to win. Their Defense and running game makes up for it, and with two power backs (Betis and Staley), the Pats defense is going to get rushed on.
Look for the Steelers Defense to SHUT DOWN the Patriots offense with the blitz packages that they run, stopping their running game and forcing Brady to throw.
Also the Stellers WHUPPED their ass before - Steelers over Pats.
