I am assuming that Tampa Bay will suck, Minnesota will have QB issues, Houston will not be significantly improved, and even the magic of Vince will not be enough for Tennessee to win. Trouble is definitely ahead.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>At this point I thought ATL would be 3-2, instead we get an abysmal 1-4 record.  How do you lose when the other team has five turnovers?  These guys are pitiful.  Looking for wins down the road?  Take the two Tampa Bay games off the board.  Are we really looking at a 1-15 record?  Maybe there is hope against New Orleans (what happened to them this year), and St. Louis, but that is not really much in the way of hope.  Don\u2019t hold your breath for much improvement; it is going to be a long, long season.<\/p>\n<div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content_bottom\"><div class=\"a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_ addtoany_list a2a_target\" id=\"wpa2a_1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share\" onclick=\"__gaTracker('send', 'event', 'outbound-article', 'https:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share', '');\" class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.calvertgames.com\/cgblog\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_171_16.png\" width=\"171\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nif(wpa2a)wpa2a.script_load();\n\/\/--><\/script>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For my Falcons preview, I predicted a 5-11 season, but after today\u2019s mess at Tennessee, things look to be much worse.
