It sounds like the Falcons are preparing to play their starters in Sunday’s season finale against the Bucs. “Our preparation week is going to be no different than any other week,” Head Coach Mike Smith said.
“We know there are some things that are set in concrete. We know we’ll be playing the following week. We don’t know who or where or when and we’ve just got to go through our normal preparation and prepare to beat Tampa Bay.”
If the Lions beat the Packers at 1 pm, Atlanta’s 4 pm game will be meaningless. In that case, we could see guys like Matt Ryan, Michael Turner, Roddy White, Julio Jones, and Tony Gonzalez play limited snaps.
The Lions aren’t playing the Packers, they’re playing the Bears. The Packers are playing the Vokongs.
