The day before the game , some clever Kentuckian decided to show the replay of the Cats win at Louisville on the two new Diamond scoreboards as Louisvile went through an hour walk through. The Cards got even on the field,where the real game is played. I have been very bored with the exhibition season. Dan Reeves is going to save a lot for the regular season, but Chandler to Calloway at the goalline made me take notice. Byron Hanspard appears to have completely returned to 97 form, and maybe the long run is back.
Falcons front seven appears strong.
There is concern for the secondary. Ronnie Bradford may be more suited for nickel than a starter, but Booker 's injury has prevented any competition. The question is who will play nickel against a Viking team that resembles the 49ers but with a better run attack and the best offensive line in football. The two good things about this game are it is at home for Atlanta and the Vikings have a poor defensive team. Coaches told me how much better the Ky. press defense would be with improved play.
