Outrageous? ... do you take great umbrage at my remarks as well? . Multipe examples? Pull up a list of SuperBowl Champion rosters and do a comparison on their coaching staffs/rosters to Atl's and see if you can spot the leadership characteristics & traits that set those teams apart from Atl, what made them winners and Atl not. It'd be a good exercise for you. It takes more than snappy catch-phrases, smart-ass remarks & youtube videos to be a leader.

"How about Roddy White? Matt Ryan?", ... dude, you're killing me! .

You still haven't proven to me that we have no leaders. What makes our leadership so weak?

One playoff win in 5yrs for a team with so much alleged talent, what more proof do you need? When the going gets tough, the Falcons fold like chairs, what else could it be on such a 'talented' squad?

Ever hear the expression, "An army of sheep led by a lion, is far more dangerous then an army of lions led by a sheep"? Well, that's what you got going on in Atlanta, an army of alleged lions being led by sheep.

It's why you guys are 'regular season champs', .

Dumb mistakes? Like the fumble. You don't ever look at the safetys before you know the ball is in your hands. Missed responsibilities? Stephen Nicholas had to cover those tight ends that were running free. Busted coverage? Stephen Nicholas again. Terrible tackling? Lack of pass rush?

So then they're 'dumb' & not so 'talented', but good leaders? .

Please point out where I said the we were dumb, and where I said we weren't talented.

We just made mistakes you just can't make, and mistakes I usually don't see us make. They were just uncharacteristic of us to me. That's why I reffered to them as dumb.
