Folks, let's be honest here.

The last time the Falcons had a legitimate shot at the SB was 2006.

I guess I am.

Bottom third? I don't think so...

He's not elite, but not as bad as you're making him out to be. He's not young anymore either.

I think we have as good a chance as anyone to bring one home.

I'm having an awfully hard time trying to remember when I said 2012 was a SB or bust year. I don't even feel like this is a SB or bust year.

Shoddy Roddy has been screaming it the past two years; that was directed more towards the team as a whole(fans included).

He must have been throwing it around without knowing what it meant because it means 'now or never' and I feel like if we don't get it done this year, we'll still be a threat to win a title the next year. That's when I think it'll be now or never for us.

For Gonzo this is his second "now or never" season.

How did Vick give us more of a chance at a SB than Ryan?

'Young' Ryan is one of those "low ceiling" guys.

How? He hasn't shown me that he'll stop getting better.

Without Matt Ryan the team would fall apart.

You saw how improved he was last year from 2012.
