The Falcons Are A Joke
I may be highly critical of Mickey Loomis but fortunately our rival Falcons are just as stupid if not more. I wanted to take some time to enjoy that.
3 years ago they draft a tight end #4 overall. Only one tight end draft in the 1st round in NFL history has had a career worthy of being draft #4 overall. Its the most unprediactable position. 90% of sure thing TE in the 1st round are mediocre. Predictably he is ok but not worth the pick. 2 years ago they pass on Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave to draft Drake London out of USC. Fight on. Not a big error but he is mediocre and they only needed him because the #1 WR bet on apps. 1 year ago they waste the #8 overall pick on a runningback when they already have a healthy young rookie 1000 yard RB. While the rest of the NFL goes to passing, they plan to win it all with a two headed monster at RB and Desmond Ridder at QB. Predictably their running game is similar after fixing what was not broken. Now they are in search of a head coach and they go with Raheem Morris, a two proven loser, DA’s brother from another mother. Even if they hit on a QB in the draft, Raheem Morris is their head coach. To top it all off, they gave their division rival Saints two 3rd round picks to hire Terry Fontenot as their brilliant GM to help them decide all these idiotic things. And they did this even though Rich McCay is realy their GM. So they gave their rival extra nfl comp picks for an idiots apprentice / fall guy who is not even their real GM. And now they are giving another wildcard rival in the Rams picks too I believe, for a DA clone who figured out how to coach up Aaron Donald, Jalen Ramsey, and Bobby Wagner to keep being good. DeShaun Watson may not be the smartest man, but he is smarter than 3 NFL GM’s and presidents. The 3 fools who went all in to sign him. None of them should be employed. Also look out for Nathaniel Hackett or Josh McDaniels to Cleveland as HC next year. |

I don't know about anyone else, but I always thought that you cleaned the trash in your own yard before *****ing about what the neighbor is doing. But that's just me.

Re: The Falcons Are A Joke
The bible does not say love thy division rival. Neighbors are supposed to be friendly. Sporting divisions are supposed to be **** talking competitive rivalries. There is nothing wrong with taking any legitimate opportunity to talk **** on the Falcons or Bama. Its the American way to to do that with rivals. Credit where credit is due, but like in this case, 28-3 *******.

Re: The Falcons Are A Joke
Laugh at them as you may, but they have a lot of talent there on that roster. With some improved quarterback play, they can certainly win the division next season although that’s not saying much.
The Raheem Morris hiring was interesting, but the Robinson hire should help their offense. The one thing Morris has going for him is that his players will play hard for him. |

Re: The Falcons Are A Joke
I think laughing at the Falcons brings a high ratio of good juju to bad juju, a 28-3 ratio. We have been laughing at them for 7 years and their performances have only validated it since. I don’t laugh when they make good decisions but they have not made a good decision since dumping Matt Ryan. I guess they could win the division if everyone else tanks but I don’t care, as long as they keep making dumb decisions that limit their prospects to win a ring I am happy.
I will not be praying for the Atlanta Falcons. They are not neighbors or enemies they are rivals. The point of rivalry is that you dont like the other team. Even with a better QB the Falcons would still have a DA clone at coach and way too much invested in RB. Their roster only looks talented because they play in a weak division, and that talent is at all the wrong positions to succeed. I think the Panthers are closer to contending. |
