Re: HARD LOSS
I don't care for the 49'ers either but I hate them alot less that Atlanta.
49er's are one of the most physical teams I've seen all year. I hope they smash the sh*t out of that falcons teams. Then I'm for the ravens... When I look at the caliber of the playoff teams this year Atlanta has no business being in the mix. 13-3 record means nothing when you haven't played good teams all years. Other teams earned thier playoff spot... Atlanta was pretty much given thiers. |

Re: HARD LOSS
It was definitely a tease. I felt bad for Seattle fans who had to feel like we did when we lost to the niners in the playoffs. No way Atlanta beats San Fran.

Re: HARD LOSS
Saw a stat one time that kickers that are iced and miss the 1st kick that is negated by the timeout are MORE accurate (80%) on the 2nd try.
If it were me as the head coach (Pete Carroll in this case), I would have made a spectacle of myself for the opposing bench by runnning over to the ref but not calling the timeout and hope that screwed the kicker up since he was expecting the timeout to be called. Giving kickers a practice kick doesn't seem to work well to me. |

Re: HARD LOSS
It seems a lot of people are giving Atlanta a chance because they don't want to believe Seattle is anything less than a NFC powerhouse already. Idk I don't think ravens are beating pats. i could be wrong but really Baltimore played their best offense against Denver.

I think its also funny Atl is lucky enough to run into 2 teams with rookie QBs. |

Re: HARD LOSS
Yeah lucky but SF has a much better coach. And Wilson's versatility was what enabled Seattle to come back. San Fran is a better defense though. It will be interesting however as Atlanta is the emotional team. I just pray Atlanta doesnt win the sb.
If they do watch who they schedule opening night..........us. |

Re: HARD LOSS
I hear Pete Carroll just got hired at Toys-R-Us. Apparently he'll be giving games away for the post season....
