Tomorrow is the SuperBowl for the Falcons. They're going to try and bring EVERYTHING they ever had this season at us tomorrow night. They may suck, but this is the NFL and the Falcons have nothing to lose which makes them dangerous.

Perfect time to catch the division leader looking past them to the next game where the Saints could play for NFC division lead.

If that happens, I want all the people who will return here to scream their brains out about the organization "in decline" along with our QB, defense, end of the world, sky falling etc. - I want them to read this thread. Because we don't hear much from you (the "moonshiners", as it was).

It is indeed a great time, we have tons to be thankful for, win or lose tomorrow night... like I said, win OR LOSE against the Falcons.
Why would this be the Falcons super bowl? Are they, the falcons, saying that?

If you're the Falcons and winning 1 (one) game this year that will give you satisfaction and some bragging rights, because they are playing for nothing, which team left on their schedule do you think they want to win?

Last year, when we started 0-4 and limped to 2-5, winning the Falcons game (the division leader) was SWEET CANDY - killed their undefeated streak and shut some mouths. It just is what it is.

Right there with you on this one Halo. I remember saying at work one day last year when it was becoming apparent how our season was going to go that if we only win two games all year I want them to be against the falcons. I'm sure they feel the same this year. .

"Yes", I actually saw a titled thread to that affect in one of the ATL forum links posted here on B&G. It's the only game left on the schedule that matters for them. .

Stop and smell the roses

When members of Falcons life get on the field then it is something to make note of.

Until then I hold that thread with the same regard as all the smack in the smack talk thread... blind wish-full thinking.


Until the players and Coach make that statement its just fans trying to find some last bastion of hope. Its the same fans saying this was the Falcons Super Bowl year, Rise up... yada yada. Did anyone buy into that?

Absolutely ... Watching NFL Network ( Geez I had DS MI Both are Idiots!!) 2 or 3 interviewed players said just that.

If they think it's a post-season game, the Saints are a lock
