Re: This will be Atlantas Super Bowl

They want... They want... They want...

People in hell want ice water...

Despite the ever so popular notion that if you want something bad enough, you can just go out and get it, the Falcons do not have what it takes to get what they want. Atlanta is a soup sandwich, all the ingredients are pretty good standing alone but when you put it together they are just a hot sloppy mess, and Mike Smith's Foreman grill isn't going to put out Ruth's Chris steaks.


In the last 4 weeks their offense is averaging 15.25 points per game, and their defense is allowing 33.75 points per game.

In the last 4 weeks they have allowed an AVERAGE of 182 yards rushing, and 223 yards passing (Glennon, Wilson, Newton, Palmer are NOT high yardage passers)

In the last 4 weeks they have averaged 3 turnovers a game.

You want to talk about attitude? They brought in and tried out 2 QBs this week, that is going to kick sh1tbritches confidence into a downward spiral.

I revise my previous prediction, we put up 160+ yards rushing.

Hahaha! Really! They're gonna treat this like one of last year's regular season games! We'd better bring the wood.

Very true.
They could not fire him after the Bucs loss bc of the short week, but could easily can him tomorrow morning and have the new coach in place for the 10 day break

Re: This will be Atlantas Super Bowl

This game scares me. Short week, we have 12 dinged up players and against our biggest rival. If it was on Sunday I would feel better but just don't like it on a Thursday. Wish the NFL would get rid of all Thursday games except Thanksgiving and opening night. Player safety my AZZ!

They're playing US. They're motivated. Where have you been since 1967?

whos there?
The Jets.
The Jets who?
How soon we forget.

Im not picking on you, Schmoes, and welcome to the board, btw. I am disagreeing.

Anyone over 20 (and I dont know your age) should know that records mean nothing when Saints/Falcons play. In fact the team having the bad year usually plays its best game of the year against the team having the good year.

This is an old, nasty rivalry, and nothing would make them happier than to knock us down.
Not to mention, this is the NFL.

Did you just start watching the NFL?
Do you remember who the '91 Cowboys one single win was? The Redskins.
Do you remember the '71 Cowboys big loss? The sad sack '71 Saints.
Did you watch the Jets game 3 weeks ago?
I could go on.

There are no real underdogs in the NFL.
Bring your best game to this game, or get clobbered.

Re: This will be Atlantas Super Bowl

The ONLY way we lose this game is if we flat out give it to them with boneheaded mistakes, multiple turnovers, a few bad bounces and perhaps a few bad calls sprinkled in.

If we bring our A game, or even our B-plus game, we win.

Bingo!The Jets didn't beat the same team that played Dallas or the 49ers... We beat our selves...

Everyone is ignoring that the Saints will be Up for this game too.
