That's who the Pats are, they play for the last drive and 9/10 will get the calls. When they don't Brady goes ape@#$% crazy.

Matt Ryan should change his self-given nickname from Matty Ice to Matty Sack, that's about the only thing he does well... 9 times, seriously?!

Re: Thx Mattyt Ice

Can't help but LOL a little bit @ all you people who thought the Falcons were gonna win this. Delirious people will grasp at straws and believe anything, I guess. Where were the voices of sanity on this forum. It was like a collective delusion overtook you people, and you were CONVINCED it was gonna happen.

21-20, they had serious opportunities... Not like they laid down on purpose...

Really? I don't remember anyone that was "convinced" Atlanta would win. There were quite a few that thought they could, and with a final score of 21-20 it appears they were right.

Re: Thx Mattyt Ice

Really? Go look again at that poll and thread in the "NFL" forum.. I was one of only a FEW people in the other thread about this game, who said it was delusional to think that the Panthers would actually let this game slip. People were pumping Saints sunshine all over the place -- just read the thread. Every single reason or excuse why the Falcons could/should/would win, was trotted out, and almost no realistic discussion at all given about the matchups and the actual Panthers team was brought up. Read the thread and the poll. It was like a mass hysteria gripping people, that the Falcons were somehow very evenly matched with the Panthers and were gonna win, but that is part of fandom I suppose. I was convinced all along that Atlanta would lose, regardless of score, and they did, so I am not really too concerned with it.

You realize the score was 21-20?
Just skimmed that entire thread and no one said they would, some said they could. Didn't see anyone say they would

Re: Thx Mattyt Ice

Yes I realize that. I guess what I meant to say was, I was looking at the whole thing more from the realistic point of view of, given that they had beaten us and secured the #2 seed, I felt like there was NO way Carolina was going to let that game and the #2 seed slip away from them, instead of hanging my hopes that Atlanta "could" possibly win it. And it wasn't *really* that close. Atlanta soared on a spike of emotion early, then Carolina evened it up, took the lead at the end of the half, Atlanta tried to come back but couldn't. It wasn't a dominating performance, but Atlanta was behind on the scoreboard for more time of the game than they were ever ahead, and Carolina has a good defense.
