Could we have another Falcon ex-fan jumping on our bandwagon?! Because the Falcons sure as hell have done nothing to get pumped for this offseason...

Well, we all have our own opinions.

Welcome back to the board. You are my favorite poster that is not a Saints fan. You always speak intelligently and coherently. Kudos.

You guys had a phenomenal draft, and lets face it, you were only a couple players from being among the "elite" in this league.

There is absolutely ZERO excuse for you guys to lose your 1st game at home against us. It would be an utter embarrassment to lose to us on your home field, after you addressed every one of your weaknesses in free-agency and the draft.

That's what elite teams do, they win at home against their most bitter rival.

Then again, if you were to lose (I know, its unthinkable huh?) it may catapult your entire season into the depths of NFL failure.

No way you lose week one. Right?

I do think our offseason was good and we will be a better team because of it. On defense we finally have the personnel to run the fronts that we want to. We have more size, so we'll be able to stop the run better. On offense, we've added better better oline personnel so we'll be able to protect Matt Ryan better and run the ball with more success. I think we'll win at least 8 games.

Even if our offseason was bad, I still would be pumped for the season because I love football. If you think the Falcons will still be in the same place they were in 2013 then by all means, believe it. It doesn't bother me.

Until coaches are entered into the draft, your not going to draft your self out of your problems.

Sorry about all the hostility, but some of your fans don't have the sense god gave a jackass, and prove it by some of the stupidity they spew. However, when a fan comes here to talk football for the love of football and their team, we should show some courtesy and respect them for their love of their team and the game.

That being said, I must admit that I really didn't pay much attention to what the Falcons did in the offseason. If you care to share with us, what you believe your teams needs were, and how they were addressed, that would be a good topic for discussion and something we could kick around, much like we do with your Falcons every year...dang, sorry, couldn't help myself, but it's all in good fun anyway. So, if you like lets start with what the Falcons did in FA. What holes did you fill and why do you think the players you got are better than the ones that left.
