As I was saying, been a Falcons fan since the days of Atlanta Fulton County Stadium. Decided not to invest too much of my sanity in the team this year once it was clear this wasn't our year. Spent too much of my sanity on the team last year, and I've benefited from the break. While feeling increasingly conflicted about supporting a sport that too often leaves its players in terrible mental and physical condition after the game is done with them, this year also brought much more important lessons with a good friend dying of brain cancer. He's 42, played LB for CU back in the day. He'll be lucky

Well I guess we all whiffed on this one.

Is Mike Smith This Era's Marty Schottenheimer?
Firstiary replied to autigerfan's topic in Talk About the Falcons
We were pretty **** great last year and really **** close to making the SB. Maybe we were outcoached vs. SF (on the critical play, we were), but if we make a play at the end of that game or if we had a little more to work with on the defensive side, maybe we win the SB last year and no one says anything like this about Mike Smith. -

I thought the 4th down calls were dumb, but if we make those plays we're not having this conversation. Granted, those were dumb calls and he's made them in the past too. -
I Like Matt Ryan But His Play Was A Problem Last Night.
Firstiary replied to jidady's topic in Talk About the Falcons
Maybe it's just bad luck, but it seems our story in the red zone is that Matt either makes bad passes (which he shouldn't be doing--the guy is crazy accurate when he wants to be) or our receivers drop the ball. I don't know if our offense just craps its pants in those situations or if we're just running into a patch of bad luck. -
I have hated him as a player almost since day 1. The guy cannot take a good angle to tackle anyone. He's the biggest reason our defense gives up so many big plays. Almost every time we give up a big play, it's because he missed a tackle.

Is Thomas Dimitroff's Ego Getting In The Way?
Firstiary replied to kennycaine's topic in Talk About the Falcons
On a previous goal-to-go situation we tried running with SJax and Quizz and got nothing. Yeah, I know you said SJax. But surprisingly it doesn't seem to be as easy as saying "give SJax the ball, score TD." Of course if SJax or TG had caught the ball, no one would question it and say we should've been rushing. -
Wait, they asked for your feedback on the cheerleaders? Were you allowed to touch the merchandise too?

So It Isn't Just Me Then...

The article is correct, but **** we have too many fans who think anything less than 19-0 means it's time to start firing and trading every franchise employee. -
