infidel Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 All season, I've heard people complaining about lack of respect for the team. Well, here it comes. Because the Falcons have finally earned it. We had a letdown last week against a mediocre team, but stepped up big time against a divisional (and conference) powerhouse. That was the type of defeat that could crush their season, and the type of win that could catapult ours. So here it comes. And if we beat Tampa, we're all they'll be talking about.

DurtyBirds02 Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 If we beat TB, we are on of the top teams in the NFC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconFanForLife Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Yep you have to "earn" the respect. This team is well on it's way to doing just that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ki46dinah Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 We are now 2-2 in the division, which is OK....we need to at least beat Tampa at our place to garner respect, in my eyes at least. If we didn't drop a game to the very mediocre Broncos, then everyone and their momma would be singing our praises today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcons Ace Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I haven't heard a word about us on ESPN, the respect isn't there yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajdogg Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 From what I saw on Monday Quarterback, once again it was all about how Carolina lost, not how Atlanta won. I'm still kinda for us being under the radar for now. And yeah, the respect is definitely coming our way, right after we beat Tampa Bay and New Orleans.
