FlyHighFalcons Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Forbes List.6. Atlanta FalconsWinning percentage: .415Founded: 1966The Falcons have been to the Super Bowl (they lost), but are better known 1) as the team that paid Michael Vick a lot of money before he was suspended and 2) a team that loses a lot, which frustrates the football-mad denizens of the state of Georgia.

Falcon Freddie Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 The past is past. Tell my why the 2010's can't be the Falcons' decade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Blah Blah Blah.That's all old news. Yes we used to suck and Mike Vick played here. Before the 2000 season the Pats were pretty lousy for awhile. The Colts were terrible before Manning. And the Saints? Come on they sucked for just as long.Our time is now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peyton Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 And the Thrashers are number 9 on the list, so Atlanta is well represented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulitik Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 By the end of this decade that winning percentage will be up. We may be at .500 by 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkdude41 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 UMMMMMMM..... how come the Saints arent on here? Their winning percentage, according to wikipedia (yes i know wikipedia has a history of inaccuracy, but i would believe it in this case) is .425, which would fit in nicely among the ranks of inadequacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkdude41 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 because they can pay off Forbes just like they did the refs all year; with bottles of vicodenright right of course, how could i forget. How could anyone possibly fathom that the Saints, the current darlings of the NFL, could ever possibly be complete Sh it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their winning percentage, according to wikipedia (yes i know wikipedia has a history of inaccuracy, but i would believe it in this case) is .425, which would fit in nicely among the ranks of inadequacyI would assume it's because they didn't make the top 10, but I could be wrong. Let me look again.edit - Nope, I was wrong and you guys were right. I thought it was a statistical list but I was wrong.

Peyton Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 By the end of this decade that winning percentage will be up. We may be at .500 by 2020.All the Falcons need is 11 consecutive years of 13-3, and the Falcons will be.......just a game under .500 at the end of 2020.I don't think the Falcons will ever see a .500 winning percentage, but nobody will care about that if they just win a Super Bowl or two. See the Saints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tandy Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I have to look at it as "Under New Management"Falcons Record BB (Before Blank) 212-327-5 (.6 to 1 win/loss ratio) .411 win pctgFalcons Record AB (After Blank) 64-63-1 (1.01 to 1 win/loss ratio) .5 win pctgEven more importantly - Falcons Record ATD (After TD) 20-12-0 (1.67 to 1 win/loss ratio) .625 win pctgIt's a new regime - new owner, new management.I think these Falcons are for real.
