dunn44 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 heartbreaking loss for sure, but it seems like nobody noticed all nfc south teams lost today... this loss doesn't set us back in the divisional race.I also think, most things, that went wrong today, can be fixed. - O-line should get better in time and with McClure back- DBs just have to be more focused and be in sync (sanders and hayden will help pretty soon, too)- Offense has to stay to their gameplan, we can't win with only 10 michael turner carrieswith that, I think we should be fine. D-line looked good and so did the run defense and with all nfc south teams losing, it's like all being 0-0 again next week.so, no worries here we'll be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4LoveoftheGame Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 It does mean something if it comes to a tiebreaker against the Bears at the end of the season. Every game matters from here on out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaudyshaudback Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 The loss wasn't close enough to be heartbreaking.What do you mean 0-1 doesn't mean anything. Just because the rest of the division lost doesn't excuse us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because the rest of the division lost doesn't excuse us.exactly. If anything the Falcons lost a golden opportunity to right out of the game get a 1 game lead on the rest of the division.

falconsd56 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Every game is important so 0-1 DOES mean something because it was to a nfc team.The good thing is like you mentioned the whole division is 0-1 and all lost to nfc opponents.Every loss sucks but one loss by 1 or by 18 does not equate to the quality of the team.

It's important for the NFC championship maybe, but when you win the division, you go to the playoffs and the regular season record doesn't count there.Many people around here are just overreacting, like last year after game one. It's still a great team and they still can win the nfc south Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to get over it and look to the next week.This is a message board what do you think this message board is here for? It's here for fans to discuss the team. Do you guys think fans won't complain after their team just got beat 30-12?Everything is all good though? Us complaining doesn't control our team. I'll look to next week when the Eagles game start. Today is still sunday and the game just ended 5 hrs ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hustle Up Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I guess if you're looking for silver linings then yeah you're right because we lost no ground in the division. Most people on here including myself are heated because of the way we lost. The sting from that GB has not lifted and then you follow that up with this performance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller2Rison Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 we were 0-1 last year and went 13-3 so dont give up hope just yet. This game was played much worse than last year but i think we were unprepared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bweb blapho Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 heartbreaking loss for sure That wasn't a heartbreaking loss. That was a slaughter. A heartbreaking loss is when your team tries to win with every effort possible and they come up just short, like last year's first game against Pittsburgh. This game was a shame! The Falcons were not competitive. And, COMPETITIVENESS is ALL I ASK FOR!It's easy to say things can be fixed when you lose a tight one. But, the Falcons lost in EVERY facet of the game. They may not have to worry about coming back against most teams. But, next week it's the Eagles in prime time. Sure, the Falcons may score more against a lesser than Chicago defense. But, if the Falcons defense don't get it together, the Eagles may score 50.I say bounce the two big liabilities on defense: DeCoud and Owens (neither are legit NFL starters and maybe dont even belong on an NFL roster) and play Sanders and Hayden.

Atlsport Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 You can bet that the Falcons themselves don't buy this 0-1 doesn't mean anything bit, and I don't buy it either. Yeah we're tied with the rest of the division, but we played horribly and that's why 0-1 matters even more. When you play horribly 0-1 can easily become 0-2, then you're hoping the other teams in our division lose. I really don't want to end up like NFC west last year.
