Genius Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 While at first, like many of you guys, I was extremely pissed off about our first round exit. I didn't know who to blame because this team has been one of the most winningest teams in the past 4 years. I'm also not too happy about the Dirk hire because Mularkey as OC led us to 3 playoff appearances in 4 years. I only hope Dirk can do the same.But now I feel better now because the Giants are the hot team right now. If they make it to the Superbowl, that would mean that each time we made it to the playoffs, we faced the team that made it to the Superbowl. That guys, is just called plain bad luck! But odds are in our favor. If it's any given Sunday, that means there's a 50/50 chance we win. How likely are you to get tails again if your first 3 flips are tails?The ball just bounced the wrong way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis York Morgan Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Three years in four under this regime, that would make it.Defeatist.I expect greatness.I want people to be saying, "Oh, well, we faced the Falcons and they went to the SB again so...it's not half as bad as it looks."

FalconJim Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Everyone who has beat the Falcons in the Mike Smith era has went to theSuper bowl, so i never feel to badSo, I guess next season, every team will want to draw the Falcons as their opponent in the playoffs (if we even make it there again), 'cause that means their team goes on to the Super Bowl. Kinda funny how that's worked out lately. "Always the bridesmaid, but never the bride". LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL!Well every year we keep trying to make a big change and we still end up in the same predicament, with someone beating us and they make it to the superbowl. The first year with matty ice came with a loss and we had to go and TG but it made do difference. We got julio to julio to be explosive but it made no difference. If we can perfect the same formula instead of trying to change we will be fine. Changing up every year keeps us as the bridesmaid lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power I Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Told ya, just plain bad luck this year.One time could be considered luck. Two times could be considered a coincidence. Three times? There's a trend. The fact that these teams demolish us so handily probably gives them the confidence they need the rest of the way. If we came out and destroyed a team like the Packers and Giants did to us, we'd probably make the Super Bowl on that adrenaline high too.
