Falconsfan567 Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 They should be when we were the only ones that did not put up a fight. It's been that way 3 times already.We could have very easily have beaten the Cardinals. We had the lead 17-14 at halftime of that game and Ryan had just taken us down the field for a touchdown to cut the game to 30-24 and then that 3rd and 16 play happened and we never got the ball back. That's not getting blownout in my opinion. I guess we have different opinions on what it means to get blownout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobi Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) Good point I dont want to take pride in losing either but Matt Ryan doesn't need to win a sb immediately for me to believe. He has done alot and the team is building. Give a few more years before we throw him under the bus. . . When he had a scare last year and got taken out of the game I was thinking the season was over. . . Until he came back in the game. Redman and Jon Parker are far from ryan. Believe. . . . . . Playoff wins are coming. Go Falcons!Too bad everyone else wants him to bring 4 Lombardis to validate him as a franchise qb Edited February 15, 2012 by jacobi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give him the benefit of the doubt for that game since it was his rookie year but he did turn the ball over 3 times and that counted for points going the other way.The other two games though the team showed the didn't belong in the playoffs. No excuse for how they played Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are you anyways?You have a rather strange method of displaying your affection and allegiance for the Falcons. IMHO. I can't say I've ever seen an actual "positive vibe" post from you. Perhaps I missed it.And there's nothing says a person must virtually always find the things that are wrong and point those out, in order to be defined as "other than part of the sheep (group)"I'm not angry, but since you bring it up... it seems to me that you're actually angry that you are a Falcons fan somehow. Perhaps you'd be happier if you found a team to support that better suits your views, opinions, personnel preferences, etc.? Have you given that some thought? You just seem so unhappy "rooting" for the Falcons... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trudweathers Posted February 15, 2012 Author Share Posted February 15, 2012 Why do some people think this thread is claiming Ryan is the next Peyton? That isn't even close to the purpose of the OP. The purpose is to point out that even one of the best QB's of all time didn't get things right, right away in the playoffs. He's saying that 1 year, 1 playoff run can change people's entire opinion about a QB. Manning was labeled as a guy who couldn't get it done in the playoffs before he won a Super Bowl. Ryan is starting to earn that same label. OP is not saying Ryan is the next Peyton!!!Some of you really need to work on your reading comprehension.This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobi Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Before this thread some were using Peyton Mannings choke artist act as an excuse for what's going on with Ryan. They are not the same player. The bolded is fixed to rightly go with what was said about Manning.Manning was labeled as one of the greatest quarterbacks that couldn't get it done in the playoffs before he won a Super Bowl.Ryan is labeled as a guy who couldn't get it done in the playoffs before he won a Super Bowl.Now I changed what you said about Manning to rightly point out what was said and then replaced his name with Ryan's because it fit's him alot more. Point being is that Ryan is not gaining the same lable as Manning unless your trying to say that Ryan's one of the greatest.FYI, Manning did not get his MVP status until his 5th, after he won his first playoff game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metatron360 Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) You guys realize alt/0 showed up right when aria7 showed up. Most likely a second profile. Aria7 praised cutler and the bears much like #1 pick. Aria7 and alt/0 are most likely the same person. #1 pick may also be the same person as them. If you notice #1 pick and alt/0 always agree with each other.Aria7 is a disgruntled bears fan or a saints fan who was very upset over the wins we had over them, where we scored the 11 second TD. But rhe way alt/0 talks he must surely be a saints fan that is upset the mv7 departure didn't lead to falcon meltdown.They are all different from swift. Swift you can tell is knows about the falcons enough to convince me he may be a fan but who knows. Could be saints fan who has been here faking for years. Either way alt/0 is NOT a falcons fan. And has limited knowledge of football in general. He has never posted one positive rung about this team since his first post I believe in 09 season. Anyone who HATES Matt Ryan is not a falcons fan period , I can see if you doubt him but you can't hate him.
