Shredman Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I Kinda doubt they will if J Abraham is out......he was our entire pass rushW Moore and D Rob back will help tho, but yea man, I dont know, they better find another gear fast....

falconsd56 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Just because we lost today it does not mean we "backed into" the playoffsWe were 4-2 over the last 6 games of the year. that is not backing in.But before you even breath the words playoffs you better make sure Romo does not choke again vs the skins.

Falc_Fan_Since_Six Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I hate that we lost Abe but we didn't back into the playoffs. That's a moronic statement. The game meant nothing and I'm not sure I agree with Smitty on playing his starters but he was danged if he did and danged if he didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punisher 99 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 You back into the Playoffs when you lose a must win game and then someone else does the dirty work for you. That's not what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serge Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 The falcons didn't care about two of their last three games. Could be worse they could've mailed it in like Houston has. They have the opportunity to go from hfa to hosting a wild card team. I watched none of the game thought scrubs would've been playing. Tough break losing Abe. How'd he get hurt?Ankle rolled up, tatf would have you think bone was visible. As far as the game goes we ran more screens in the first half than we have the last half of the season. We didn't have backups in but it looked like a preseason game throughout. They were done with the regular season with a minute to go in Detroit. For better or worse is anyone's guess.

The playoffs are a single eliminator tournament and how you got there means little at this point.The Saints dropped their final 3 games, then won the Super Bowl.

Big Bubba Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 If Abe can't make it, the Falcons may find fortune in a back-up coming in and playing his arse up to help elevate their Dline. Not saying it will happen, since Abe is a leader of their defense, and that kind of person is hard to replace, but you never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( as of now atleast)And we should be back to full strength come 2 weeks from now.I just hope Nolan and DK have some things up their sleeves.

Des-pool Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Thank all the football gods....seems he is ok, Smith called it minor.I have a feeling the vets didn't want to play this game, and want to be healthy for the playoffs. I wouldn't be surprised if Dunta and Abe mailed it in on their injuries... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
