Guest Fibonacci/Mashburn Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 A lot of nfc playoff teams were watching us today. So did we act like we sucked so it would be hard to plan against us, or to plan like Tampa did and end up getting stomped?I find it hard not to believe some teams lose for a reason.Also I bet you will hear Dunta Abe, moore and others as questionable all the way until the last minutes until playoff time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fibonacci/Mashburn Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I honestly think Dunta and moore are 100% good, but Smith is just trying to fool people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fibonacci/Mashburn Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 But if they were trying to win.......then I know this is going to piss them off and make Smith and team make sure they win the playoff game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconsfan567 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 John Lynch said during the game that he talked to Smitty and Smitty said if today's game was important Willy Mo could have gone today. Moore will be fine for the playoffs.I don't know why nobody else isn't mentioning this but the Bucs were mugging our receivers all game and not getting called for anything. I don't know who the officiating crew was but they were terrible today. Teams in the playoffs won't get away with that kind of crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fibonacci/Mashburn Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Agreed on both parts. I was wondering what was up with the refs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkbigdog35 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 I think we are going to rebound in a big way to make this playoff push. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ergo Proxy Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 We had a STRETCH of incomplete passes. I think the way Tampa defended ATL is the way teams try to. Stop us from running(checked deddd..deeded already)... Force issues on defense against the pass, otherwise, before waiting for us to beat them. Like beating our OL, forcing extra contact on the receivers.A team that gets away with excess play and it becomes a 'let the players play' game, ATL can struggle on O if their team beats our OL.I agree with some of the principles in what the OP mentions. However, hard to know what was 'vanilla' vs. when trying to take certain shots/settling at other times.^Point is, other teams will wonder, too. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blkbigdog35 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Man I have been a fan since 1980 and I have never had this good of a feeling about this team not even the 98 team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconsfan567 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Man I have been a fan since 1980 and I have never had this good of a feeling about this team not even the 98 team.I agree. I remember 1998. I kept waiting for the bad things to start happening because I wasn't used to good things happening to the Falcons and them winning. Now I fully expect to win.

Ergo Proxy Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 These are some of my thoughts on the why start/why not post-game complaints. I don't quite believe many understand where I'm coming from with my points, most take it as I'm responding as either 'for' or 'against', stuck in putting it in a different context(not quite sure on objective vs. subjective lines since it moves a lot, like most threads):http://boards.atlant...20#entry7324694Thoughts?

I tend to look at the positive and negative for any situation. I can understand why coach smith may have did what he did and that's why I'm not at all concerned about the TB game as most members on TATF are. However very good post over there!

ncfalcon68 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Man I have been a fan since 1980 and I have never had this good of a feeling about this team not even the 98 team. Im with ya man. I've been a fan since 77 and there is definitely a different feel to this team. I think its gonna be extremely hard to beat us. I think our whole organization has a chip on there shoulders.

Guest Fibonacci/Mashburn Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 So more the answer should be here after the Game. Did we fool them our did we just not play out heart out and lost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ergo Proxy Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 lol, how about a bit of both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkbigdog35 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I think we started being conservative but hopefully we keep attacking this week until the fat lady sings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconsfan567 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I think we started being conservative but hopefully we keep attacking this week until the fat lady sings.Why do you think we started being conservative? Maybe on defense but not on offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkbigdog35 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Why do you think we started being conservative? Maybe on defense but not on offense.I think we settled for too much zone and we seemed play not to give up the big play however they kept taking what we were giving them and still made 7's. At some point you have to keep attacking on defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point you have to keep attacking on defense.I didn't see any difference in the defenses, although I haven't rewatched the game yet so I don't know for sure. Seems to me that the Seahawks just made plays in the 2nd half that they didn't make in the 1st half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if linebackers misjudged depth or safties didn't adjust I just hope we can clean it up a bit but I still think the defense played good ball!
