fansince78 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Knowing what games are ahead, how many of you expect the team to win more than 1 more game the rest of this season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macknsweetjones Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 (edited) I still think we can make the playoffs, if we lose next week I have to mail this season on tho...too **** tiring on Sunday's..but for now I'm still on board for us to make the playoffs !I think we lose 1 against Carolina and win the rest.

FalconinPA Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Not very optimistic watching the last 5 games. I think right now our only realistic chance is against the Bucs. I say we will run the tables and lose them all. Again prove me wrong Falcons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoYouSeeWhatHappensLarry Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Not optimistic at all. What once looked like a pretty easy schedule now looks a few 50/50 games and at least two ***-whippings. After we came out of the bye week looking the same, I figured we were in deep ****. For the future overall, I remain optimistic. There's no reason to think that this is more than a ****** slump for Matt Ryan. I'm seeing things I like on defense. I like what the coaching staff has done with Ricardo Allen and the OL. But absent a major improvement in play from our QB and our LBs, this year's team is going to continue to disappoint.To be honest, the worst thing that could have happened to this team and the fanbase was that 5-0 start. It took expectations to a place where they didnt belong. I was talking with "an inside source" about that this weekend. Not that I typically have "sources" or anything....I was just fortunate enough to spend a little bit of a time with someone who has some serious access. He told me that A) the Falcons love Dan Quinn and B ) that team really is a ~.500 team that outpaced expectations early. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statick Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Looking at the schedule, I'm optimistic that if these Quinn and Co. don't adjust to what our guys are doing, we're only going to win one more game this season. And even that one game isn't a given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacific_Falcon Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 The carolina games will be ugly, but the saints and bucs are VERY beatable. But then so has everone on our schedule so far.The big problem is, I dont think this team has enough time to figure themselves out. I have a feeling they'll have a couple more good games, but they squandered a good record and would need a miraculous righting of the ship to not miss the playoffs. In true Falcons fashion, these bunch of gorgons will write another chapter of in the history of football shame by being one of the few teams to start 5-0 and miss the playoffs.Same 'ol Falcons.

Lord Sarcomere Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Only winnable game I see is the Jaguars, and even still I expect it to be a close game. 7-9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isproab Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Not very optimistic. If we end up with more than 6 or 7 wins, I will be shocked. They have shown no ability to take care of their own business. Mistake after mistake after mistake. I don't see it magically getting corrected.

IronHead34 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I call 8-8. I can see us taking the Jags and the bucs (by the skin of our teeth). If not those two, then a revenge / sit the starters and whoop the Saints at the end of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nono Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 not at all, our OC has our $100 million QB doing things he is uncomfortable with (progressive reads vs. read option/audibles which is what MR has been best at). If nothing changes we lose out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falc_Fan_Since_Six Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 As optimistic as I ever was.....7-9 to 8-8. I think anyone who ever looked at the start of the season and thought they were going to get more out of this team was nuts. I will say that I thought defense would be more of a downfall so I'm surprised there but the writing has been on the wall for the offense what with Roddy slowing down and no elite TE. Shanny has just made it even worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

since68andcounting Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 At this point I'm not even optimistic we will score another touchdown. I haven't seen such an inept Falcons offense since at least 2007 and probably longer. It's sad, but once Matt threw the first pick Sunday I knew we were done.

JiveAF Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 To be honest I'm a glass half full guy. If we lose more games, we get a higher draft pick. We have no huge free agents and we actually have quite a bit of money to spend. Losing means the staff will know there's a problem and it's obviously offensive. (Meaning Shanahan could be gone) if he doesn't leave himself. We have the best wr in football, an up and coming LT and maybe RT some decent guards. An improved run D a shutdown corner etc. much room to improve and a LOSING season will make the staff know we NEED to bring in better guys. Win more games and we get a shot to upset and go for a sb. Or get embarrassed. Either way, if we make playoffs Shanahan probably doesn't leave. And we get a lower pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thanat0s Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I'm hopeful at kickoff every week. I decided to go old school watching. If I treat each week as a game in the mid to late 80s, my goals are to be competitive, not so much the final score. If I go into it thinking this train wreck organization is actually going to win, I know I'm in for a world of disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel_Bird Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Man, I was looking forward to watching a competitive Falcons team putting a beat down on the jags this year and being able to attend my first game in years (living in jacksonville). Now, I'm not sure I even want to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
