gazoo Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I think some of us Falcon fans who infiltrated threads of the pundit voters on their websites after they wrote biased analysis made a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokerSteve Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 If Ice is already leading, then 3 TD's, 25 of 30, 350 yards, no INT's vs the Stains ought to wrap up the MVP with a big red bow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimifalcon Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 i think this team is motivated to end this domefield advantage with a big statement win.I have seen the freeways polluted with stain decal covered vehicles all weekend.I can't wait for Matt to send them back to the swamp dejected and hopeless.I also want the bit of fear to creep into the minds of the folks we may play onto the way to the big show.Brady and Dak beware.Matt is primed and he will be MVP before you face him.

Dude shouldn't even be in the picture IMO Has anyone ever won MVP only playing 12 games? Give me a f**king break with this biased, Homecoming King BS.

I heard Bill Simmons on his podcast mention specifically that Barnwell's article from a few days ago convinced him that Matt is the clear cut MVP and he doesn't understand why it's even a question. Sad we haven't seen our own beat writers D. Lo or McClure making the pitch. Kind of makes it understandable why he's flying under the radar so much when he doesn't even have a hometown spokesperson making what is even a very easy case to present on his behalf.

I wonder what Blanks thoughts are on the two are and if he is aware of how they treat our team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should, think that, ultimately, Brady missing 4 games will hurt him. Wouldn't mind if the packers lost too. And, if 350, why not another 37 and get to 5000?

crimsonhawk Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I'm not really into the whole stat padding thing that most athletes like to do (Looking at YOU, Mr Brees), but with that being said, it wouldn't hurt my feelings at all if they kept Matt in the game long enough to pad a little bit. AS LONG as he doesn't get hurt, that is. If he takes one big hit, take his azz out like a ninja. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea of Matt ending with an exclamation point, especially against the Saints, but my money is on Quinn yanking every starter he can as soon as the game is in hand...Stats be ****ed.

The only problem is we rarely have a 'game in hand' with the Saints. Brees can bring them back in a nano second. Starters play the whole game. If I'm not mistaken the last game with them was basically 'in hand', but the starters weren't pulled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
