Keys Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 So the Saints are about to play the Patriots. These are arguably the two teams Falcons fans hate the most. It's a conflicting situation. So the difficult question to ask is, which team do we want to win? We can make an argument for either side: *For a Patriots loss:* Watching them collapse and rack up losses after all the praise they get would be fun to watch. They broke our hearts in the Super Bowl. We've heard enough of the Tom Brady love, it's getting old, just like him. The Saints probably don't pose a threat to winning the division, so a win for them here may not matter. *For a Saints loss:* Long time rivalry. Always good to see them lose. Plus, it's a divisional opponent, so any loss they suffer helps us. We would also never hear the end of it from their fans "hurr durr we beat the Pats and y'all couldn't, haha FailClowns!!"

ltstorm2 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 This poll doesn't deserve an answer. It should be retitled " Are you butthurt about the Superbowl or nah?". Of course we want the Saints to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caddieman Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I look at it this way. Short term satisfaction is a NE loss. NE starting 0-2 would make me lmfao. Long term gain is a Saints loss. A Saints loss is better for the Falcons. And I don't think I could stand the Saints fans if they beat NE. That said I have to vote for Saints to lose. But wouldn't a tie make you believe in Karma is a *****! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgiaBoyz Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I'm not butthurt & I don't hate the Pats. I more so hate the refs for letting them get away with 2 pick plays on the GL. Had we stopped 1 we win but enough of that. I don't hate any AFC team let alone one we let get away .. I'll always hate the Saints more than any team.

FentayeJones Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 This is silly. Why wouldn't anyone want a division rival to lose. There is no benefit to us if the Saints win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1989Fan Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 We want the saints to lose. It is the better loss for us. A conference/division loss helps us more. And any long time fan wants the saints to lose just about as bad as they want the birds to win! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb4242 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Why are the Pats a "hated" team for us? As in a rival? I understand they there is a general hate/dislike because they've built a dynasty & they beat us in the SB, but we only play them once every 4 years. Doesn't make them hated, at least not on the level of any division rival. I hope the Pats beat the **** out of the taints, panties, & sucs, and it's in our best interest that they do.

AlabamaFalconFan Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Saints, a division rival... the rival. Some of you must have jumped on the bandwagon last year if you're even considering voting Pats. The Pats are not even in the NFC . 2016 is ******** over people, only thing that matters is now.

likeriver Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Saints for sure. Luckily, no team plays more angrily after a blowout loss than the Patriots. Saints are in their crosshairs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PensacolaFalcon Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 My 2 favorite teams are the Falcons and who ever is playing the Aints. So GO PATS!!!! .... oh man I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
octoslash Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I hope they have to both forfeit due to some horrible parasitic outbreak they catch from the locker rooms before the game that leaves every player on both rosters at death's door for six months. Or, I guess the Saints, since they're in our division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlrfalcon Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Does anyone really fear the Saints anymore? If they finish 4-12 rather than 3-13 really would not matter to us and we do not face them until almost the end of the year when they will be thinking about next year more than this year. They might get a slight psychological boost from a win over the Patriots but the talent is clearly not there and they will be losing again in 1-2 weeks. On the other hand, a Patriots loss would really knock them down psychologically and start them 0-2. They have already moved to returf their stadium after the KC loss. Another loss and the calls for Brady to step aside for Garoppolo will start to pop up (not that they would do it yet). The media and Patriots would be in disarray. By week 7, they might be a basket case when we arrive. Edited September 12, 2017 by jlrfalcon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WisFalcon Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Saints - division rival. I hope both teams look like conplete garbage.

falcndave Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I am not aware of any general animosity Falcons' fans hold for the Patriots? Did I miss the memo? Not in our division. Not a traditional rival. Additionally, it is not their fault the Falcons lost the last game of last season. There might be 100 points scored in this game based on the QBs and what the "improved" defenses on both sides looked like in week 1. As long as the Patriots score at least 70 of them, I'm a happy man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no benefit to us if the Saints win. If Saints still go 7-9 while beating the Pats and them possibly losing home field adv in the AFC playoffs, I'm all for it. This is the best outcome.
