Falcons opening day record under Dan Quinn

[Cole World 4,178]

Under Dan Quinn we are 2 - 2 in opening games.

So far every odd year we seem to win.

2015: Won against the Eagles

2016: Loss to the Bucs 

2017: Won against the Bears

2018: Loss to the Eagles

2019: 

[Francis York Morgan 18,015]

Certainly win sometimes, but **** it looks ugly Game 1. Even in 2016. Hopefully people remember that, win or lose.

Still remember the depression on this board after that loss to the Bucs. Good times.

I was at that game. I was demoralized and had no idea the rest of the season would go the way it did. At least, this time, Quinn is calling the defense from the start of the seas.

I was at the Bears game. The last second win stopping their comeback was a relief after SB51.

Ugh I still had a bad feeling because felt that game was closer than it should have been.

That was how they played all year. I hope with the offensive minds running the show now that they can learn to break away and hold a lead.

This is a must win game as our next opponents are the eagles and the tough Texans are on our schedule too. Cant afford to dig ourselves in an early hole. Start good, start early, and dont let off the Gas until the playoffs are secure.

That's how they've played since Matt Ryan was drafted in '08.  We've won a bunch of games (barely).  I remember a few years ago while we were in our come from behind or barely hang on win stretch and a poster said that he liked the "drama"..... F that not all the **** time? Like, **** near every game?  Can we please just more than once a blue moon just dominate a team from start to finish without having me sweating bullets in the 4th qtr?  Matt Ryan has a bajillion come from behind victories for a reason.

Na, half of the league will be 0-1 after Monday.  It's how you finish a season, not how you start it(to an extent).  We need to be a cohesive unit when we run through that gauntlet of 5 straight NFC South opponents.

We are only allowed to lose 5-6 games tops, cant afford a 0-2 hole with division games still to come. 

[Jimsmusic™ 1,808]

no win this time

[rudy 301]

I might have to change the channel over to watch the Braves vs Nationals. It looks ugly right now and we're still in 1st quarter.

[southernbird 118]

2-3 now. Mediocre just like  his record against the AFC. This is who he is. He will never be anything more.

[Sun Tzu 7 11,873]

This isn't looking like it's going to go into the W column.... Hopefully they can pull off a miracle.

[jimbob06 12]

They worry about players getting hurt in preseason that nobody played so when they start the season we play like **** for 2 or threé games what happened to practicing in pads and hitting every day it built up a toughness for the players

[Falconsfan567 34,789]

Not just a Dan Quinn problem. 6-5 under Matt Ryan and quickly pushing towards 6-6.

[Beast from the middle east 62]

2-3 

Sadtlanta fowlcons need to fire quinn.

[rogueleadersf 1,321]

I'll go out on a limb here and say we Buck that trend today

I was WAY off. 

But I've seen this over and over. 

I get my hopes up, but we all know the ending....
