Popular Post vel Posted September 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2019 Man... Is the season over? I didn't know football seasons were decided after one game. Yes, we just witnessed arguably the single worst regular season game in the DQ era. This team was healthy, fully loaded, and laid a massive egg. No way around it. But if you think this is going to continue for 15 more games, then don't even bother reading the rest of this. You're mind is made up after one game. Move on and accept you're going to root for a miserable team until January. As for the rest of us, let's carry on. If you've ever done anything worth doing in life, you've laid an egg doing it. Period. Public speaking. Sports. Anything with any level of effort, you've dropped the ball despite being prepared. Shlt happens. You get your a** handed to you. Either you stay down or you bounce back. You let it define you or you rewrite the script. For some, that scares the crap out of you. The unknown. You want somebody to tell you it's going to be ok. That's not this. The Falcons have to stand in their shlt right now. That's exactly what they've been doing. They've accepted just how terrible they looked. We all know that's now who they are, that's why everybody is so pissed. I mean come on: When's the last time Julio plain ole played bad? Against the Eagles, Julio averages 7 catches, 120 yards, and 1 TD. Coming off a bad game, when he's had less than 50 yards, every single time he's bounced back with a massive game since DQ has been here. He's not one man who stays on the turf. Matt Ryan: Quote “Both interceptions today were poor decisions and they cost us,” Ryan said. “They cost us points in both situations. I have to be better than that.” Ryan hasn’t thrown multiple interceptions in a game since December of 2017 when he threw three interceptions against the New Orleans Saints. I told yall on Tuesday, since DQ has been here, Matt has averaged a 113.1 passer rating with a 7:2 TD/INT ratio in week two compared to 94.1 passer rating and a 5:3 split in week one. Again, you think Matt isn't pissed? You think he's going to keep making poor decisions? Lol stupid. He hasn't done that since 2017. Matt has been mediocre in week one games for years now. He's bounced back every single time. Jake Matthews: When's the last time Jake had a game this embarrassing? Name it. Not since he was a rookie. Jake looked like Sam Baker. But is that Jake Matthews? You think he ain't bouncing back? Lol ok We all knew how much talent was on this roster going into the season. That didn't disappear after one game. This isn't Space Jam and they all lost their powers or some childish shlt. They lost. Bad. The Steelers just got held to 3 points. You think they're only going to score 48 points all year? That's stupid. The Saints let the Bucs score 48 points in the Superdump last year and only gave up over 28 points at home once more (vs LA). Week one lies. But if you want to believe it, go ahead. I bet you believe Julio is washed, Jake is trash, Matt needs to be traded, etc. Don't turn the game on. Don't post anything. Don't even speak on shlt. Just go somewhere and cry in your cheerios. This is football. You'll lose. You'll look bad. The infamous "We're on to Cincinnati" meme was after the Patriots were destroyed 41-14 on MNF. Brady was washed and the dynasty was over. Except they got the f*ck off the mat and kept destroying teams. If you don't think the Falcons can do that, I feel bad for you. It was one game. One game doesn't make a season. Never does. Especially not week one. Rise Up. Or Get Gone. Period. hotlanta, wnyfalconfan, PokerSteve and 45 others 48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun Tzu 7 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Worst game in the Dan Quinn era? Oh no. That's 28-3 Worst regular season game? So many to choose from. There's the Steelers game last season. Steelers were in shambles before that game. AB was struggling and other numerous issues that were all resolved when they played the Falcons and won 41-17. The Pats 'revenge' game in 2017. All we heard about was how they were super motivated for this game and what happened? They forgot to show up. 2015 - Losing to the Luckless Colts? Probably the 38-0 thumping from the Panthers but they got revenge later that season so we forget about it. 2016 was the aberration. In 3 out of the 4 years Quinn has been here there has been at least 1 game a season where the Falcons look completely over matched/unprepared and get blown out.

Man if this were a locker room, most of these guys would take their pads off and leave. Scared after one game. Never faced adversity. Ready to mail it in after one game. Too much talent on this team. We could have lost 50-0 and I'd still be ready to ride on Sunday. It's one game. One. Not several. Especially when you look at the steady players that put up trash games. I keep going back to that. Matt, Julio, Jake, and Freeman. Just those four guys accounted for three turnovers, several drops, and several sacks. Those guys have never had a bad game all at the same time. And not to this magnitude. But these guys want to make it out like this game is going to happen every week until January. They want drama. They are scary little boys. Thankfully they aren't the ones playing on Sunday. Nino11, Vandy, ATLskinjob and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I said. You can try and find other bad games. That's why I said arguably this was the worst one. None of those teams were as talented and healthy.

falcons007 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 They gonna come out swinging with vengeance. Any one who played competitive sports know after a humiliating loss, you take it to next level. I won’t be surprised if they come out with play off intensity. Home opener is best time to put all the chicken littles to rest. Flyin' In DC, Nino11, Drew4719 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let see how this team responds against a good Eagles team. That's all I'm saying. If they roll over again, then I'm fully on board with calling for their heads. But since DQ has been here, they've usually responded. Especially in week two. There is too much talent for them to not respond so if they don't, yes count me in the group of them being weak, soft, etc. But they have rarely shown that.

He is definitely going to bring pressure. I don’t care about the past when Ryan would bounce back after a bad game. Our lineup these next few weeks are brutal and this OL is still in its infancy stage. It makes too much sense not to blitz. Falcons don’t represent me.

FalconsIn2012 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Eagles/Vikings type teams are simply poor matchups for our offense. The silver lining is we outplayed the Eagles the last two time we played them. Should have been 2-0 vs Eagles the last two years. They whipped our butts in 2016, though 0-2 wouldn’t surprise or worry me. With that said, 0-3 would be very concerning vel, NashvilleFalcon01 and Drew4719 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconsManhood2 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I don’t have faith in this team, I’m expecting another embarrassment for the Falcons Falcons will never win when it counts, I’m willing to bet you made similar posts last year right before the Browns game when they fell apart as soon as the expectation became they could contend. Falcons are losers, but their my losers and I reserve the right to be negative because it helps me feel better. But...

He's never blitzed Ryan. You also can't say you don't care about the past but then use the past to say the blueprint is out on Matt. One game and the blueprint is out? What get pressure on the QB?
