Popular Post FalconFanSince1970 Posted December 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2019 From the owner to the HC to the water boy. Thank you for not tanking! I won't forget. Yes I know many TATFers would've rather tanked for draft position, but they still don't realize no NFL team ever tanks. Never. Not the Suck For Luck Colts or even the 2019 Miami Dolphins. Tanking is for draft geeks, mocker fockers and losers. This team is playing like the 1997 Falcon team that parlayed momentum to a Super Bowl berth the following year. And whoopin as on the road which is hard to do. There are so many reasons you never tank.

Popular Post JD dirtybird21 Posted December 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2019 I’ll eat crow. I admittedly wanted to tank for a moment at the 1-7 start. I’ve enjoyed the 6-2 finish though Vandy, Monolith2001, Stevo and 27 others 30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitz28179 Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 I would say we have a better record than anybody in the last 8 weeks of a nfl season the last 2 years. We should get a trophy for that lol Drunken Minotaur Zebra, trudweathers and 408Falcon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
octoslash Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 The fact that the Falcons sealed Jameis Winston's infamous, possibly eternal entry into the embarrassing quarterback record books today and won the game on the same play, made this win completely enjoyable. Even the tankers have to admit that. But of course they won't LOL. The Daywalker, VTCrunkler, Tim Mazetti and 15 others 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pearljamnash13 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Never endorsed tanking. This is football. You play to win the game. If your players aren't playing to win the game they shouldn't be playing. You get 16 chances to show your worth in the NFL regular season. Missing out on Chase Young doesn't bother me. While I am a little upset we will probably keep Koetter I do like the idea of continuity. AB referenced the Steelers and Ravens for keeping their core together for so long. The continuity could flesh out returns we haven't had with all of our shuffling and turnover. I just couldn't be happier to see the Falcons walk off in the fashion they did to put a stamp on what was a roller coaster of a season with some lowly lows.

If the Falcons winning is screwing you, then why are you a fan? By your logic, you should be draped in Cincinnati Bengal gear right now. So why aren't you?

dawgsjw Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Great season eh fellas? We completely miss the playoffs and then win enough games to save DQ and TD's job for another season while screwing ourselves out of a better draft picks.

Ergo Proxy Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Imagine hoping just 1 draft pick will make or break your season or franchise when you have a core already in place. I mean...maybe Lindstrom? Ya know what...nevermind. Does he count since he wasn't a top 10 pick? Tankers would argue he couldn't have made a difference this year when the FA OGs were playing like trash. Just tank...get a high draft pick and overpay in FA right? WINS WILL COME!
