stizz Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 What is going on with this board? Are we really happy with 7-9 and "continuity" with our fingers crossed that we come out through this all rosy like the Saints did? The fact is the Falcons under-performed and got off VERY light in terms of injuries with the only one of significance being a rookie guard. (Team did decent at safety with Kazee/Rico without Neal). So the staff is basically hoping for a different outcome going up against a similar schedule. I just don understand why we're settling. Losers mentality. Hawks are in shambles and the Braves seem excited just to get to the postseason and not do anything when they get there. Every player in Atlanta should have been on notice after Josef Martinez's comments, but they knew he was right. The soccer team is the only one in the city that has accomplished anything. FFS1970 always rambles about taking things in his own hands and we even had that poster from years ago contemplate jumping on the practice field to challenge olineman. When are we ever going to do anything about being losers. Tennessee fans reversed the Schiano hiring because of a revolt. Wished our fans were just as passionate.

ya_boi_j Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Not really. Never really believed in getting that bent out of shape about things I don’t control. It’s only sports.

EJmusic Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Not at all. It was a crap start and a good finish. Overall disappointing, but I definitely understand why everyone is retained. Do I agree with it? Not necessarily. Am I disgusted by it? No. jordan, Atl Falcon, JD dirtybird21 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mentally and financially. This team chose us. Or else we'd be able to switch over to a more successful franchise. Same reason the draft is the most exciting day for many football fans. Because every team starts at zero and has a chance.

Diggable Birds Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 This season was an absolute failure in my eyes 1-7 to start the season is who this team is. 7-9 = losing season and no Playoffs, not sure where all the Happy and good vibes are coming from. This team is undisciplined, Defense looked like **** most of the season,no pass rush,and our O Line is garbage. Not sure how bringing Quinn and Dimitroff back helps that. Fast and Physical...Continuity Eunff with the catch words/ phrases just win dam it. D.B.N., DriveHomeSafelyAtlantaWins and MAD597 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posting doesn’t mean you’re heavily invested and the team certainly didn’t choose us. Posting for the most part is to kill time for most of us. Some of you treat sports like it’s all you have in life. That’s not the case for a of us. You can’t get upset because everyone doesn’t approach it like you.

When you go into businesses, and you see an incompetent worker, do you ever say to yourself "I wonder if I could be as inefficient at my job as this person is and keep it." That's what's going on with Quinn. Dude put his job on the line taking over the defense, failed, then delegated to others who were successful. It is incomprehensible that he won't be held accountable for a 1-7 start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Falcons. If you want to kill time, read a book, workout or pick up a shift at UPS. Instead, you chose to post thousands of times about the Falcons.

Like I said worrying about me isn’t going to resolve your issue with the team. Back to the topic, it’s sports. It’s not worth getting that upset over. Hopefully no one loses sleep at night because they’re upset.

I'm just saying I find things odd when people say we weren't chosen to follow the team when we have the freedom to easily become a fan of a more successful franchise.

emc008 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 How someone spends their time is their decision. Telling someone to workout or read a book instead of being active on a message board to prove they aren’t invested is just ridiculous lol. We can enjoy doing something without allowing it to guide our every thought and desire. And we can also enjoy doing something that does overcome us. ya boy j isn’t forcing you to have his viewpoint yet stizz is trying to cram his viewpoints down others throats which just doesn’t go over well ya_boi_j 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again I’ll restate, just because we do things a lot or 60,000 posts over a long period of time still does not demand that it has to impact our every facet of living. it might impact you one way and me another way. Forcing your way upon others and judging them on that false narrative is simply wrong. ya_boi_j and JD dirtybird21 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
