State of Franchise: Don't be surprised if Falcons win NFC South | Pro Football Talk | NBC Sports


Recommended Posts

Talent is there. Coaching isn't. DQ is far more concerned about being buddies with these guys.

DQ is a great talent evaluator and is much more suited in a front office. Just isn't a disciplinarian and allows his players to do whatever whenever.

Two of the best championships were played during pandemics and no asteriks beside them

I think people are missing my point. If COVID makes a bunch of key players miss long stretches of the season in our division especially, cuts our number of regular season  games down and if we win a Super Bowl this year, sure, all of us Falcons fans will take the trophy. Of course. 

A Super Bowl gives your team ultimate respect. Even the haters of Falcons would have to finally give us a fair shake.

But if the season is abbreviated, or if several major players miss several games, the media mouthpiece haters who have always dogged the Falcons will use the asterisk to delegitimize the Lombardi and continue to hate on us, continue to dog us, it just won’t stop. That’s my point.  

If the NFL plays a regular season schedule without too many key players missing too many stretches of games due to COVID, the delegitimization attempts won’t work.  If you’ve been a fan as long as I have, you know the haters have always been there and I’d like, just for once, for them to have to eat some crow or just Shut up for once.

Sounds like you used to spend a lot of time in front of the mirror before school trying to make sure your outfit was hip enough for the cool kids to not laugh at you.

You know, I do my best to keep this message board clean and a place where we can all enjoy discussing Falcons football. When I read completely unwarranted, unprovoked childish insults like this when I am simply engaging in friendly discussion I know it is far more a reflection of you than it is anything else.  If a poster shows a pattern of this kind of childish behavior a just permanently ignore them after while.

I'm sorry. I will remember your name and never kid around with you again. I promise.
