WampaLord posted:u seem...mad You guys keep projecting feelings on me lol. Not mad at all. Honestly curious about this phenomenon. Seems even on twitter other fanbases are like ok guys this is getting weird so I’m curious if it’s always been like this or not? Not mad at all, it’s kind of funny. Like did any other city bring back Philly winning to Atlanta in today’s headlines? And really I’m more curious because if I understand correctly a bunch of New Orleans folks moved to Atlanta during Katrina and am curious if that has anything to do with it? I’m an out of towner so I’m honestly curious. weird Asian candy fucked around with this message at 15:28 on Feb 5, 2018 |

It was always like this to some extent. It was a little less when we were all in a division with the 49ers and they were trashing us both each year but otherwise I always remember a fair bit of poo poo talking to ATL since the mid-80s at least.

Sounded entertaining at least so thats cool for those that watched, and Im glad the Pats lost, but Im pretty whatever about Philly winning. LOL, what in loving christ is this? The demon Brady has been slain, he was slain with the ball in his hands. I watched it loving happen and it was glorious.

I wasn't paying enough attention to know. It just makes it that much better for me if the Eagles see the Pats run it and gently caress it up and Pederson is like lol watch this. It's close enough that it doesn't really matter I guess because in the end it was a pass to the QB.

I didn't think they'd only get 5 wins but I wouldn't have been surprised or argued if you'd told me thats what would happen at the beginning of the season. Jameis was hurt for a lot of it and played like poo poo as a result, then there was the few games with Fitz but yeah still.

You also got screwed before the season even began with the "lol wut bye week?" act the league pulled on you and Miami so it felt like the season was going to be one of those years before a snap was even taken. I also thought Desean was going to go nuts, Howard too. That was surprising to me to see them really do next to nothing.

I totally forgot about the bye week thing but I don't know how much of that can be blamed on the bye. They were 3-4 going into what would have been the bye week, beat the Dolphins to be 4-4 but then lost every game after except for the final game to the Saints. I think the DeSean/OJ thing can be attributed to Jameis being hurt and DeSean getting older. Evans production dropped too but that's in comparison to the year before, which was stellar. Looking at the two previous years to that they were more in line with this year. He did progress each year, however, so this year could be looked at as regression.

Yeah, not saying that the season can be blamed on the bye week fiasco, more like the wind being let out of your sails before the season even began but I don't know how you all felt other than annoyed and irritated that you had to play 16 straight games. It'll be curious to see how that offense does with Koetter on the hot seat. Evans is still a stud, and I think Howard will be too, so they are still concerning.

^ Saw that, that is very cool and very good.Sent from my iPad posted:If Nick Foles was on the Falcons they'd have won the past two Super Bowls. If Doug Pederson was on the Falcons they'd have won at least last year. At least from what I am reading, it seems he did not let his foot off the gas. The play calling offensively down the stretch last year was horrendous and Sark has carried that torch through this year. Matt Ryan was not the problem last year. Can't really fault him for the loss.

Run Run Run FG to make it an 8-point game. It helps that it started from the Patriots like 20 because of a strip sack, but STILL THO If anything I wanted the Falcons to be more conservative and not eat that loving sack.

Chilichimp posted:I'm actually high on life atm, yes. The sun seems brighter, the air seems fresher. Agreed on Brady. And yep. Exactly what Atlanta needed to do. Run, Run, Run, FG to make it an 11 point game. Celebrate. I would have been happy with kneel down x 3, FG. Then to chase that ending with the final series @ Philly this year. NOW DQ is going to take charge more for offensive plays? 2 games too late bruh!

So, you're expecting a loss in the championship round? I mean, there's not a lot of "better" between "lost in the divisional round" and "superbowl"... ...not to mention the 2016 season was 11-5 and the 2017 season was 10-6, so not a lot of dropoff.

I'm not saying I expect a superbowl, but I do expect a postseason berth again. He did better down the stretch but man that offense fell apart against Philly. Then to drudge through all of it in a position to win, fade, shovel to 3rd string rb, slant (I'm ok with though MR needed to get more loft to let Julio carry his body forward) then the failed 4th down eliminating half the field while everyone slips and falls (not Sark's fault obviously). I think they should be better as well, but ya never know.
