gently caress the Falcons and all, but their current team is actually pretty likable and the offense is very fun to watch.

Silly Burrito posted:Wishing for your heated rival to even make the Super Bowl: I live in Portland, surrounded by fairweather Seahawks fans, so I root against Seattle in any and all circumstances because the effects of their winning and losing are most directly noticeable to me. I don't have to talk to Falcons fans every day about their "historic" defense or dynasty-in-the-making.

weird Asian candy posted:I hear ya. Now take a seat and let me tell you about our historic offense and dynasty-in-the-making. You see it all started after Seattle lost the Superbowl in 2014... I can always ignore dumb posts, but I can't just put dumb coworkers and friends on ignore, so in person aggravation will always win out. Plus, until you've bought a dumb "get in" falcon smilie and post it at every opportunity you still won't be worse than Seahawks posters.

The one constant in the NFC South is that no one stays at the top for very long, so I expect the Falcons reign to be short lived, not for any specific football reasons, but because that's just the way it is.

Chilichimp posted:Keep polishing that ring... until it falls off the dead hand of Drew Brees and you realize you don't even have a Quarterback anymore. Every quarterback dies, but not every quarterback truly lives...to win a Super Bowl for his team. For instance, Matt Ryan.

Chilichimp posted:Is there any fire to the smoke about NOLA wide receiver infighting and asking for trades? Cooks was openly complaining last year about not getting enough touches and New Orleans showed with Stills that they're more than willing to trade a talented wide receiver for off the field reasons, so I'd say it's probably true. As long as they get first round value for him I don't mind it. Finding wide receivers for Brees has been one thing the Saints haven't struggled with.

BlindSite posted:Saints.txt for the last 5 years. Probably trying (poorly) to win football games. Just a guess. It's like people forgot that they traded away Jimmy Graham two years ago and everyone had this same freakout and the offense still produced. Receiver is the most replaceable position on the team and they need talent and depth at other places, especially for the post Brees years.

What a weird thing to create a get-hype promotional image for. "Desmond Truffaunt AGREED TO TERMS" "Devonta Freeman SNAGGED THE GOOD PARKING SPOT" "Vic Beasley WENT BACK FOR SECONDS". These are just some of the things that went on at Falcons HQ today.

weird Asian candy posted:I know they worked him out, but what is a Duke Riley? A linebacker. He's not the most physically talented guy but he has good instincts and was a key part of what was a drat good LSU defense. LSU has had a good history of putting solid, if unspectacular, into the NFL lately, so I think it's a good pickup at that spot.

If the Saints have one of their random non-garbage defensive seasons that seem to come along every three or four years they could easily make a playoff run. But I thing Tampa probably wins the division next year but has an early playoff exit. Then Mike Smith takes a head coaching job and they regress.

The line was hosed when Strief went down. They could have probably worked around Armstead being out by providing help on that side, but they couldn't help both sides against a pretty good Vikings front. Despite being an awful game to watch it was still somehow winnable if they could have gotten anything at all going in the red zone.

BlindSite posted:Brees is probably going to poo poo house the back end but at least it's a good team for Cam to get his arm dialed in against. He's not going to have time to throw, the way our line is playing. This Saints team is just bad, pretty much top to bottom, unlike the previous decade when they've mostly just been bad on defense and special teams. The offense as is cant score enough to win against even mediocre teams. I'd be shocked if this isn't Payton's last season, and probably Brees as well in that case.

I didn't really expect it going into this season because I thought we'd see some incremental improvement, but the way it looks now I think everything gets blown up at the end of the year. Brees gone, coaching staff gone, Loomis gone.
