Birds won again. Who here thought they would be 9 and 5?
Playoffs would be great, but I am not holding my breath. All I can say is that they are better than ever and have the talent to improve even more next year.
Michael Turner has brought the run to Atlanta, and Matt Ryan is running the offense like a 5th year quarterback.
I am so prout to be a Falcons fan!

i don't think anyone thought they would be 9-5. i think its awesome that they can pull off that record, especially in a division with other good teams, after all the shit they went through with vick. i figured they would have a bengal or lion-like season.

Dime Flat, CB Dogs Blitz. Pinch the Dline, move the secondary closer. Vick cant do shit on that.

Hes out in less than a year, but hasnt even faced his NFL suspension. Id have to imagine he will be suspended from the NFL for at least a year.

10 months I think. We still own him, but he won't play. Blanc would never have it.
As far as pride goes, screw him. He did an awful thing and deserves more time. You ACTUALLY still see Vick jerseys at the games! I can't tell if it is B/C the people sitting around our seats are as cheap as we are, or if they don't have a clue....

When does Vick get out of Jail?

That'll take the pride away from being a Falcons fan, lol. Ryan, Turner and Roddy sure are a damn good place to start a franchise. Id like to see ATL and Philly make the wild card. But I dont give an F who makes it in the other spot, as long as Philly does. I'll be pulling for ATL to lose the next couple games. Along with Dallas and TB

You watch your fucking mouth when you are talking about the Polish Rifle.

Eagles win, handedly. A little dissapointing that I lost my fantasy playoff matchup by 3 pts, though. Had mcnabb, westbrook, and Eagles D.

I really really really can't stand the three douche bag commentators for MNF, I've heard them contradict themselves so many times it's ridiculous.

I'd rather listen to wasted Madden than these three pricks.

Im curious what the odds are for Houston making the playoffs?

At the end of the season - the same as philly.

[jflip2002]

Statistically Houston is supposed to be the third best offense in football too, lol. So apparently statistics do not mean much. Id say there is a VERY good shot of TB and/or ATL losing one of their last games. And theres a strong chance we will win our last 3. The only tough match up will be Dallas.

We play the browns tonight, so it should be a cake walk. We lost to chicago earlier, when we couldnt score on 4 downs at the goal line.

As far as third place football team, sure. But its not like third place in the NFC West, where its a complete joke. Its the best division in football. Philly will be a playoff team this year, then who knows what happens after that. After we kill CLE tonight, its just Washington and Dallas. Washington isnt impressive, and we usually own Dallas at least once a year. Things are lining up nicely.

Seattle should tank the rest of the season in hopes of getting a better pick. Maybe a QB or an Olineman would be nice. Just dont draft like the Texans do.

Statistically philly only has a 19% chance of making the playoffs.

Argue all you want - it's math.

lol, jflip has some inferiority complex and all he's got going for him is a third place football team. The only put down you use is "your shit team" or some version of that.

Anyways, I didn't know how to feel about the seahawks beating st. louis. A win is nice on one hand, but on the other hand a better draft pick would be good too.

Playing for the draft is weak IMO. Teams need to play to win. You'll still have a top 5 pick.
