Their offense couldn't run, and our corners did pretty good shutting down what is, for most teams, average receivers. Their defense is a worse lineup than last year full of players that don't even fit their scheme.
F*** that guy

The sting of back-to-back last-second losses is palpable
Almost makes up for those Bartkowski hail mary passes that beat the Saints long ago.
Almost.

# 1978 — Atlanta Falcons vs. New Orleans Saints: The Falcons beat the Saints 20–17 on a 57-yard Hail Mary pass from Falcons quarterback Steve Bartkowski to Alfred Jackson. The play was known as "Big Ben" and was practically repeated by the Falcons against the Saints only two weeks later in the "Big Ben II" game (see more about the "Big Ben II" attempt below).

* 1978 — Atlanta Falcons vs. New Orleans Saints: Just two weeks after the Falcons beat the Saints 20–17 on the "Big Ben" pass play, the Falcons beat them again by the same score on the final play of the game after an intercepted Hail Mary pass when Saint defensive back Mo Spencer was called for pass interference by side judge Grover Klemmer. The Falcons scored on a run from the 1 yard line on the next play. The play became known as "Big Ben II." In this particular instance, the NFL later acknowledged that the interference call was the wrong call, and the case was cited by some as an early example for the need for football officiating crews to have access to instant replays. Though incomplete in this game, it should be noted that the pass play really began to be used by other teams significantly more often after this game, as a pass interference penalty that would move the ball to the 1 yard line was now viewed as a possible result from the play — if not an even more likely result than completing the pass itself. However, officials have actually proved very reluctant to call pass interference during Hail Marys since this game, possibly because it appears difficult to determine in real time just who made contact with whom, with so many players congregating in one place to catch the ball — not to mention the high stakes of making an incorrect call with the outcome of the game in balance. Also, in the 1980s, pass interference rules were relaxed in cases where defenders made contact but were making an honest attempt for the ball (see more about the first "Big Ben" attempt above).

I'm just...confused. do falcon fans not pay attention? our backup DT's "were getting torn up by sjax"
really? one run for 50 yards where he did it all himself and we got wrecked by the run because 10/11 carries for 27 yards prior was oh so magnificent.
either they're really bad fans or they don't know shite about football.
or...both.

One guy mentions it.
The he gets "well, we were wearing them down. I"ll take 10 for 2 yards if he gets 50 on the next".

Toss out the Katrina gimme season (when the refs turned blind eyes to Stains transgressions) and the Bounty gate (which was exacerbated by league officials who let it go till it stunk too bad) bullshurt and those numbers are closer to 50% which is a little worse than our historic record against the creeps from the sewer dome but still not bad for a division rival.
So mad.

In all honesty, without the Falcons, all our games with division rivals would be like Panthers games.
I love the Falcons for that. They're so hateable.

If Sean Payton was the coach of the Falcons they would have won at least 2 Super Bowls. Sean Payton coaches circles around Mike Smith.
He gets it.
Only half of it. Ain't no 2 SB's in the Falcons no matter who is coaching.

Is this what it feels like to be an Alabama fan always beating LSU and posting on the SEC Rant?
