Absolutely. It can't be denied that they put in the effort that game. I'm sure it generated a bunch of positive momentum. How did we do in the next round anyway? I forget.

Renting a boat for a private outing on a lake, where they are the only 2 people on the boat, and she just happens to be 7 months pregnant, is really challenging to explain away. I mean that is just not a situation that a nearly full term mom-to-be puts herself into without her husband/partner/SO being there, even if it was just doing their "required duty."

Anything about either of the Superbowl appearances. There are no guarantees the team ever gets back to that game. The Jets won SB3, and have never returned. The Bills lost 4 in a row and have never been back. The Vikings have lost 4 and not made it back. Marino lost in his only Superbowl, but the prevailing opinion was he would get another shot. Never happened.

There is no reason why we couldn't start our own board, as the Falcons fans did when their official board closed down. It is obvious that nothing is going to change about this place, no matter how many complaints are made about it being left for scrap. Well, there is 1 change that will happen. When you show up here and there is nothing at all because the plug was finally pulled on it.

Come on down, Superbowl-winning qb Kenny Pick-it!

I am not into gambling, so take that into consideration. That said, Vegas is not in the habit of losing money. It happens from time to time, certainly. I do think it is telling that they are betting on Panthers finishing last in the South again, and taking a step back. Maybe it is disrespect, as I personally think the Falcons are destined to be last with an unsettled qb situation. Honestly though we are not too far from being in a similar boat. Not the same but similar.

BetMGM has 6.5 wins as the betting line for the upcoming season. Our rivals are at 8.5 (Bucs) and 7.5 (Falcons and Saints)

Yeah, Saints Report is still very active, and for Bucs, I go to JoeBucsFan and while it is not a freeform message board, every news story has a comment section. Way back in the Gruden era the team closed down their official board to update and revitalize it. It just stayed closed

Yes, but the board members that were still regulars made their own replacement board. It is very much alive. Supposedly they vet new folks, but I got in no problem when they launched it, so I doubt there is any internet sleuthing going on there. https://falcons.boards.net/

There are other outlets for sports talk these days. So, to a certain extent, this is a relic. It not being updated/maintained continues to keep it as a relic. Panthers Reddit requires you to be a certain type of fan, or you may not enjoy your experience. I don't come around as much as I did in the good old days. I take a long break after the season, will hang around for a bit at draft time, and then start to come back regularly sometime in preseason. The other sources for our division rivals are all worthwhile to visit, and are very much alive and kicking.

I would say we wouldn't get anything for him in a trade, but we found 1 team stupid enough to trade us a 4th for Mingo. I don't think they trade him though, barring an offer like that, but they won't pick up his option and just let him walk after year 4. Will he not be nearly 30 at that point anyway?

The 5th round picks, both of them, are skewing it favorably. Both those prospects were expected to go round 3 or 4 from what I've seen.

I think the organization is placing way too much confidence, and hope, in Brooks contributing this season.

I'm scared if either of them have to come in and win a game this upcoming season.
