A preview of the new Falcons stadium...or Arthurs Anus...or Kuechly Indoor Arena...

So I just came across this article about the Falcons new stadium.

Like the team or not, but they are getting a pretty freaking amazing stadium.  It will be considered an outdoor stadium that can close to become indoor (takes only 7 minutes to open/shut).  There will be tons of bathrooms and concession stands, as well as LED lighting.  It will be the first LEED Platnium certified sports complex, which is really cool.  Also, there will be a 50 ft tall, 360 degree Video monitor, which will be the largest in the world, and It will also be 3D.  

Check out the article, looks pretty dope.

It only makes me wonder when the Panthers get their new stadium?  You can only do so much to BOA before its time to completely rebuild.

The location of the video board is surely going to cause some neck issues. At least the Cowboys video board hangs much lower above the field and is angled toward the fans. That thing is going to be way up there and I doubt even half of the upper deck will get an unobstructed view of it. It's a cool concept but I think the execution will be quite poor.

BOA is classic and isn't going anywhere. As long as it is kept up to date with regular renovations I think we will play there for another 20 years. Location is great and I think it is a great looking stadium. Not a bad seat in the house.

While that new place does look great, all the bells and whistles won't change the fact that it resembles a butt hole. Call me old fashioned but I prefer our place.

    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game.  and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important. 
    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?
