That seemed meaner than I intended it to be. Historically, the Falcons have been jokes. However, they've greatly improved since Arthur Blank took the reins from Rankin Smith. They've improved to be more like the mediocre Panthers instead of the god-awful Lions and Bengals.

I thought we would be mediocre this season too (7-9 - 9-7) because of the young defense and the tough schedule...but now im not so sure these guys cant contend with anyone (thats the roller coaster of the NFL season). 12-4 and a bye sure would be nice. If they could pull that off, maybe we could run Thomas Dimitroff and Mike Smith right out of town!

Hey, maybe I am accustomed to mediocrity, or maybe I have been around the NFL long enough to have reasonable expectations, but IMO if a coach goes 12-5, they get a one year pass before I call for their heads.

Mike Smith reminds me much of John Fox when he first got here. They will see in about 4 or 5 years what we are dealing with when a coach becomes complacent from a little bit of success.

I'm sick of this conservative bullsh*t!

You come out of halftime with NO OFFENSIVE URGENCY whatsoever!

7-0 is not a f*cking game, dumb*ss!

PUT A F*CKING TEAM AWAY WHEN YOU'VE GOT THEM DOWN!

7-3, still no urgency!

F*ck Jeff Davidson!

    • If there's another QB that came to the combine after packing on 15 lbs of water weight to hide his playing weight, I don't remember it.  I understand it's all part of the pre-draft game, and he participated. The FO was stupid and ignored huge red flags.  On a side note though, I was at the airport a few weeks ago and saw a basketball team going through and decided to try and look through them. I'm 6'2 and these guys were 6'6 and up. I was amazed by how much I couldn't see around them. And these guys weren't 300 plus in pads. I still think he's having a hell of a time seeing the field at the NFL speed. 
    • There is merit to the points you're making here. On the flip side one could argue it took us investing 150 million in the oline for him to have a breakout season. And he has still yet to hit 1k rushing yards in a season. As far as Brooks goes the position does not require that significant of a draft investment for many other teams. That's not being negative it's just a matter of fact. The 49ers did quite well with a UDFA running back while McCaffrey was out. It is understandable that some people have concerns. That being said it boils down to whether or not you believe in the player. We just have to see what happens with him and Brooks.
    • Okay, that day in Vegas had to embarrass him completely. Andy showed him how to do the job.  What I think when I go there, why did it take Andy? He has had game after game of watching actual NFL QBs work and that didn't do it?  Anyhow Andy did not mess around, he stood in there and did his job and got rid of the ball ahead of the pressure. Down the field. With the same players Bryce had. Night and day.  If that didn't wake him up nothing ever would. But I don't think he has any sort of top NFL QB in him, he just lacks the full tool kit.
