Atlanta deserved this after watching them run all around the dome knocking hats off GB fans heads.  

This is by far the biggest choke job in the history of sport.  And the great thing is we all start back at square one in 2017.  

KEEP POUNDING BOYS...Cant wait to upgrade and come back and take over the division we own.  AND I GUARANTEE we win the division next year.

Dude. Not as happy as I wish I was.

Pulled for NE on priniciple, but Im still tired of watching the same garbage teams win as I said after the game last year-when I said my interest was waning.

 

Yeah, we couldn't be the last team in the South to win it. And anything that makes Bill Maher cry like a little girl makes me happy. But the cheating Patriots don't deserve this.

It matters because comebacks are hard. They're especially hard when the stakes are the highest. There's a reason why there hasn't been a successful big comeback in 50 Super Bowls.

The Falcons will have to absolutely fall flat on their faces in the 2nd half for the Pats to even stand a chance. More likely is that they march down the field for 7 and Super Bowl parties around America start winding down early and a bunch of people turn to Netflix for the remainder of their evening entertainment.

Lolll you were saying??

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
