Let’s all laugh at the Falcons

Rise Up seems appropriate.  It's certainly the only direction available.

Falcons are a sure bet to effectively eliminate themselves from contention week ~10, the play like a bat out of hell to cost themselves 10-15 draft slots

They're lucky Brees is scheduled to be back to save them the embarrassment of getting swept by Bridgewater.

Brees is lucky his starts will come just before the Falcons’ end of year “momentum for next season” / draft position destruction run.

34 points allowed in embarrassing loss to the Cards. 34 points allowed in embarrassing loss in the greatest collapse in SB history.

Coincidence? I think not.

Years, months, and days between the 10-run 1st inning against the (baseball) Cards and that Super Bowl? 2, 8, and 3...

LOLOL, not in the least. We’d wax them regardless of when the two games are.

ESPN's Week 7 Power Rankings

 

29. Atlanta Falcons (1-5)

Week 6 ranking: 25

Biggest weakness: The pass rush

The Falcons rank at the very bottom of the league in sacks per pass play at 2.6%. There are four teams over 10%, and the Falcons are the only team under 3.5%. The Falcons and Dolphins are tied for last in the league with five sacks each, and we know how folks have viewed the tanking Dolphins all year. Yes, the Falcons have faced some shifty quarterbacks and guys who have gotten the ball out quickly, but that's no excuse when you have Grady Jarrett creating havoc in the middle and a former sack champ in Vic Beasley Jr. -- Vaughn McClure

Thank goodness they took a guard instead of Burns after signing two FA guards. Man, that draft was so hard to watch. Burns was my guy after watching him in the combine drills. I said don’t be surprised if he gets a TD but I will say I was thinking more of a pick 6.

They shouldn't of passed on him and they also shouldn't be bad enough to be able to correct that mistake with Chase Young

Won’t lie. This worries me. I do not want that guy in the division. He is a monster.

yep, we need the Falcons to win a few games to get out of the top 5.  I think they can.  Ryan is having an incredible year, only to be wasted.

No one's gonna be laughing if they get a franchise QB out of the draft and hire a coach like Lincoln Riley
