Question from a falcons fan, why do you guys hate our fanbase?

I hate the falcons, and the fact anyone could support that team makes you all seem like idiots. Now go away.

a team that holds a 17-11 all time record over the panthers? wow if we are idiots for supporting a supperior team since the panthers have came into the league then what does that make you guys? genius? the fact that you guys had a shot at a superbowl this season, when you finished 1 game ahead of us in the division, and got beat by us, and we are a rebuilding team!, makes you guys look like idiots. no offense.

I wouldn't exactly say that the Falcons are a superior team. You have to look at the overall body of work, not just the record of an inter division rivalry. Even more, I am sure that that particular stat became skewed when Vick was your QB, because we all know that he used to terrorize the Panthers. Vick is gone now, and we should be beating you guys with a lot more regularity.

On an off note, it doesn't make the Falcons organization look like it's chock full of geniuses just because they landed Matt Ryan due to Vick's stupidity.

It's the fact that you guys are our rivals.... We are in the same division, closest team to us, and Michael Vick beat us more then we beat him. I hate everyone in the NFC-South, trust me, but the ATL gets the most hate out of the three.

well to be honest you guys do not have a winning record agianst any of our qb's since 1995 so spread the hate around to chris chandler matt ryan and vick.

it doesnt make the carolina panthers look to bright either to take this long to realise jake delhomme sucks but are so smart that they are going to start him in the 2009 season, with out a qb competition and hope that things pan out

50% vs Matt Ryan and I hate Chris Chandler too, just not the same level of hate I have for Michael Vick.

I also dislike the Falcons' fans little jabs in threads when they are asking why we hate their fan base.

I also hate how people in Atlanta call it "Hotlanta".

In fact, I hate the grammar a majority of the Falcons' fans use, but the same goes for most of football fans in general.

You can pretty much see why in this thread. All you got were direct, honest answers to your questions and you instantly started firing off about the overall head to head record, espousing how much better Atlanta is than Charlotte, and jerking off Matt Ryan.

Over the years, I've noticed that the Falcons fans have trouble sticking to football. The conversation just about always switches over to how Atlanta is a faster, more happening city than Charlotte and how we sit on our front porches at dusk and play banjos. Whatever. The fact that Atlanta is the self-appointed capital of the south has nothing to do with the rivalry.

Posts like this are generally good reason of why we don't respect you.

I, for one, hate the city of Atlanta. All of their sports teams annoy me. Their city, in my eyes, is just a bigger, dirtier version of Charlotte. Why anyone would want to live there, I don't know. That's not really the topic of discussion here, though.

Call me an asshole. I don't care. I don't think I could possibly ever root for any team from Atlanta.

Matt Ryan surprised a lot of people this season, including Falcons fans. You can say you knew he was going to be awesome, but you'd be lying. And so would most of their front office. Nobody knew he was going to be good, or even remotely decent. Taking him was a risk that they had to take. Without a high profile pick like Ryan, they'd never have a chance at removing the stench that Vick left when he went to prison.

The real test to see if the Falcons have really turned a corner will be this next season. Every team has their time in the sun. It's the teams that can sustain it over a few years that really prove their worth. Hell, even the Browns looked pretty good last season.

    • This was a good breakdown from Daniels.  Last year has had a lasting impact on Young. He still isn't getting the time needed from the OL - the OL we have is made to establish the run and for the run to be in play.  We get behind and have to throw all game we are doomed with this O-line. His receivers have to catch the ball when he makes a good throw to them, he can't have them dropping his good passes. Why are we running 4 slants all toward the same direction?  Why a triple option on 4th and 1? That's on the coaches. Bryce gets hurried and starts slinging the ball where it shouldn't be thrown, more study and recognition from him are needed.  Bryce doesn't step up in the pocket and throws too soon and unbalanced.  He over and under throws the ball because of it.  That's on him.  If the pocket isn't there and he can't get his base set he needs to check down or "live to fight another day." He has been thrown to the wolves and has lost his confidence.  This team doesn't have much, if any, talent and it's a cluster.  I think he can still be an NFL QB.  Maybe not a QB1 in the short term, but if he has a chance with better coaching and personnel he may be better than we are giving him credit for. I think we ruined him last year and have not fixed anything to help him this year.  If we can't run or get way behind all NFL defenses are coming after him.  Dalton has more respect and defenses didn't always sell out to get to him because he'd hit a quick slant, screen, or check down because he has the experience to know what's coming and what to do. Just my 2 cents.
    • All depends on who the backup is. Josh Allen probably would have been benched too if there were better backups than Matt Barkley and Nate peterman.
    • Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.
