Atlanta Falcons are now on notice

I'd love a win, but no Clausen heroics to leave lingering doubts heading into offseason about his future as our QB. I know that one decent game wouldn't overshadow a season of suck, but why play around with the notion...

man screw that. If Clausen can win us the game, hells yeah, I hope he does. There is no way he can play well enough to make me question taking Luck, so let him play well. If nothing else, he'll make a good stopgap until Luck is ready for the NFL, or increase his value as trade bait, if he improves.

I did put Goodson in front of him. He would be #4 if DWill was not on IR. Sharing some twitter time with Sutton :D

Sweet.

I want the win. If not the win, I want their starters limping into the postseason.

We're playing the role of the '08 Saints, the Falcons of '08 us, and the Saints, the '08 Falcons. I hope the outcome is different than it was in week 17 of '08.

Okay, I'll buy into the trade bait thing, but a stopgap for Luck? We need a veteran for that job, who can also mentor the young QB.

True, we didn't have one of those for Jimmy, but oh well.

you get a veteran no matter who our young QB is next year... be it clausen, newton, luck, or.. mallet...

that does not mean the veteran starts. I see a very likely opening day roster of clausen, rookie qb, veteran qb, with Clausen starting and giving way as the season goes on to the rookie (sooner or later depending on his play)

You guys are hilarious. For once, let us unite in our hatred of the Failclowns. You just gained a mass of fans, and there would be no sweeter way to end the regular season than to see the Falcons lose to your Panthers. Well, and to see our Saints beat TB for the division, but let's just stick to what we have in common.

Go Panthers!

    • You can have 3 QBs on the roster, even if one is protected on the PS. I get that this is how it's done now in the NFL, but it doesn't mean it's a good idea. NfL teams also throw rookies in before they're ready, BY being a perfect example, instead of sitting them and letting them learn.  I understand Daltons presence, but he is not the future at the backup position. So it is in our best interests to churn through potential QBs to find someone with backup potential for when Dalton is gone, if BY is still the starter, to learn as QB2 at that time.  I like to get ahead
    • Also, the new regime in the front office is absolutely dog shit. Pure, unadulterated dog shit. Any connection I had there quit the franchise long ago because of the horrible work environment. So yeah, that ship has sailed. Lol
    • I still think people look at how Bryce ended the season wrong. Yes, he was clearly a million times better than he was as a rookie or even the start of last season, but he was still miles away from being some great QB.  He was a serviceable game manager who did some nice things, but he still wasn't a "#1 draft pick that you trade the farm for" type of player. Again, I'm never going to root for his failure, I'm rooting for him to become the best QB in the league as long as he's a Panther.  But he's still more on the wrong side of the fence at the moment for being our long term QB solution, he has to prove he can be that FAR more than the opposite, as he hasn't done anything yet to earn that distinction.
