How to beat the Falcons 101.. Let them take a commanding lead into the 4th quarter. (sometimes the 3rd quarter works).
Really depends on which team shows up. Having such a hard time beating 2 shitty teams does not leave me with much confidence .
I'm still shocked. That was a total team oopsie. First, them players are pros. They should know the rules. Second, the special teams coach should go over the rules before every game. Third, the head coach should be reminding the special teams coach to go over the rules before every game. Complete team eff up.
Falcons have been blowing leads way before the superbowl. That's just when the mainstream figured it out and made it cliche. It seems to transcend coaches and players. They had several other similar blown leads that same season, plus other close calls. I don't think the 2013 NFC championship game (17pt lead), the NFL man of the year arrested for soliciting a prostitute the night before the super bowl, or your franchise QB arrested for dogfighting were any better. Is it even fun to talk trash anymore?
Born & raised in the burbs. I was at the game when Walter Payton broke Jim Brown's rushing record. I blame the management for shitty football. Marc Trestman, Mike Martz, John Fox . All great choices. Then we have the "Year of Mike Glennon" which totally screwed Mitch's change of developing .
