Does Atlanta Look Like A sixth seed?

Atlanta is the in the Top 3 teams in the NFC with the Saints and Vikings IMO. Their record is reflective of the stupid difficult NFC South they play in.

I’m going to be 0 for 2 today

Rams defense is keeping them alive barely...offense and special teams are fumblin' and stumblin'

I had Chiefs and Falcons. I could be at least 1-1 if Falcons don't choke away their lead.

What do you think about the Vikings? Honestly. 

 

Btw, I missed you at the end of the Stanford football season.

I believe you guys are good enough to win the NFC. I would love to see that actually.

 

Missed you all too. I kept up with scores but I couldn’t watch the games as often as I wanted. I was studying...not fun lol. I did see the bowl game and that depressed me .

Me too. RockThatBlue and 2006Coltsbestever were rooting for us. Stanford could have won a few more games and the Bowl game. The losses were disappointing. Beating Washington was great.

San Diego state was the worst one. On to next year though. KJ will be even better. 

[snkdy]

Rams look awake. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Al Michaels sounds like one irritable dude. He is one of the best announcers ever but if he didn't want to be there calling the game than get me someone else. He is bashing everything tonight and even brought up Hockey. 13-10 at Half. Falcons still lead, Rams are showing their youth by not executing in key situations.

Boy. I hear you.!

People in 40 states are wearing 3 coats..and sitting in ice cold basements listening him whine about how tough it is to wait 90 seconds on replays calling a NFL playoff game on a Saturday night in 70-degree weather in Hollywood.

 

Come on, Al.  The steakhouse will still be open after the game.....Drink your wine cooler and get back to 'work'

I know, I have never heard him complain like this throughout a game. Even CC has paused a couple of times trying to respond to his commentary.

[buffalo34]

Well, the Falcons look much more committed to the run than they did in the Super Bowl. That's cool.

That hurry up keeps Wade Phillips from subbing in his different packages of defenders for each down.

Good stuff

Titans up

Titans got lucky today but if they are going to new England next week they will get destroyed. 45-10.

It's an additional bye week for NE.

[oldunclemark]

 The Falcons have turned 3 Tds into 3 field goals....

..although Wade Phillips red zone defense has something to do with that

[2006Coltsbestever]

A FG here puts Atlanta up 19-10, that would be huge.

[oldunclemark]

This is just a terrible playing field...hard  play a winner-take-all game on loose, crumbly turf

[2006Coltsbestever]

Bryant from 54, that was a huge 3 points!

Bryant from 39, that was a huge 3 points to put the Falcons up 11 with 3 minutes left in the Super Bowl after the Falcons ran down the clock and made the Patriots use all of their timeouts!

 

Ok I'll shut up.

Rams probably did it on purpose because Atlanta thrives on a fast pace turf. Some people said the 49ers staff kept their field muddy and awful vs Dallas in the Championship Game years ago so Emmitt wouldn't be able to run. I wouldn't doubt it.

I want to see Buffalo play the Pats again with McCoy healthy because it is such a huge divisional rivalry. Those teams and fanbases hate each other.

 

Pats fans don't hate Buffalo. We definitely hate Jets fans, and I would say Dolphins fans are 2nd on the list. Bills fans are ok though. They are definitely hardcore. How do you hate the Bills, really? They kind of have that Cubs thing going for them.

I remember how the AFC East was too back in the day. Pats, Bills, Jets, Dolphins, and Colts. I just like those matchups. Brings back memories.

Yeah glad my Cubs finally broke through and won it all. It was about time  I have been a fan of them since the mid 80's. It was cool watching the RedSox break through too in 2004. Coming back from 0-3 to beat the Yankees was the most unbelievable thing I think I have ever seen in sports!

It hurts the pass rushers because they slip when the O-linemen make contact with them

[oldunclemark]

I thought I read where that the Rams have started the same 5  O-linemen every game this year.

 

It shows

We'll be paying a visit next year at LOS. First time there since 2012, Luck's rookie year and Chan Gailey/Ryan Fitzpatrick's last year as HC/QB in Buffalo.

 

Up until this year we've only really played the Colts when the schedule rotation had us playing the whole AFC South, lol.

Yeah it depends now how teams finish but I always like when we play the Bills, Dolphins, or Jets. It isn't often. We played the Pats every year pretty much for years because both teams won their Division every year or would just play in the Playoffs. As far as fanbases go, Dolphins fans are maybe the worst I have ever chatted with. They are one bitter crew.

Matty Ice just put the game away! Goodnight Rams.

That was a play a lot of teams cant do......dragging the WR all the way across the field and trusting the QB to make the soft toss ..

 

Falcons were 10-6...sometimesit sounded like they had a bad year. They didn't.  

Atlanta at Philadelphia, right?

Yep and Atlanta will spank Philly too.
