Wow. Ok, now it's really over. Lol.
Geeg.
Let's start the Pats game now.
Down 31-0 you have to go for 2 after every TD. What possible reason could you have for taking the PAT there? Turns it from a possible 3 score deficit to a definite 4 score deficit. Just stupid.
Julio Jones is not human just saying.
This scenario requires the Packers to play defense.Quote:

Again, it's football not rocket science. Lots of times these "brilliant" coaches act like simple-minded hicks who spend most of their lives thinking about a game where people put on helmets and fight for a leather ball.
Damn the falcons are gonna win the whole thing.
Do you even Patriots bro?Quote:

Moot point though, Atlanta spanked that ass. GB had some tough breaks like the Ripowski fumble at the goal line and Crosby missing early, but the GB defense was in incredibly porous. Going to be a good SuperBowl.
EDIT: Fuck Crosby btw. Of all times to miss a FG. Bastard could've missed one last week.
I am pleased with the out come today. I didn't think it would be THAT easy for Atlanta.
I have the Pats game on behind me in the background. I haven't watched one second. Hard to care about a game where you hate both teams strongly. That is why I hate watching AFC. So god damn boring. At least NFC mixes it up year by year.
Blount is my hero.
He did good for me in FF this year. Mostly. Except when we needed him most.Quote:

Hate the pats so much lol. Annoying. Really hope the falcons can win, they certainly looked like they have a chance.
2 receivers with 9 catches 180 yards and 2 touchdowns today. One was basically unstoppable and every time his qb threw deep you had a feeling it would be him catching it for a big gain. He made defenders look silly all day.
The other was Julio Jones
Falcons have scored a TD on their opening drive for 8 straight games
i think if they do it again, they'll win. it would keep the confidence level extremely high and the third down magic alive and real. if they don't score a TD on their opening drive in the superbowl, i think the Pats will take it. both of the defenses are overmatched but the Pats have more pieces back there so the Falcons need to strike early and often i believe
Patriots seem to be the underdogs, imo. Falcons be thirsty. Patriots are thirsty, too, but I'm not sure they're as thirsty.
They aren't the underdogs. They have more experience and a more well rounded team. They have a pretty good defense, and a very good offense. Falcons have a ridiculous offense and a defense thats certainly below average. The mismatch is Pats O vs Falcons D -- Falcons insane offense has to make up for that mismatch by continuing to play out of their minds and rolling over a very competent Pats D if they want to win.
You're looking at it from a very conventional viewpoint. I don't care about the reputations of the teams. I care about how they're currently playing. They were both on fire yesterday. Falcons looked godly.Quote:

I did toss in experience in there and sometimes it's a factor sometimes it isn't. I think it'll be a factor somewhat, just going through the whole Superbowl media week and the extra week off. But that was a very small part of my post anyway. Both teams have looked good, and both teams have won handily in their only 2 playoff games. That said, the Patriots defense is more capable than the Falcons, and they've been playing like it. The Falcons D is reliant moreso on their crazy offense to give them a lead to protect. The Pats D I think could provide body blows in a lower scoring slugfest (or the more likely scenario, come up with stops if they fall behind in the score). Do I think the SB will be low scoring? No, but I think their defense has more capability to make plays. I do think Atlanta possesses a better offense, but the gap isn't all that huge. In a heavyweight offensive showdown, I'll give odds to the team with a better defense
Every not Pats fan needs to be saying this for the next two weeks. I fear it won't matter. Pats win by 13Quote:

The patroits and falcons defense wash. The biggest thing is Tom Brady vs. Matt Ryan/Julio DAH GOD Jones.
Plus it's a dome game which means Matt Ryan is immune to sucking.
True. Atlanta playing in a dome changes a lot of shit.
I think Atlanta will win a shootout because they'll want it more. Late turnover will decide it.
Saying one team will "want it more" when they're both playing for a Superbowl is ridiculously dumb.Quote:

Atlanta might be good enough to beat them, though. I think it's gonna be a really great game.
Atlanta blows New England out Seattle v. Denver style.
Honestly, go fuck yourself.Quote:

Atlanta won't score more than 23. Sadly.
You guys see Tennessee's QB (Peyton's alma matter) playing in the Senior Bowl has a forehead that makes Peyton's look normal?!
Google Josh Dobbs
He has an alopecia condition that causes his hair not to grow. He doesn't have eyebrows. Now google him and look at some of the memes about him. It sucks that he's the butt of all these jokes.
Damn, bro. I hope you're not making fun of him. Pretty fucked up.Quote:

Can't we kill the Pro Bowl already?
