    Being on the right side of alot of close games says they have been lucky more than dominant. They've got 2 score wins over PHI/KC/SD...everything else was a nailbiter. They are good on offence, not great. Give up lots of yards but generate a decent amount of turnovers to cover that up.

    Nothing is exceptional about the Atlanta Falcons and nothing suggests they are a championship team. Merely a good team trying to pretend they are amongst the elite thanks to some heroic comeback wins vs scrubs. This does not win you playoff games against elite teams.

    They have alot to prove vs New York this week. If this team is a Super Bowl contender, they win this game easily.
    None of what you said is untrue, it just has nothing to do with losing to the Panthers in a meaningless game. If they lose to the Giants, then you can say they "aren't ready for primetime" ...

      Or maybe the Patriots are just really good and getting hot at the right time?

      Nah couldn't be that.

      Fun Fact: A few years ago, the Patriots blew out the Jets on MNF only to lose to them in the playoffs.

        Nah, why would we just wait and watch what happens? Let's instead stick with making sweeping declarative statements a month before the playoffs start. That's the best way to follow the NFL. Dave is the best.

          It will be a meaningless win for the Falcons this week when the Giants beat them in the playoffs...........again.

              A 3-9 team calls you out, you kick their ass. Instead, Carolina proves what many already suspected - you ain't ready for primetime.

                  Which is why I said it was pointless to read anything into the Falcons lost last week, in the regular season, when the post I was responding to was made. That is kind of my point.

                  dave is a goof.
