Two weeks.

Oh boy, now we have to wait 2 weeks for the next damn game. It was weird how everybody in town was calm and confident. Usually before a big sports event, we're all preparing our nooses for the final whistle.

Well done to the Falcons. Extremely impressive.

ardeo 23-01-2017 08:50 AM

Should be a good Superbowl. As much as I dislike the Pats, I can't begrudge Brady and Bill another SB, want Calvin's to win though!

Yeah Falcons had it dead and buried first half. Should make for a good Superbowl too though.

Congrats, I'm glad you guys made it.

Of course I want the Pats to win, but I don't mind Atlanta and it would be good for the Boston boy to win a ring. Victory for New England either way :D

When the NFL season kicked off in September, sportsbook operator CG Technology had taken more bets on the Cleveland Browns to win the Super Bowl than it had on the Falcons.

The Falcons began the season as 100-1 long shots to win the Super Bowl and could be found at 150-1 in mid-September after opening with a home loss to Tampa Bay. William Hill's Nevada sportsbook took 184 bets on Atlanta to win the Super Bowl at odds of 100-1 or greater, according to vice president of marketing Michael Grodsky.
I still can't believe that home loss to the Bucs. (Or the Chargers, or the the Chiefs)

Good Luck Funk, obviously I'm biased, but the Falcons are an entertaining team who for my money are still underrated.

This is without question one of the best offenses of all time. Up there with the 07 Patriots and the Moss Vikings.

ardeo 24-01-2017 09:31 AM

They gave Shanahan some kudos in the coverage about his play design and play calling and I totally agree he should be getting lots of plaudits. Ryan is playing great but the scheme and players are fitting perfectly together. It will be a really interesting match up against the Pats defence.

In comparison the Packers just ask Rodgers to do everything on his own with vanilla play calling and I don't even know what the Steelers OC was trying to do against the Pats.

tsunamiman 24-01-2017 01:27 PM

We all know whats gonna happen. Number 1 offense firing on all cylinders, scoring for fun, best wideout in the NFL, playcaller gets plaudits for being one of the best

.....plays against the pats in the playoffs....

Scores 12 points and Julio gets 2 catches for 12 yards.

As sad as that makes me.

kayjay 25-01-2017 04:34 AM

I just know wanting so bad for Brady to get kicked in the face = Pats win.

saxoneagle 26-01-2017 10:58 AM

It's all a bit sad how you can't appreciate you're watching the GOAT play.

tsunamiman 26-01-2017 11:10 AM

I think the hatred for the Pats is more on belichick than brady. The patriots are basically the Man U of the NFL.

ardeo 26-01-2017 11:25 AM

I think they are both the GOAT at their respective positions.

But, they aren't fun to watch, which is why there is any debate over being GOAT.

Absolutely true.

I hope the ball tamperers get well and truly stuffed.

SJPLDN 26-01-2017 07:20 PM

As a Falcons fan I can say that I am weirdly confident we can beat Pats next weekend :sunglasses:

Unproven.

I hope the noise pumpers get well and truly stuffed.

And tbh, if you believe the balls were tampered with when Science disproves all accusations of it, you're either blind, ******** or both.
