Preserve The Iceberg, Don't Let Matty Ice Melt: The Official 2016 Atlanta Falcons Season Thread

we byke in the playoffs

Honestly, the only team that might give us trouble in the playoffs is GB. They coming in on a win streak with arguably, the best QB in the game. With that being said, Matt is still the MVP though. The Giants are also a team to watch for but we can beat them easily if Eli continues to play like garbage.

I think we can make a run brehs
I want that KC vs ATL rematch because that L was a fluke

The funny thing about GB is that they could lose at DET and possibly not make the playoffs. Only DAL, us, SEA & NYG have clinched anything. We could still see a bum ass team like Tampa or WAS make it in there

Im scared of Greenbay and then I'm not, strange I know. Rodgers is in Godmode right now this we know but I feel good about our chances in a shootout cause our D is only slightly better then GB and I think we could get a crucial defensive stop to swing the game.

Plus beating a hot GB will send message

 

[The ADD]

I knew that game was getting flexed

 

[Nostalgic]

Only teams I fear in the post season are the Giants and Packers.

Packers because Aaron Rodgers is on a hot streak

Giants because in the post season Eli can go into ''Kim Peek'' mode

I have a huge feeling the Cowboys will lay a huge egg in the playoffs

 

[Nostalgic]

Falcons shooting to keep the second seed.
Hopefully they can put the game away early and no major injuries.

My wife got us seats too don't forget it's been moved to a 4:25 start

As for the rest/rust debate I'll take the rest. Yes I understand the argument of being hot and wanting to continue to play but I'll take my chances if only having to win 2 games to make the Super Bowl with at least one of those being a home game plus getting all our guys that extra week of rest is huge

As for the NFC none of the teams scare me

1. Dallas is beatable, force Dak to throw it downfield and you win
3. Seattle would have to come here and without Earl Thomas and now Lockett they're a wounded team
4. Green Bay we already beat
5. NYG can look pathetic or dominant in the same game
6. Redskins just got blown out at home to CAR

If we clinch the 2 seed we'd face the highest remaining seed, Dallas would face the lowest remaining seed. I feel great about ALL of those matchups and our defense, which has been horrible all year has actually played well the last month (including the KC game)

Only team I would have some reservations about playing would be GB but that would still be a home game for us so yes please get the bye

 

[Georgiamuscle]

I think we would be better off forcing Dak to check down. Dez and Terrance downfield would be a problem

Take the big plays away and you beat Dallas

 

[AVXL]

It's no secret that the Cowboys with Dak don't go down the field as much with Dak as they did with Romo. That's not a diss breh. Your team makes fewer mistakes and is more ball control. But Dak is still a rookie and he's struggled somewhat down the stretch. I think playing a rookie QB in the playoffs would be in our advantage

 

[The_Sheff]

Man fukk the cowboys, I'm worried about the Packers and Giants.

 

[Steezy]

Ima be at the game lower level 128

Might can make a move afterwards if we get a good head count @AVXL

 

[Atlrocafella]

so funny to see the media start to talk about us as a threat now. Kind of wish they didn't and let us continue to fly under the radar like they have all season.
