It is always fun to FIRST !!!!..As predicted the center of our defense is soft and vulnerable. Our OL is really struggling. Yes we are lucky to be 6-0 and I hope we can continue. However, we must become better at stopping the run and more aggressive in our pursuit of the opposing QB. I do belive M Turner has lost a step and J Rodgers is not-Warrick Dunn. Eagles prediction 24-21 ..Angry Birds…RISE UP

Every single day, EVERY single day, I see some article from the AJC about how Atlanta doesn’t deserve its undefeated record. You know what, THEY scored more points than their opponents, that’s all that matters in the NFL. We aren’t looking to break the Dolphins records here, I think I speak for all of the fans, and all the players when I say, we have ONE goal, the Superbowl. The fact is, Atlanta is closer to the homefield in the playoffs than Anybody else. Keep it up Falcons! I don’t care how you win, and please beat that Joke of a QB up in Philly!

RUN THE BALL!!!!! Turner started off strong then we absolutely forgot about him. He has always been a guy that needs 20+ carries to be effective because he wears down defenses. Start Mike Pete at Mlb!!Daunte has been quite the surprise this season. Our safeties are unbelievable and have saved touchdown after touchdown as the opposing runnin backs have embarassed our front 7. THANK GOD FOR #55. To think I was advocatin lettin him go this offseason(monetary reasons). He is playing like he wants a ring AND a bust in canton. 20 more sacks and hes a lock

It is obvious that it is a slow Falcons news story week since the Falcons have a bye week. So, now is the time that all of the stories will be surfacing about how the team has not earned the 6 and 0 record…..e.g., it’s just luck….haven’t played a team with a winning record, etc……

In the big scheme of things…..DOES IT REALLY MATTER HOW THEY WIN?…..BUT THAT THEY DO WIN THE GAMES!!!!!! GO FALCONS!!!!!

The Falcons are 6-0 and the national media is blasting them for not destroying every opponent. ABSURD! People keep talking about the playoffs but the team can’t do anything about that until they get there. As of right now, THEY LOOK LIKE AN ABSOLUTE LOCK to make it. As a long suffering fan of this team, I’ve seen many years that these games where they are squeaking by with a victory, ended with a loss. THAT’s THE DIFFERENCE PEOPLE!!! They are actually winning them this year. Only some transplanted newcomer to town would knock a 6-0 record. You really can’t please those people anyway because of their alligence to THEIR home team. WHICH BY THE WAY IS NOT 6-0. So all of you displaced Katrina victims, New England migraters, and rust belt runaways can GO TO HELL…or at least back to that place that was so great that YOU HAD TO LEAVE. GO FALCONS!!!!!

I’m glad the Falcons have looked bad over the last three games..

I can ssure you Smitty and everyone in Flowery Branch aren’t patting themselves on the back. They are working even harder to improve our rushing attack, pass blocking, run stop and tackling skills before we go into a tough 4 game stretch..

We may still be learning but I ‘d rather be 6-0 learning and developing than 3-3 learning and developing..

Bopro … you gotta quit getting so emotional. I don’t hate the Falcons, but I have my head on right about the fact that they could easily be 4-2 versus 6-0. I have followed them for a long long time and want them to win more than ever, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to turn into a blind man. They are not anything to get too excited about, because they can easily be man handled like they were in the playoffs last year and against GB the year before. They definitely seem to be better coached on O & D, but that is not going to make up for the fact that Ryan lacks as a dominating QB. Great under pressure of 4th quarter, but average until then.

Hey Y’all:

6-0 is great !! The “PROCESS” is continuing. Yes, we have some things to “FIX” on offense and defense. We have been playing together in “ONE HEARTBEAT!” as we are getting through these wins. However, the “FIXES” have to come quick for we are moving into some “FUN” and “COMPETITIVE” games in the second half of the seasons. Our offensive line have to tighten things up in the running game. They could not move the defensive line of the Raiders 2 inches at the goal line to get a touchdown. Remember, these are the same linemen from” last year” who had difficulty in moving inches against other teams in the leauge that we played last year. No offense, but they have to get better in moving defensive linemen in order to make holes. If they can’t do it, let the “ROOKIES” that we drafted get a chance to see what they can do. PUT THEM IN THE FIRE TO GET BATTLE TESTED!!! We are coming down to aggressive defensive teams like the Giants, who destroyed our line last year. We will see them again, and other defensive front four like them. What changes have we made on the offensive line to beat these guys as compared to last year. They are in our way towards the Super Bowl. We better be ready to defeat them. Will our new offensive schem work to do it? I do not think so. The line currently are not busting holes for Turner or the other running backs in this offensive line blocking scheme. I believe it’s the personnel. And if we are going to continue winning and getting to the Super Bowl, if they do not play better against better defensive fronts against the run and pass, then they need to be changed.

Our defensive interior needs to get more NASTY. They appear to not have the ability to shed blockers, on a consistant basis, and as a team, in getting to the running backs and the quarterback. WE NEED SOME BIG, IMMOVABLE, MOBILE OBJECTS IN THERE TACKLING RUNNERS IN THE BACKFIELD AND SACKING QUARTERBACKS. I am more than confident this will get fixed in some manner, with the addition of Corey Peter, but he will need help from the rest of the guys up there. ITS TIME TO GET DURTY AND NASTY FELLAS. THE SUPPR BOWL RUN STARTS WHEN YOU GET OUT OF THIS “BYE” WEEK. Get ready in “ONE HEARTBEAT!!!!”. I HEAR YOU GUYS COMING. “THUMP!!! YOU’RE GETTING LOUDER!!! THUMP… THUMP!!!! ……..!!!!. LET’S DO THIS!!!!

GO FALCONS!!!!!!

THE “PROCESS” CONTINUES TO THE SUPER BOWL.

“FALCONS, RISE UP!!! WE “RISE UP!!” IN “ONE HEARTBEAT!!!”

SSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
This is a SECRET from a FALCON FAN!!! TELL EVERYBODY!!!!!!!

……………………………”ONE HEARTBEAT, BABY!!!…………………..

True fans will tell their team the truth. That Coach Smith and others are saying what we already know is a start.. Geting the best out of the players we have is a moving in the right direction but until we start fixing the glaring problems our team has, we will never get any further than one and done in the playoffs. I agree with Arthur Blank when he says making it to the playoffs is not good enough.

Not a Turner hater. He’s my fantasy back and I own an authentic Turner jersey.

With that said I’m THRILLED we’re winning via the pass. On our offense alone Turner would be the #5 threat (behind Ryan, Roddy, TG, and Julio). SO WHY FORCE the offense thru him?!!! Like GB, he should consider himself a complimentary piece, execute when called on (vs tiptoeing), and shut up/play ball.

A true leader will accept the role -Especially when we’re winning with it- and be a professional doing it.

No, Dwayne’s right. We could all have oozing ingrown hairs on our inner thighs. Dwayne, thank you for that bit of wisdom and let it serve as a reminder to us that you are clearly a huge nutbag who has slipped off his meds.

Back on point, I like that we squeaked out a win against an inferior opponent going into the bye week. The players are fully aware that they could easily have lost this game and will be focused on Philly, who you know is desperate right now. Definitely better than them blowing the Raiders out and going into the break thinking they’ve got this thing in the bag.

So the Falcons are fortunate to be 6 – 0 going into the bye week. Does that mean when the Falcons may have been 5 – 0 or 3 – 3 going into a bye week that it was unfortunate? Who said all wins must come pretty; if they do then it’s said that they are playing sub par teams. The name of the game is to win and it really do not matter if they blow teams out or that wins are close. A win is a win, especially in professional sports. Again, the name of the game is to win, regardless how you do it. The alternative is a loosing record and I will take any team with this record…

NY lost 2 divisional games. yet some how only the Falcons have issues and can’t beat these teams. we’re not even playing as good as we can. 13 picks or something like that. i would much rather give up some rushing yards compared to BVG 3rd and 21s that were converted last year.

Can we review the last two weeks of weakness? Redskins at home off a 10 day rest. 10 days versus 7 days makes a difference. Being at home makes a difference. Three advantages to Redskins: rest prep and homefield.
Oakland off the bye week. Two weeks of rest. Two weeks of prep. Home field to Atlanta.

Folks, that’s two teams back to back that have been better rested and more time to prepare. YET Atlanta WON.

The only real problem I see with Atlanta is Matty Ice coming in nervous/cold. I can’t tell if it’s just gameday jitters or him just being off. But Ryan’s performance improves through the game with his mistakes coming early on.
***************************************
It was so obvious the Raiders were on fresh legs. We play the Eagles coming off of their BYE as well, it will be a battle but I think we can win it. Hopefully their QB offers up some gifts disguised as turnovers. Later on we get the Cardinals coming off of their BYE.

A few years ago we were getting the NFC South games with all of them coming off their BYE week. I wrote Roger G. and told him the schedule had to be changed. I didn’t hear anything back but I did hear from his assistant when I wrote him about a certain QB and federal charges.

The bad news is that the Falcons have some flaws and will lose a few games this year (I’d say 3-4). The good news is that they’ll win their division almost by default and that other teams have flaws as well. I don’t see a dominant team this year. Stopping the run is a concern and a mystery, given they have some good DTs. Getting Coer Peters back will help. As far as pass defense, well, you see .

I agree with several of you, particularly Bopro. End the negativity. This ain’t 1998 and I wish the stupid media would stop calling the Falcons the “Dirty Birds” that was fun 1998 with that team but is so lame now in 2012 and it just feeds fodder to the fans of our oponents. This is 2012 and I don’t see no Dirty Bird Dancing except as a joke. Enjoy the victories, since to make the playoffs you have to win 6 or 7 games that are decided by less than 7 points, after all there is parity in the NFL and on any given Sunday your team can look like a contender and even beat a real contender. In the end the team with the most W’s not L’s will be playing in January. I ‘ve had season tickets for over 20 years and enjoyed the small victories and suffered the crushing defeats, this year feels good and the Falcons Air Force is fun to watch. I am enjoying the defensive play, it’s not perfect but we are improved considerably, thank you Asante Samuel for the interception, thank you John Abraham for the pressure. On offense thank you Harry Douglas for staying focused and giving us a boost during the helmet deflection, thanks Matt Ryan and the whole offense though you struggled you got us to where Matt Bryant could win the game Sunday. Stay healthy, keep winning Falcons and let the whiners whine. Focus on the next game and win that one too, even if it’s by only 1 point, its a 60 minute game and a 16 game season to reach the playoffs. We still have our division (those games are always close) and NFC enemies to overcome; we want home field advantage and those 6 victories count. We don’t want to go to New York, San Fransico, Green Bay for the playoffs we want them or anyone else in our Dome, then the only other place we want to see is New Orleans as the NFC Champions. I know I’m dreaming but it sure would be nice and we can all hope for the best.

It’s a matter of focus and execution. Smitty needs to keep the team FOCUSED on the goal at hand and EXECUTE (wrap up and tackle, block the defenders and for God sake Turner stop running into an F’n pile in from of you). Get some well deserved rest during the bye and fix the issues during the week of preparation. This team is lacking talent in some key positions (DE, MLB, NT, RB) so our talent from the BVG error is only going to take us so far. I’m looking forward to Nolan drafting his kind of defensive players as he did in SF, Denver and Miami.

Opinion from Canada, and a fan of the Falcons since 1998. Every year since Matt Ryan and Mike Smith entered the picture the results have always been the same. Win the close games. I remember the field goal to beat the bears with 4 seconds left, and to stop Cutler 4th down on the falcons 5 yard line. This team is built around close wins, with all stars like bryant with a 55 yarder, Ryan with a 60 yard completion to White, and yes even turner bumbling in for a touchdown late in the game against Washington. And Spoons hit on RGIII? Yeah it was that good.

Here’s some positivity, once these all star players like Samuel Robinson Turner Jones Ryan Bryant, all get on the same page and step up together in every game, cause the talents there. I don’t see a team better then this squad in the NFL. Pats have a chance with all their talent, but they are all rookies, Atlanta isn’t anymore. Congrats on the first third of the season boys, keep up the good work.

“The Falcons have a lot of work to do.. They are good.. but if we go up against the Giants right now.. we are going to get blown out of the park!”
I certainly concur with this observation and have stated so on another thread about the Falcons win against the Raiders. On the other hand, the guy that thinks we will end up 9-7 is also WAY off base! Our remaining schedule is not all that tough, either. and we have 5 more home games to play as well! We’ve got the Aint’s twice, Tampa Bay twice and all the tough teams we play at home! We will make the playoffs. How far we go depends on stopping the run and our ability to start running the ball ourselves. Our play against the Eagles will be an eye opener as to whether we can adjust and improve or possibly tank and collapse! The Eagles are desperate and playing at home and coming off a bye week, too! However, if we can protect Ryan and he doesn’t keep regressing to being just an average quarterback we should score some points and be there at the end to win. Frankly, other than the Giants, I don’t see ANY team in today’s NFL that doesn’t have some serious flaws either on offense or defense! They can all be beaten. At 6-0 if we go 5-5 the rest of the way, that should be more than enough to win this division and get us a first round home game. What say you???

Run the ball, run the ball…. That’s all I read now when it comes to the Falcons. Last year it was pass the ball, pass the ball… let Ryan go deep. Make up your minds up people. What good does it do if Turner runs for 2 yards up the middle every down and then we punt. I love the way we have played. Seems the Falcons are letting the game dictate how they run their offense not redundant play calling that ends up with a 4th down punt. Keep the wins coming Dirty Birds, and to all you whinny fans complaining about how your team got to 6-0…don’t ruin it for the rest of us who are relishing in the moment.

Ideally you run to set up play action but you can’t consistently run 1st and 2nd down and gain only 2 yards and put Matt in a position where he has long yardage and the rush is coming. O-Line has got to become nastier and open up some wholes. Doesn’t help, that our RB is slow to get to the line and isn’t good at creating something if nothing is there.

Yep, found it.

“The Past”
BY RALPH WALDO EMERSON
The debt is paid,
The verdict said,
The Furies laid,
The plague is stayed,
All fortunes made;
Turn the key and bolt the door,
Sweet is death forevermore.
Nor haughty hope, nor swart chagrin,
Nor murdering hate, can enter in.
All is now secure and fast;
Not the gods can shake the Past;
Flies-to the adamantine door
Bolted down forevermore.
None can re-enter there,—
No thief so politic,
No Satan with a royal trick
Steal in by window, chink, or hole,
To bind or unbind, add what lacked,
Insert a leaf, or forge a name,

The games have to be played to see wo wins. But I also think the Falcons have regressed the past two weeks. A running back can’t run if there is and offensive lineman in the place where there should
be a hole. This happens a lot with the birds. Same thing for theD-line. If they get blown out the lb’s or
db’s have to make the tackle way down the field. They cant fill a gap if the o-line has blown out the d-
line and is then blocking them. The Falcons need to get it together. No excuses. Block and tackle
and you will be suprised at the results.

The Falcons, Braves, Hawks, Dream, Jackets, Dawgs all have the same deal…good in the regular season, fizzle out in the playoffs or bowl games….its a GA thing….don’t like it, but it is what it is!

That being said, SOMEONE has to reverse the curse….I’m looking for the Falcons to start it off. To me the Falcons have 4 Benchmark games this season (Broncos, Eagles, Saints (H), Giants). Those games will tell you a lot about where this team is heading to the playoffs. They’ve won one, let’s get it done!

I agree with the article’s premise. The Falcons are “Very Fortunate” to 6-0 right now and that’s because the seasoned NFL fan and sports columnists all see what has happened to the Falcons. They don’t have to worry about having to have been buried before they could even consider posturing for a playoff seed. Meaning, if they were at .500 or less, given the way they are playing-they wouldn’t make the playoffs. I’ve seen these types of wins before when the Falcons went 13-3 and got plastered by the emerging Green Bay Packers-who went on to win the Super bowl. Some fans think that bloggers are being negative-about the Falcons. No, I don’t think it is negative and that’s why the title of this blog post indicates this. Just look at the Falcons upcoming opponents at the quarter mark in this regular season: They’ve got Philly, which is going to set the tone for the remaining games.
• Dallas
• New Orleans
• Arizona
• Tampa Bay
• New Orleans
• Carolina
• New York
• Detroit
• Tampa Bay

In the next 6 games the Falcon play the Saints twice. I understand Smitty giving his team a full week off, and it looks like they are in a good space as having the luxury of time to get this team to become more consistent and dominate in areas and corrects mistakes and not a lot of teams have that luxury of time to do these things at 6-0. I would say lemme me see where you’re at in the next 4 to 5 games. That will determine who will get to be at the ball (dance). Once you’ve made it to the ball (dance)-Now you have to rely on what got you there in the first place. The Falcons can keep winning by chance and circumstance, but that kind of play will only get you a ticket to the dance. Once in the playoffs, however-if the “Dirty Birds” keep playing like they’re playing, they’ll get their (dance) ticket punched-no pun intended.

The true record of the Falcon’s opponents is 11 and 21. That’s only a .333 % winning average. We haven’t played anyone who be placed in the top tier of teams. We can’t get any respect until we play and beat a top tier team. We don’t play anyone with a winning record until 11/18 when we play Arizona. It’s not the Falcon’s fault that the schedule is skewed this way but the facts are the facts. We haven’t played or beaten anyone with a pedigree or a winning record yet, and we haven’t beaten teams we should have as decisively as a 6-0 team should.

***************************************************
I don’t argue your assessment but I will argue your math. The total combined wins of the teams the Falcons have played is 12. The total combined losses of these teams is 22. Take out the losses to the Falcons and their combined record is 12-17. It doesn’t make sense to count the Falcons own victories over these teams in figuring a w-l percentage. .414%, not .333% which is wrong anyway. Using your figures that number would be .344%.

Falcons have won but not because of Ryan. Get rid of Ryan and our game will improve. Ryan still looks like he should be playing in the high school league. We have so many good players and the one player that gets the credit for winning is the worst player on the team. He should not be getting the credit for the wins, he should not be the person interviewed at the end of each game. He should not be a team captain.

Didn’t you say “you are what your record is”? Isn’t 0-3 their record in the playoffs? Perhaps you only want that quote to reflect the positive records? If you do that, then you can’t use that quote because 0-3 is their playoff record.

Well, it’s obvious, even to the most casual observer, that LKW4 is either a racist, blind, dumb, stupid or all 4! Ryan is a top notch NFL quarterback, not so much because of his arm, which is plenty strong and good, but because he knows how to manage a football game, and generally doesn’t throw the ball up for grabs or force passes into double coverage! But without a running game he’s going to be limited in what he can do with the passing talent the team possesses. I suspect the Falcons are going to work on that with their bye week….and come out running the ball against the Eagles. They need to utilize the screen pass better, too! The Eagles are flawed, but so are we. It will be interesting to see who exploits the other teams flaws the most!

Here’s what is good about being 6-0 at this point. The Falcons only have to play .500 football the rest of the season and still most likely get home field advantage through out the playoffs. I’ll take 11-5 any year. However, and I know on any giving Sunday, according to the schedule, who believes the Falcons will finish the year at.500. I see 2-3 defeats from here on out. One to the aints, one to Tampa Bay, and maybe the Giants.
************************************************
Barring injuries I don’t see us losing to the Caints. Sure, they can put some points on the board but they can’t stop anybody, ground or air assault. Tampa………..? I dunno, the NFC South Rivalry games are always tough, I don’t like to look ahead but I haven’t looked at Tampa’s stats yet this year and I see their main claim to fame is stopping the run…..3rd in Run Defense. At home they aren’t selling out. Josh Freeman has an 84.2 passer rating. Their sack leader is Michael Bennett with 4. Their FG kicker, Connor Barth, is very accurate even from long range 3-4 from 50 plus. And in the who cares dept punter Michael Koenen is averaging 5 yards more in an outdoor stadium. You’ll remember him from his Falcon days, the Falcons franchise tag player in 09′. The Caints have immortalized Koenen in granite at the Mercedez-Benz Dome, don’t have a clue why they would worship a punter, what a waste of good granite. You might recall Steve Gleason, the other subject of the statue collaborated with filmmaker Sean Pamphilon to document his life with ALS. This included a clip of a Saints locker room talk by Gregg Williams which exhorted his players to injure opposing players. That tape became public shortly after Williams had been suspended for his role in Bountygate. Gleason criticized Pamphilon after the tape became public, saying that the filmmaker did not have rights to release the tape. Obviously Pamphilon did the right thing.

I’ve followed the Falcons since they first drafter Tommy Nobis. Now that was a hard nosed nut cracker. The Falcons today do not play the same football as then. Then you saw nobody parade around the field after making a tackle. Maybe a hand shake be a teammate but that was it. The biggest thing then was the team. Now it’s all about the individual. What team?

But the thing now is football has changed so that they now have a 6—-0 record. How I don’t know, but so far each game has ended with the Falcons ahead. So that means they’re winning. The problem I see with the team now is they don’t play as a team. Now some try to but the others are so bound by ” look at me and see what I can do”. Till that attitude is overcome you will see the birds squeak by but probably still win. The great teams play team football. Just wait till the birds learn that and you’ll see just how good they can be.

30 Minute Shepherd’s Pie – Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray

Ingredients
2 pounds potatoes, such as russet, peeled and cubed
2 tablespoons sour cream or softened cream cheese
1 large egg yolk
1/2 cup cream, for a lighter version substitute vegetable or chicken broth
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
1 3/4 pounds ground beef or ground lamb
1 carrot, peeled and chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup beef stock or broth
2 teaspoons Worcestershire, eyeball it
1/2 cup frozen peas, a couple of handfuls
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
Directions
Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, about 12 minutes. Drain potatoes and pour them into a bowl. Combine sour cream, egg yolk and cream. Add the cream mixture into potatoes and mash until potatoes are almost smooth.

While potatoes boil, preheat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil to hot pan with beef or lamb. Season meat with salt and pepper. Brown and crumble meat for 3 or 4 minutes. If you are using lamb and the pan is fatty, spoon away some of the drippings. Add chopped carrot and onion to the meat. Cook veggies with meat 5 minutes, stirring frequently. In a second small skillet over medium heat cook butter and flour together 2 minutes. Whisk in broth and Worcestershire sauce. Thicken gravy 1 minute. Add gravy to meat and vegetables. Stir in peas.

Preheat broiler to high. Fill a small rectangular casserole with meat and vegetable mixture. Spoon potatoes over meat evenly. Top potatoes with paprika and broil 6 to 8 inches from the heat until potatoes are evenly browned. Top casserole dish with chopped parsley and serve.

Eat.
