Atlanta Falcons: Curtis Lofton says Saints don’t consider Falcons rivals
By Michael Cunningham
FLOWERY BRANCH—To get a taste of the disdain the Falcons feel for the Saints, just mention the fact that New Orleans has won 11 of the last 13 games in the series including a 31-27 victory on Nov. 11.
“We got tired of hearing about it,” Falcons running back Michael Turner said today.
Asked if the Saints and Atlanta’s rivals, Turner said: “I think there is no question about that. You can see the difference in intensity when we play them.”
But, to hear Saints linebacker Curtis Lofton tell it, the seething isn’t as strong on the other side.
Lofton signed with the Saints as a free agent last offseason after playing four seasons with the Falcons. He said he’s noticed a difference in how the Saints perceive the Falcons as opposed to the other way around.
“Being here in this program, I feel like they see it as a divisional game, not a rivalry game,” Lofton said.
The Saints’ dismissal of the Falcons as a worthy rival is the latest chapter in a long history of trash talk between the NFC South foes. The insults boiled over before and after the last game.
The Saints alleged that Falcons players Sean Weatherspoon and Joanthan Babineaux walked through their pregame warmup talking trash to Lofton and continued to do so during the game. Lofton said Tuesday that the pregame incident was a “fact.”
Saints linebacker Scott Shanle called Atlanta’s pregame antics “classless.” In the days after the game, Falcons wide receiver Roddy White said the trash talk directed at Lofton was playful but Lofton didn’t seem to take it that way.
“For me, personally, I prefer to go out and do my job and keep my mouth shut and let my actions speak for me instead of words,” Lofton said Tuesday. “Some guys love to yap back and forth. It just depends the type person you are.”
White further angered the Saints with his postgame comments.
“It’s not like they came out here and won a game,” White said. “I think we kind of gave it to them.”
Shanle told Yahoo Sports that the Saints “still own” the Falcons said they are their “little brothers.”
“I think part of your job as a professional is to take a loss and give the other team the credit.” Lofton said Tuesday. “You don’t just say, ‘We gave them a win.’”
White declined to speak to reporters when approached in the locker room on Tuesday.

Curtis Lofton is the only player on either side to spout that nonsense. Other players on both sides have talked about this being a rivalry. So perhaps he is just clueless.

Here’s something for you to ponder: four straight losses to the team from the Crescent City. Five of the last six in Atcan’ta house.
Your team loses again on Thursday:

Is this an example of Lofton just doing his job and keeping his mouth shut?? Maybe he wishes he was back in Atlanta, but as I recall, the Falcons didn’t want to keep him too badly.

How in the Hell with Lofton only being removed from the team a year all of a sudden its not a rivalry. He was hating them when he was with us. Sounds to me he’s just mad because we didn’t want him any longer and we’re 10-1 and they’re 5-6. How is that better team/fans working for you Curtis???? down in the BIG SLEAZZY!!!!!!!

Seen, you being here is ok, you’re constant portrayal of the aints being some sort of power house is quite laughable. Someone who foams at the mouth about particular stats without acknowledgment of their teams history is just ignorant. The last few “wonder” years of the aint’s is all that’s there…….before that ……….nothing. The Falcons were winning division titles and appearing in playoff games waaaaay before the aint’s. I mean, come on 1966 to 2000 without a playoff win….dude thats horrible. Face it, the last few years for the aint’s is just a flash in the pan……soon to be over. You my friend are the delusional one, for sure…..read some books on your sorry team’s history. The way you sound on these boards is quite embarrassing and stupid. Hope you didn’t throw your paper bag away……

Who cares what Blimpie thinks. He’s not old enough to remember the battle of the losers of years past. Now grant you, that might have changed since they became the Breeses. But just remember, nothing lasts forever. As Brees goes, so will the Taints! So enjoy him while you can because Chase Daniels d@mn sure isn’t going to win games the way Brees carries your team. LOL

Lofton was overrated indeed. Lots and lots of tackles….10 yards down field. No tackles for losses, no sacks, no picks, and couldn’t cover a turtle out of the backfield. And now those lofty abilities have truly come to light in one of the most aweful defenses in the history of the NFL.

I salute you Mr. Samuel playing with just 1 arm !! It seems Turner isn’t hitting the hole quick enough !! I wonder if he has slowed or just trying to set up blocks for a longer gain. He does know he’s not that type of back ? He’s been mixing it up with these teams for awhile his holes will close quicker than Rogers’ . His plays needs to hit the hole quicker ! He’s not getting a chance to get to the next level. He needs to except his role with this team & make the most of it. He runs like he’s trying to prove somebody wrong !! And maybe he is trying But this is the Falcons of the future or should I say the NFL of today !! We still need to be able to pound it when we need to. Get on broad Turner we need you !! RISE UP

Curtis is just trying to down play the hard feelings he has for the Falcons when they didn’t resign him. This is nothing but a rivalry!! During the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s before these teams started to win, it was known as the battle to avoid last place. Ask any BAGHEAD if this is a rivalry and they will tell you “YES” without a doubt!

Lofton was wanted here, We liked him. He was an outstanding MLB tackling wise, he was good calling the defense and he was in the right place. They were good against the run in large part because of Curtis Lofton.
In the new scheme that values the outside linebackers more highly he was not a 5 million dollar+ MLB. He’s not Patrick Willis.
Good player, very good, great teammate, not a difference maker. We couldn’t afford to pay him what he wanted so he moved on…

Curtis Lofton again in top ten in league for total tackles. But an extremely poor tackling team like the Falcons can’t use him? Makes sense.

I wasn’t the least bit sad to see Lofton leave and he has really shown his true colors. He’s a liability in coverage on the field and a baby off the field.

You are not consider a rival when you get your ass beat year after year by same team . Falcons should fire Coach Smith and a host of position players after this miserably season is finally over .

Bagheads will be bagheads! LOL at the Stains and their trash talk. We’ll see Thursday. Falcon fans, bring paper bags for your poor pitiful guests from LA to wear.

Yeah, the Falcons are classless. Top of the NFC, 10-1 as compared to 5-6, sure-fire playoff contestants. The Aints with under .500, coming off a bounty season, their entire defense + coaches getting suspended for paying for illegal hits, and probably won’t secure a wild card. Yeah, if anyone can talk about the Falcons being classless, it’s the Aints.

Sorry, WhoDat I think your thinking of Jeff George when he went to the Raiders and came back and won here in atlanta and did a childish victory lap. Don’t remeber one of the best QB’s we had doing that.

Wouldn’t be such poetic justice to win the NFC South against the defending division champions on our own field just two weeks after they caused our fist lose of the season..haha.

0-3, when? The last few playoff appearences I guess but we had playoff wins before that stretch, tell me how many playoff wins did the “Aints” have before that magical post-Katrina playoffs?

Dude Falcons are just getting lucky in every game they win. I mean in about every game this year it has been close game. Bet Falcons get killed in their first playoff game again!!!
