The Falcons are well coached and are very mature in their attitudes towards finishing the game. They look like a team (New England comes to mind) that has a very business-like attitude and that knows that this game was a small piece of the puzzle in a long and enduring season.

All in all a very good game today. We did what we needed to do to win. We limited the big plays (you won’t stop all of them from the Saints), we kept Bree’s off the field, and we took care of the football. Glad to see another Falcons-Saints game go down to the wire. Undoubtedly one of the best rivalries in the NFL. Now we are even with the Saints in the Superdome! 45-37 Falcons all time.

You can’t deny that the Saints let the Falcons back into the game in overtime, but regardless, going on the road and beating the defending champs is impressive in any context.

All due respect and congratulations to Mike Vick, but I’d rather talk about the guy that led us to victory vs. the defending Super Bowl champions today; Matt Ryan is establishing himself, ladies and gentlemen. It’s time to start recognizing that.

Gotta love Matty Ice and the way he played today, without question; he controlled the game, controlled the team, and apparently lit a fire under some tail feathers before that last drive in a manner that I don’t think even he would’ve expected before the game. I’m not going to talk about 13-15 wins, but I WILL say this; Atlanta’s the best team in this division, and we’ll be a factor in January.

Who Dat Brees? It’s the Falcons, that who dat is. Time to change your chant aints fans. Ya’ll stole it from the Bengals anyway.

Truth – time and time again you make posts that you obviously have no knowledge what you’re talking about…case in point, the excerpt above. New Orleans fans have been using the Who Dat chant as far back as I can remember which is somewhere in the early ’70s. It was the Bengals who began copying the Saints by starting a “Who Dey” chant.

You recently posted that Michael Vick hasn’t played “anybody” yet and alluded to the fact that he wouldn’t perform well against a “good” team. How short is your memory? He nearly led his team to victory after entering the game for an injured Kevin Kolb against Green Bay. I would say that GB is an upper echelon team.

So if you want to continue blogging and spitting off at the mouth with untrue statements then why not consider changing your name from Truth to False!!

Garrard, who was benched last week after throwing four interceptions against the Chargers, was even worse against Philadelphia. Yes, worse. Although Garrard threw just one interception, he tossed up at least four more balls that could have been picked.

Garrard finished 13 of 30 for 105 yards and was sacked six times. Defensive ends Brandon Graham and Trent Cole abused Jaguars offensive tackles Eugene Monroe and Eben Britton early and often, getting the kind of steady pressure that gives Garrard trouble.

Garrard finished with a passer rating of 39.

How did Michael Vick “steal Atlanta’s spotlight,” Marshall? I’m not sure I understand that one.

He played a very good game against a team that won’t be in the playoffs. Matt Ryan played a very good game on the road against the New Orleans Saints. I’d say that’s pretty much an advantage: Falcons scenario, wouldn’t you?

I wish Vick all the best and hope he finds true redemption in Philly, and that’s coming from someone that pretty much hates all things Philadelphia except for cheese steak, Rocky, and Always Sunny. But saying that he “stole the spotlight” by beating the Jacksonville Jaguars is a little much, don’t you think?

Well, I won’t disagree with that, Marshall. The Vick story IS a better story. He’s coming back from a lot of poor decisions that he’d made in his first run as a franchise player, and deserves every amount of adulation he can receive so long as he stays on the right path. I hope he does well in his run with Philly or wherever else his roads lead.

That said, I don’t miss the guy. I wish him well, but Matt Ryan’s our guy now, and he’s done a good job this season in proving himself to be a franchise quarterback in his own right.

It’s hard for a lot of people (in Atlanta especially) to understand how the Vick story could be more intriguing than the Falcons over the Saints. You guys didn’t have a problem when he was the lead story when he was running circles around the league as a Falcon. The guy is an extraordinary talent and that’s what interests viewers as far as TV/Media is concerned. And, the fact that he is doing it after hitting rock bottom makes it all the more intriguing no matter what team he is playing against.

Just think about where our franchise was three years ago, with Bobby Petrino and Mike Vick dominating the headlines here in Atlanta. Ryan was our first pick in the draft that offseason, and we brought in a relatively unknown head coach candidate in Mike Smith, and since then we’ve made the playoffs and gone 9-7 in the two full seasons. Today, we’re 2-1 after beating the Saints on the road, and our only loss was a road loss that we could’ve won against a team that’s gone undefeated thus far in 2010.

Three years ago, we thought our franchise was set back another five seasons from the embarrassments that both Vick and Petrino had given us. Falcons fans — and Falcons haters — need to remember and recognize that tonight. We were going NOWHERE. Now there’s a real spark in the city with this franchise, and Ryan and Coach Smith have been a big part of all that.

Atlanta fans aren’t going to give the guy credit because his actions essentially left this franchise and this city in the cold, Marshall; who goes from being the face of professional football to doing some of the stuff he was doing behind the scenes? I’m not trying to slam him by saying that, because the past is the past and — you’re right — he has apparently turned things around, but there’s a reason the Atlanta fanbase doesn’t like the guy, and it has nothing to do with anything other than the fact that he played a major part in destroying that which he’d helped build.

Mike Vick is an extraordinary talent; in truth, there’s never been another quarterback like him, with the possible exception of Randall Cunningham in his early days, when it comes to a combination of his legs plus his arm. But he did it to himself with Falcons fans, and you can’t blame the majority of us for turning our back on him after all that we’d trusted him with.

He can have credit in Philly and everywhere else, but I doubt you posting on here about Vicks “accomplishments” on one of the worst defenses in the NFL will get Falcons’ fans to bow down kiss his felon rear end. He’s still a felon, he still the entire Falcon fan base down, and let down his teammates. He can act like a QB all he wants, but he’ll NEVER be a leader and to be a true QB you need to be a leader.

1. I saw Matt Ryan attempt a pass downfield. That was almost scary because it was the very bomb pass attempt that I’ve seen. (He might have tried one last week, but I was on vacation in the Bahamas. And it WAS the Cardinals, right?) But this was the first pass that I saw.

2. I saw Mike Smith go for it… twice… on 4th and short. Those plays changed the entire complexion of the game, IMO. The offense fed off that.

3. I saw a team with absolutely NO ANSWER for Tony Gonzalez. We all knew where the passes were going to go, but they STILL couldn’t do anything about it. That was quite amazing, as well.

4. I saw Matt Ryan tearing INTO some player that must have missed an assignment or something. That showed me that he was really vocal in his leadership. He even had a swagger. And those scrambles really showed some guts.

5. I saw Drew Brees making terrible decisions. That’s not something you see everyday. And I have always liked Brent Grimes. He’s small, but he’s tough.

I think that this game could be a signature game for the season. I just hope that the Falcons see this as a good win, but a win of only one game; because we were a chip shot away from losing that game.

i was greatly impressed with Matt today. i am a huge critic of his game, heck he’s our QB.. but today he managed the game well. took what the d gave him.. 3 yrds here in there by either feet or check downs. he didnt (force) what wasnt there. did not put up gaudy numbers but truthfully i dont think thats his game. he’s a guy that u can win with in a balanced system.. dont expect too much from him statistically; crowning him the next Peyton or this or that.. he has the skill to make all throws, just hope he makes the reads and makes the smart throw. after hearing so much about how smart he was at times he proves the opposite. today that wasnt the case. i loved his moxie.. his leadership.. and aggressiveness.. where at times i question his guts.

Oh please stop it with the “Vick vs. Ryan” stuff. Vick isn’t here. He’s doing quite well in Philly. Matt Ryan is here. Even though he hasn’t won a playoff game yet, he just might this year.

But Matt Ryan’s game is very different from Mike Vick’s. Vick is big-play, Matt Ryan is controlled and methodical. The trick is the system. Mike Vick has to win every game in Philly in order for Philly to win, Matt Ryan just have to be smart and make good decisions and accurate passes. And they have identical records.

Right now, Philly needs the superstar. A superstar will mess up the Falcons system. So I don’t think that Vick will play as good here than what he is playing right now for the Eagles.

(But 3 TDs and 1 Rushing TD, which equates for all scores, looks really sweet on a Falcons box score… especially with almost 300 yards passing!)

Everyone’s saying that the Saints kicker lost the game for them. But the saints defense should’ve held the falcons. They didn’t, The falcons won because they ran the ball and the saints defense got tired. Good teams win with muscle and hustle. They falcons did that today.

the Saints needed this loss to bring them back down to earth. Drew Brees and Sean Peyton spent too much time writing books and doing interviews and commercials.

It was a short week for the Saints and they got the tough Falcons. Even with the mistakes the Saints made, it still took everything the Falcons had, plus a Saints missed FG, for the Falcons to knock off the Defending Super Bowl champs.

The funny thing about this though is that we’ve just made the Falcons season while getting our season on track.

The Saints will be fine and the Falcons will be the Falcons which is inconsistent.

wow, happy the falcons won but let’s get some perspective on the win.

1) Luckiest win since 1998 NFC championship. NFL kickers miss that kick maybe twice out of 100 times. But sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good.
2) The defense could not stop the Saints passing. Brees had 365 yards passing and was not pressured often. Only the Saints stopped the Saints with turnovers.
3) The O-line is still having problems protecting Ryan.

Said that, the Falcons now have their two toughest road games out of the way and sit 2-1, where most everyone thought they would be. The schedule lines up very well and the Falcons SHOULD go 5-2 at home at worst and go at least 4-2 on the road, if not 5-1, with Philly being the only real road test left. The home sked is much tougher with BAL, NO, and GB left. 12-4 is achievable and 10 wins is probable barring any catastrophic injuries to Ryan.

Division title? Probably not, Saint’s schedule is weak too, only potential losses are PIT, at DAL, at BAL, and at ATL, but with some help the division could be for the taking when Saints come to the dome.

As I have always mentioned before, no disrespect but the Saints are a team not built for three or four more years. I read from someone on ESPN comments that Saints are like the Patriots (wrong!)
The falcons are building a dynasty like the Patriots did. It will be a gradual climb but I am very confident we will see the Falcons in he Superbowl within the next few years. (and not for just one year like in 98) There are two big differences Blank and Benson. Benson is somewhat of a budget owner, Blank is willing to spend whatever within the constraints of the NFL to win a championship and we will get there. This game was for one thing and only one thing only, last year was last year (Saints). To make a statement to Brees and company get used to second place in the division from now on. ( Barring Injuries) Brees is one big hit away from retirement Saints Fans.

Great game. The kids and Robinson are adding a LOT of energy on defense; I still say two years from now this team will be a defensive powerhouse. Hailing from Missouri, it’s great to see Moore and Weatherspoon play tough and play well, and Gonzalez showed everyone why he’s a Hall of Famer.

I thought Smith would pull the plug on Turner in favor of Snelling, but after Snelling came in Turner started hitting the holes with some authority. I like those two splitting the load and keeping each other fresh.

Great game, HVE TO CLEAN Up special teams, especially kick returns. Ari took one to the house that got called back on a questionable hold & N.O. almost took a punt & KR to the house today! But great game. D. Robinson showed why we went & got him, think about it, how often did you hear the man he was defendings name called? Mike Peterson played well & Matt steped it up BIGTIME!!! This was real growth game for him. Like the rest of the Offense, ESPN had a great point saying Ryan struggled mightily in the season-opening loss to Pittsburgh. But the quarterback has been exceptionally sharp in wins over Arizona and New Orleans. The biggest difference has been on third downs. In the Pittsburgh game, Ryan was 4-for-11 on third-down pass attempts and averaged 4.2 yards per attempt with a 49.8 passer rating. In the past two weeks, Ryan has completed 18 of 22 passes on third downs, averaged 10.5 yards per attempt, thrown four touchdowns with no interceptions and compiled a 150.2 passer rating.
That’s the Matt we need to get to where we wanna be! Great game guys now on to S.F. no slip ups bc they’re pissed their 0-3 & will be looking to get off the snid & their capable, look they should have beat N.O. last week!
