WOOOOO! Go Falcons! Impressive 30 point victory. The Falcons ran for 320+ yards (4th most in a playoff game)!! Vick threw well when he had to, and had 2 passing TDs. The rushing game clicked on ALL cylinders! And I thought the special teams would play a part in this.

Kid, was that the impressed run defense you were telling me about .

Naw, I'm just kidding. You handled the week with class. You respected your opposition while wanting your team to win. Hopefully it turns out better next year (though not at the expense of my club ).

As for all the haters:

Shame about the Jets though... however, they do like to live on the edge and it got them on the ass this time.

yeah the 2 TD passes is what impressed me the most. He can throw when he has to. All the low passing stats gave me a bad impression of him. He has a decent arm. Too bad Peerless Price hasn't come around like they hoped (though I believe he got a td pass yesterday)

I must say that I was surprised by the Atlanta game and the Jets should have won. What does that say about Pittsburgh. They're lucky. But Atlanta? Are they for real?

I had my doubts about Atlanta all year, but I do think they are for real now.

Watch for them to beat the Eagles or Vikings. I really don't think they'll have too much trouble accomplishing that.

That game shows that the Rams weren't. Atlanta will crumble if it has to face a good team, but it won't face a good team until the Superbowl.

Eagles?

That was an awful rushing defense.

The Rams stuffed the Seattle running game which is pretty good. You have to give it all to the Atlanta. They should beat Philly or Minnesota.

Sadly, the Rams had 8 or 9 defenders in the box and we still couldn't stop Atlanta. That's kind of scary.

Yep, John... I have the same reaction. The Falcons had a great year. Dominated a really hot team which a lot of people were saying were going to beat the Falcons and NOW, people are saying they really weren't a good team and so the Falcons haven't beat anyone yet.

Yeah, that also led to some big plays, because once Atlanta RBs got past the initial line of defenders, there was open space.

McNabb is looking sharp. And I notice that a lot of the passes are going to Westbrook and Mitchell. I wonder how many passes will go Pinkston's way .

And there was open spaces at the line because there were no defenders assigned to the gap or the assigned defenders were not at their assignment. I think it was the bootlegs that ****ed us up. And Marmie obviously sucks bad as a defensive coordinator. We have to devote much more to defense.

First Blood... Eagles... on a pass to Mitchell.

One of the major problems (IMO) is that Archuletta (who I usually like) blew assignments or took crap persuit angles. He didn't play well at all and his position has to play well to stop the running game.

Vikings aren't looking so good, so far.

Yeah. That's wierd. He hasn't played well most of the year. The LBs are so bad though that maybe it's because he had to cover for them.

If the colts lose today or next week, then I think I'm pulling for the falcons, even though I find Mora to be an *******.

Shut those AFL mother****ers up!
