if they pulled him in the 2nd quarter, kept the ball on the ground for a bit while Cousin's found his groove, they would've won.

i don't know why shanahan isn't getting more heat for this.
 
^ Cause skins fans are just happy to not be some shitstain on the shoe of the league anymore.

Fuck Cousins, I'm talking about Rex Grossman III.

It's hard to blame Shanahan because you would've had to physically restrain Griffin in order to keep him sidelined. It's his fault as much as it is the coach's if he kept insisting he was capable of going out and making plays, especially if he was blatantly lying. Which was prbly the case. People call Griffin's attitude in that situation "toughness" but it's just plain selfishness.
 
it's a head coach's job to know his players better than that. RG was limping all over the place. it was only a matter of time before he blew out his knee. even i could see that. plus, that field was in horrible condition. shanahan should've pulled him, and not let some stupid fucking rookie tell him what to do.
 
^ agree, shanahan is the coach - it is 100% his call.
falcons are going to murderize the seachickens. if we don't, we'll be the laughing stock of the NFL.
you thought the redskins wound beat them and you got that wrong...

atlanta lost their last home game of the season to tampa bay who are considerably less of a challenge than seattle.

your d is going to have its hands full with wilson and, looking at the defenses you've faced this season, it's hard to see anybody who comes close to giving you this level of challenge. it's telling that the best ds you had to play all season were dallas in week 8 and denver in week 2.

i suppose we'll see on sunday. wilson is gonna streak his rookie drawers in our dome.

the only concern is lynch because our run D isn't good.

seattle's corners match up pretty nicely with jones and white, so that should be fun to watch.

again, falcons by 14.

rise up.

really?

you think that game serves any fucking relevance? don't be stupid

atlanta by 10+

i hope they win the nfc so bad, then get hammered by denver in the superbowl like it's '98 all over again
 
^ i think you can learn something about strengths, weaknesses and match-ups from every game.

you and cs both couldn't see seattle winning on the road in washington and they got it done. atlanta are hardly famous for their playoff record. can't wait to see what happens...

alasdair
 
the fact atlanta couldn't get it done in the past are more reasons to like them this year

surely coach smith has finally learned how to prepare for a playoff game

and again, seattle isn't that good, st. louis out performed them in their two meetings
 
I think Seattle going Coast to Coast to Coast to Coast will have a bearing on the outcome too.


Atlanta by 7 for me


EDIT: Scrap that, Seattle are staying on the east coast for the week.

Atlanta still by 7

lol at bringing up the bucs game.

i picked seahawks to win vs. redskins but Falcons gonna win. Seahawks are clearly not the same team on the road. They looked bad vs. the redskins last week and i thought they only won because RG3 was injured and handed them the game. Our D is much better than their ranking i'll just let you know that right now. and our offense will score enough points to win.

I think that Bruce Irvin playing instead of chris clemons because he tore his acl might really hurt seahawks rush D and if we are able to run the seahawks are fucked.
 
So whats everyone's game of the week for the div round?

Personally I gotta go with atl vs seattle. The afc matchups are meh, and while the packers 49ers could be epic, I think both the hawks and falcons have more to prove. This could be the game that defines the franchise for years to come for both teams. Both are in tough divisions and could realistically miss the playoffs consistently in the future.
 
im 100% sure we have a bunch of new stuff planned that we didnt use during the regular season. It might be our sick screen game that for some reason we only went heavy with a couple games this season and every time we used it we completely dominated. and Mike Nolan is a beast defensive coordinator and i know he wont disappoint.
 
It looks like Sherman is talking shit in the media again, suprise suprise.

Looks like he is calling out the redskins fans for not being as loud as hawks fans.

Even if its true, its still just a classless move by a classless guy. I hope the falcons WR's tear him a new one this week.
