Week 16: Monday Night Football--Saints at Falcons Open Thread
Matt Ryan has lost one home game ever. Two great quarterbacks, two great offenses. Something's gotta give. This game has the makings of a memorable NFC South matchup--so it will probably be 6-3.
Are you ready for the final MNF game of the year? Let's go...

Meh I like the falcons better as a team
And it isn’t likely that we’ll get the number one seed so I’ll root for them. Fuck the “who dat” saints.

I'd rather the bucs and giants make it

Right.
All the hype Matt Ryan get makes me sick. Meanwhile Freeman is having a probowl year on a less talented team. But all I hear about is Matt Ryan being a young Tom Brady and Sam Bradford being the next Troy Aikman.
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
Good point,
Josh Freeman is on his way to having someone say, “Hey, that kid is a young Josh Freeman” and it’ll be a good thing.
Aaron Rogers gets hyped like that too.
I know. lol
I went and checked his numbers today and was shocked!! That kid has 23TDs and 6 INTS!!
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
Exactly.
I can’t stand Ryan. Is he good? Yes. But he also has a first round receiver to throw to, Gonzalez to bail him out, Michael Turner behind him and a damn good offensive line. I’ll give Bradford credit though. He looks to be the real deal in St. Louis. IIRC his two starting receivers were both lost for the season. I’m a huge fan of Amendola’s as well. Wes Welker 2.0.
WILDCARD BITCHES!!! YEEEEHHHAAAAA!!!!!
Did you know that Matt Ryan
has been sacked only 6 times this year? I thought I heard that from somewhere. He’s good don’t get me wrong but come on!! He’s like an uber Orton to me. I think he needs everything perfect in order to succeed and to this point in his career it has been.
That’s why I give slack to guys like Rivers, Rodgers, Freeman, Brees, and Cutler. Those guys lack certain part but can put their teams on there back.
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
lol right after i read your comment
i hear chuckie say on the feed “protection holds up long enough for Ryan to find his checkdown.”
freeman
I’d say he is more of a skinnier version of Air Mcnair, sometimes he has those awesome flashy games, but mostly just consistent.
Bears. Bulls. White Sox.
I think he'll be better than McNair
He kinda reminds me of Joe Flacco but better.
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
I think he is going
to be better than McNair as well, McNabb too. Not sure why, I probably got to see about 9-10 Bucs games this year. To me he looks better than is stats say he is, and his stats are pretty good. I think it is the eye test, or something like that, I think that kid has it.
Screw the Falcons
They’re good but they’ve had a horseshoe up their ass too. Then they get to play the worst team in football to lock up the number one seed. If they lose today and we beat the Pack, all I’ll think about is that Washington game and how it cost us the #1 seed.
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
I'd rather hear about the falcons who are somewhat likable than mike dick and the fucking iggles
In addition to that I would rather face Eli in the playoffs than drew brees.

There's a possibility,
that the Bears might play better on the turf in Atlanta than they would on the turf in Soldier Field.
That's another reason why I'm rooting for them

Eh.
I’d rather have the homefield and the 4th phase backing ‘em up. Atlanta is a loud place. Went to the game last year, and though there were a ton of Bears fans, Atlanta’s fans get crazy loud.
WILDCARD BITCHES!!! YEEEEHHHAAAAA!!!!!
Soldier Field
will be a great place to play games in January, if we are playing the Saints or the Bucs.
It would be nice if they both lost
But unless Ditka is interested, it’s not going to happen.
I will root for the Saints, but I have a feeling that even if the Falcons lose, they won’t lose to the Panthers next week.
that roughing the passer penalty
was just wow. Jo lun dunnbar started diving at the same time as matt ryan. Gruden of course, ‘great call, you got to make that call.’
No, that was just hogwash and ‘wussy’ to quote the Gov of pennsylvania
Bears. Bulls. White Sox.
You don't fully appreciate Hester
until you watch other special team units. I remember when Reggie Bush was suppose to be the next Gayle Sayers. Little did we know that Hester would be the more impactful player and HOFer.
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
Well we know one thing
gruden can count…..

I actually like Gruden.
He can be a little rough to listen to sometimes though.
WILDCARD BITCHES!!! YEEEEHHHAAAAA!!!!!
they are at least partially scripted as to what they say
Gruden is basically ok.
"I am a sinner who does not expect forgiveness. But I am not a government official." - Francis Wolcott
I think
grudens ok….I like how he can break down a play and what not but his praising of players goes WAY OVER board at times and the “This guy Matt Forte” or “This guy mike vick” type stuff can get grating at times…..

I go take a shower and come back and its still 10 – 7…….So the offensive shoot out (this game) turns into a defensive battle and the Defensive battle (Bears game) turns into a offensive shoot out…..Hmmmm…..NFL fixed? …..

Falcons have benefitted
from more unforced errors by other teams than any team in the league. They have sucked tonight but will get bailed out again
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
LOL
They’re calling Brees a “fierce competitor” for one of the dumbest plays of the year. But poor Jay can’t throw a ball off his back foot without the world coming to an end. Brees has 20 INTs this year. He’s not having a good season
Hey Rose. I don't see the appeal!
The Saints don't seem to be playing very well tonight.

So far all the talk about Cutler
looks like the heroes can not pick up the slack to show Cutler how to play…..Guess they should watch more Jay Cutler film……

That's what Defense looks like!
if Bears play similar tough and stingy defense like NO and ATL played, they should be in business.
So its ok

espn america...
… was just running a small special on the 1980 annoucerless game.
By this time every monday, let me tell ya, it sounds a great idea.
probably a bigger defeat for the falcons than a great victory for the saints, since they were lucky to get away with such poor ball security, while the falcons failed time and time again to give themselves some separation.
but screw that. we know that brees is never lucky and the two picks were just GREAT plays by the defense, right?
Matty Ice
Got ICED by Breesus, so much for all that talk for Atlanta being this and that
FUCK’EM
BEAR DOWN!
Guns dont kill people. Brian Urlacher kills people.
ESPN after game show
they are talking about GB like they are already in the playoffs.

It's critical that we beat gb on Sunday
I don’t see the eagles losing their next two games and the pack are looking rejuvinated. As was implied before, I’ll be rooting for the giants and bucs next week.

Its Clear That The Falcons Are Frauds
The only reason why they have the best record in the NFC is because they play a lot of lousy teams and they can get beaten by winning teams. In this game Atlanta had no offense, their two scores were due to a penalty call and the other one was a pick 6 by Brees.
All the talking heads on TV that gush about Matt Ryan are idiots; these guys are overrated and I hope the Bears kick their butts in the NFC championship game.
