They just beat the Minnesota Vikings, in Minnesota, and, combined with the Dallas and Tampa Bay losses, Atlanta is now in as a wild card entry.
Awesome shit for a team that was supposed to be 4-12. Later, QD.
lol,i made a thread at same time as u...........great year by the falcons.......and ill add
fuck vick!
what a great win for the Falcons and the entire franchise. I can't believe the Falcons made it to the playoffs... UNBELIEVABLE!
Matt Ryan is a future hall of famer, and we maybe seeing the early stages of one of the future greats!
hell yeah i should be out celebrating but fuck this cold weather.
Awesome stuff! I must say, I had my doubts about them. Matt Ryan and da Falcons FTW

boooooostin'
congrats to the falcons
Ya, was pretty sweet. We needed the Cowboys, Bucs or Panthers, so far we are 2 for 3 on that. And they whooped ass up in Minnesota. Go Falcons!
FTW
I was excited to turn on the game with 5 minutes left in the 4th quarter and the Falcons up by 2 touchdowns.![]()
hell yes Turner and Roddy White are heading to the pro bowl, Matt Ryan should be rookie of the year, mike smith should be coach of the year, and Abraham got cheated out of the pro bowl he deserves it, and think about it if we win next week and Carolina losses then we become the #2 seed in the division below the giants
I told Kristi that if the Falcons make it to the superbowl, our baby who is due Jan 24th may have his middle name changed from Christopher Lee Culpepper Jr. to Christopher Ryan Culpepper lmao..Originally Posted by Imadaman
lol fuck vick for what? this has nothing to do with him, the falcons probably would have had more wins this season with him playing. but anyway i would have been so disappointed if the falcons lost, the vikings gave it to them (4 turnovers)Originally Posted by HypnoToad
yeah possibly, but i refuse to expect such huge expectations from ryan after just one season, and its not even playoff time yet, who knows we may not even get past the first round. i rather just sit back and watch what he grows into.Originally Posted by americanctm

if you look at the pass ryan made, it really was not all that accurate it would have sailed out of bounds if jenkins was not able to jump up that high. i dont think ryan is the definite reason why the falcons are looking good, you have to look at the coaching staff, stellar running game, abraham is staying healthy, ryan is just a piece to the pie.Originally Posted by BanginJimmy
u can compare vicks best year to ryans and ryan had a better year.....thats speaks alot for how good vick was,o and the year vick had over 1000 yards rushing he only had 2 TDs on the ground.
a Rookie QB is not a flute,hes just gonna get better.
LMAO! You sir, are a complete moron! Not a Falcons fan, but the team is 10x better without vick.Originally Posted by VIP Style
Rich...Bob...Stan...?????
Sweet Jesus. Can we have a single fucking thread about the Falcons without comparing Ryan and Vick!?
ok first off you dont see me calling folks out of there name so gone with that bull shit, and yeah im a falcons fan, and yeah i like ryan and vick, but i dont think the team is necessarily "10x" better without him. vick is not give enough credit where its due, folks was all on his nutz before he went down, and now that the great white hype is in town, folks want to talk down like he aint did shit for the franchise.Originally Posted by richw131
First of all, type english. Second, Vick could run, but had no throwing skills. He would make a nice scatback, but QB he is not. He is a dumbass as a person and an average QB in the NFL.Originally Posted by VIP Style
I would say that Ryan and the current coaching staff have done more for the organiztion than anyone in the past 5+ years.
P.S. You are still a moron.![]()
Rich...Bob...Stan...?????
Dude Vick was exciting, but he insists on being a one-man show. Run before pass every down, he would give a half ass look for crumpler and maybe finn, then he'd just run. It was exciting, but Ryan makes for a much better leader and QB. Also, Vick screwed himself over, so don't try and make it sound like Falcons fans turned on him for nothing, he let the team down in a big way, but it just turned out for the best in the end. Rise from the ashes cause this team burned to the ground last year.Originally Posted by VIP Style
I'm tired of seeing all these ignorant ass folks (usually black, but thats just an observation) wearing Vick jerseys to Falcons games... I'm glad they are giving them team money by buying tickets, but you guys look retarded wearing those jerseys... Ya, I bought a #7 jersey a few years ago, it's sat in my closet since the arrest.
Vick is paying his dues to society, but he still stole a bunch of money from the orginization and KILLED there chances of a good season in 07. Lucky for us, Arthur Blank hired Dimitroff and and all the chips fell in place from there.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rD4FH...eature=related lol i kid you not, i saw a older white man rocking a vick jersey in walmart yesterday, but anyway my point is this, im happy for ryan getting a chance at being our QB because he deserves it, and yeah vick is a idiot for laying all that down, but in the end when does the bashing of mike vick stop? as far as insisting on being a one man show? hell he had to run to make something happen if his receivers are dropping passes or if they are not open. its just looks that way because he was such an efficient threat when he had to run it. heck ryan experienced that the first time we played carolina (7 dropped passes) and ryan is not much of a playmaker on his feet, so it makes him look bad when receivers dont show up. if our core of receivers start slippin, then so does ryan, but then again the running game is on point. im still just baffled over how folks dont think he can cut it at playing QB, just look at the video.Originally Posted by HyPer50

o well doesnt matter,vick will never wear a falcon on his helmet again...hes the past and ryan is the future.
Now Ryan's about to get tested. Whether or not we make it out of the first round, this season was way better than I imagined. I pictured us maybe going .500, but we have had a great year. The best part is, it should only go uphill from here.
I've been a long time falcon fan and loved it back when Candler was at the helm and took us to the Super Bowl sure we didn't win but it did create the dirty bird. Right after vicks first season i quit watching the falcons he was a team killer with his attitude, plus he has always been in trouble with the law . were better with ryan for sure plus he'll last longer and play more snaps in a season then vick ever was bc vick got hurt and would most likely get hurt permanently bc he always took the full hit by the defense and never slid like a quarter back should
At the very least it's good experience for a young team.Originally Posted by alpine_aw11
hold up, you really dont know what your talking about, vick was not always hurt first of all, and always in trouble with the law, wtf? maybe his brother marcus, and i dont see how he killed the team considering he was at the helm last time we made it to the nfc championship game. like i said, its always folks trying to discredit vick like he didnt do anything for the franchise, just haters i guess.Originally Posted by brandenj
vick was a rapper playing football,he didnt take it serious....remeber him with the hooker,the weed and the dogs....he didnt say he was always hurt he said he never slid when he ran some he was gonan take a big hit one day,like he did when he broke his leg.
yea im a big hater,im so jealous im not a pot smoking dog beating prison inmate.
noone is gonna give pity for vick,so idk if that what ur looking for.
Vick should go to Tampa Bay.......
i was thinking Oakland...he would fit in there.
well thats a personal problemvick could have done alot worse, hell look at caylee anthonys mother, and that fucka madoff, i think its time to forgive and forget, let the man move on. im talking about his ability on the field is what folks be hating on. anyway when he gets out, he better show out where ever he goes, i hope the raiders get him or tampa

The only thing he really did for the franchise was hype up the media circus and make them money off of retail sales and endorsements. He was a sorry quarterback, although he had great potential to be a great one. He was a talented football player for sure. But just like you always want to belittle anyone who talks negatively about him, you've had a pitbull grip on the reins of his nuts from the beginning of his downfall. You say he shouldn't be in jail. You say he shouldn't be guilty. You've concentrated more on excuses for his mistakes than he has. You're so much pro-Vick that you think he can do no wrong and has done no wrong.Originally Posted by VIP Style
These people aren't Vick "haters." They're Vick realists. Now I liked Vick. I loved watching him play, but wrong is wrong no matter who does it.
Just a word to the wise, dude, loosen up on his sack, man, or when he comes out of jail, you'll be calling him Michelle Vick.
Later, QD.
here we go you trying to be on some funny faggot shit(lol), i never said he should not have been guilty, you break the law, then you pay the time, duh. and i never belittle anyone who talks down i just present the fact that he got the job done as our QB, if he didnt then why would the falcons lock him up to such a long contract? i just think its time to stop the talking down and let him be, he paid his time, so quit trying to hang the man.Originally Posted by quickdodge®
I remember threads where you said he shouldn't have went to prison and that dog fighting isn't shit and since he didn't actually do it that he shouldn't be responsible. He got the job "semi-done" as a quarterback. He was like the next Deion Sanders. I know I don't participate in hanging the dude. When he does his time, it'll be interesting to see what happens. As a quarterback, Matt Ryan seems to beat him out in more ways than one. Vick was only good for running, BUT, like I said above, he had the potential to be a good quarterback. He was just out for himself and wanted to be the playmaker. Don't get me wrong, though, as I'm not climbing on the Ryan Express. This is just one year. The only thing he hasn't done is the one thing Vick was good at (running). But in the end, a real quarterback's job isn't to run the ball himself.Originally Posted by VIP Style
It's all good, though. The Falcons are where they are and I'm real happy for them. Later, QD.
some of you are really funny let me see if i can remember how we got vick n the first place ummm lets take a lil stroll shall we. the year before we got vick was our worst year we where dead last hince why we got a get the first round pick. we where the laughing stock of the nfl shit the fuckin browns and bengals had better records than us. no one was going to the games there was not alot of people wearing falcon jerseys. the fuckin city was dead face it dead no love for the falcons at all. now when we got vick he brought ecitment to the field he gave the city back there passion for there football team. we where now once again a force to be noticed . but some of u wanna run ur mouth sayin we where such a sorry ass team with vick at the helm. i swear most of u are wht 15 16 20. u guys really dont know shit about football. wht vick did was wrong. but like i have said before i have seen many other nfl playes both black and white commit worst crimes tht killing a fuckin dog but did u see them get sent to prison did u seem them get strip of there endoursemnt did u see a whole city turn there back on them. its wired how someone like mark mcguire can lie about bascially cheating but u guys still llove him wanna call him the best homerun hitter of all time but u wanna hang barry bonds by his nuts. n i do not think arthur blanks is a complete dumbs so he had to see something n vick he would not be talkin about so much on espn n many other sport channels would no be the face of many compaines if he was a sorry qb back. i hate to say it but this shit is just all race. here we are in the south u have a black qb who has never won a superbowl game but hey he is makin more money than anyother player n the league at the time. i know tht didnt sit well with his white counter parts n lets face it Ga didnt like havin a black man as there qb lets just fuckin honest. cause all of a sudden u motherfuckers are falcon fans over night cause we got the great white hype ryan. like i said i am a falcon fan first been a fan fromway before deion was there before jusse tuggle before chris before morton before dan reeves. i know this teams history and where they have been i am very pround of this team for all tht they have accomplish. but i will not sit here n have a very talented football player like mike vick get talked about like he was the sorriest qb to have hike the dam ball. n its not just vick u guys seem to forget. it all boils down to coaching a fighter is only good as his trainer. so if ur trainer sucks guess what u going to ge knocked out. once again the team and staff that vick had does not compare to the team and staff ryan has get tht tru your thick fuckin skulls
you guys really need to watch this vid.

holy crap thats the longest run on non sense I've ever read. and just to clarify, i don't like McGuire, and I really liked Barry Bonds, and for what it's worth, I really liked Vick. I just think the team is in a much better position than it was under Vick. Sure the stands were filled with folks, but they were a bunch of bandwagon Vick fans, not Falcons fans. I got tired of hearing "the Atlanta Vicks". The entire country thought we were a one man team... Also, Vick didn't join the team at an awful time.. Ya we had a bad record, but we were just 3 years off of a Superbowl appearance. Plus we had Dan Reeves who is one of the best coaches we've ever had.Originally Posted by OUTLAW
Vick = exciting, but he screwed himself, noone to blame but himself. Dont cry about him losing endorsements.. why would people want a dude who does that, as a role model for there kids? You can say what you want, but once the truth came out about McGuire and the rest of the stuff you mentioned, the same thing happened to them. Also... steriods aren't illegal, it's just a banned substance, so totally different thing.
I just wanted to give you props for being able to make it through Outlaw's post.Originally Posted by HyPer50
lol x2,all i noticed was killing dogs is not a bad crime and white people hate vick.Originally Posted by Deke
and this has nothing to do bout race,cause Mcnabb is a great QB...who passes![]()
