I dont know if they will win it, but they will make the run.

There are only 2 AFC teams that are really just better than the Falcons. The Pats will always be better with Tom Brady at the helm, then you ahve the Steelers because of that efficient offense and the nasty defense. The Ravens are on par with the Falcons, but they really need to upgrade their receiving corps before I can really say they are better.

The NFC has 3 teams that are just better. The Eagles are just a damn good team. They lost a little on defense this off-season, but they gained more than they lost on the offensive side. At the very least they are just as good this year as they were last year. The Giants are solid everywhere. Nicks will pick up most of the slack left by Burress so the offense will be fine. The defense will be better if they can stay healthy this year. The Cowboys just have too much talent, but can they show it on the field this year? If they can, I think they are the #2 team in the NFL behind the Pats.

I totally agree, Matt Ryan is a total gamer and Roddy White is a real threat a wideout, Tony will open up the middle and Turner will lead the NFC in rushing. With a few breaks the Falcons can rep the NFC in the SB

Roddy White is good enough while other areas are brought up to par, but not good enough to put you over the top. Before the Falcons win a SB White will be replaced as the #1 WR. There are a couple good ones coming out next year that could really be game changers.

I would also LOVE to see the Falcons try to trade White and next years 2nd round pick(if they have another one) for Boldin. I would even say give them a first round pick for Boldin and a 4th rounder.

Why not get Braylon Edwards? He is not Boldin, but he can get the job done. Ryan would make him a better receiver. Or they can opt for Chad OchoCinco LOL!!! J/K:D

^^ I'd rather get somebody in the draft next year than go after another wide receiver with a big attitude and a big ego. Braylon Edwards has never lived up to all the hype yet, a good season or two but he isn't consistent from game to game. Chad Johnson isn't getting any younger and is a thorn in the side of his own team now...

Im sure if Braylon Edwards came to the Falcons Matt Ryan will make him have a career year. In Atlanta, he will get 1 on 1 coverage all the time, with Tony and Roddy where will help come from. IDK, I always been a Edwards fan and he needs to get out of Cleveland.

Cleveland and Cinci are a cancer to the players there. Get Ocho Cinco and Edwards out of their present situation and they will be fine.

Chad isnt a cancer in the locker room either. All of his issues ar with upper management and he ants out of a Bengals uniform, but he does put forth 100% on every play, which is more than I can say for MANY other receivers. I only mention Bolden because he can probably end up in a Falcons uniform for a lot less than either Edwards or Chad could.

Not a surprise. I have found that Atlanta sports fans are the most fair weathered fans in the country.

The outcome of this series was decided in the 2nd half of game 1. The Hawks decided then that they had no shot at winning and packed it in early.
