Falcons just got smacked in the face with a dead fish.

I'm going to go check on their message board.

Tell me how #71 is closer to nicks than any of the falcons secondary

I did not now that Nicks had those kind of wheels. He has a good high gear.

I have to believe this was the Giants' game plan from the start. Keep the game close and bang them up, then take advantage and gash them late in the game. Now the Falcons will have to sling the ball. It's all up to Matty Ice now to keep his third playoff game from slipping away.

I don't get that. It's not Joe's fault if the offensive line can't hold the D off.

Because some fans want things that are impossible. Like 4 touchdown passes with 400 yards every game. The oline is not perfect and Flacco needs receivers to get open and be allowed to audible.

I think the Falcons just lost the game with that one, right there. Could be wrong, but that's my $0.02.

The Falcons should have already used play action on one of those three short yardage situations. They can't run the ball this game, but they're stubbornly trying.

I still can't believe the Falcons offense has been shut out. Why aren't they throwing downfield? Isn't that why they got Julio? It makes no sense.

Giants d-line is nasty lol

Normally I'd question why the Falcons aren't using the screen game, but it's because the Giants get consistent pressure with four rushers. Screen game won't help them here.

Only once since 1989 has a team finished with just two points, last time it happened was the 1993 Bengals who lost 7 to 2.

This is what happens when you invest in one player too heavily. Atlanta hasn't even scored a touchdown. This is a good lesson for people who talk about trading our draft for one elite talent.

This is what happens when you can't run the ball, a good defense can drop into coverage. The Giants don't really even need to blitz, compounding the problem for the Falcons.

Now this is how you kill clock the right way. Stay aggressive and continue to get first downs. Every time Cam wants to kill clock we just go 3 and out. Man, Cam can learn a ton from many games this weekend lol.

Giants look really good, if they can play like this in Green Bay they have a chance to upset the Packers. They are the team that seems capable of puling those huge upsets.
