All I Want For Christmas
Posted on 21 Dec 2011 by Nicole Flanary.
Mistake-free play. Okay, so that is essentially impossible, but with all due respect to our defense, if we let Dree Brees play with a short field, we are in more trouble than Alec Baldwin is with American Airlines….we might as well give them the trophy . Historically, our defense has played lights out (Candlestick Park style) against New Orleans, but when their QB is on pace to break Mari...

We’re On Santa’s Naughty List… How Do We Learn To Play Nice?
Posted on 21 Dec 2011 by Nicole Flanary.
There aren't really words… Of all weeks in the season to feel confident about a W, I felt pretty damn good about this one. The Houston Texans– I'd venture to say they've been the Dark Horse team of the league. Good.Great.Grand. Wonderful. They're on what? Their fifteenth string quarterback? Not to mention, their pre-season super star receiver (and one of the most sought-after fantas...

Coming To A Theater Near You…
Posted on 30 Nov 2011 by Nicole Flanary.
So, here's the thing…as much as I love sports, (sigh) I also happen to love romantic comedies. I hate to admit it, really I do..but I legitimately get excited when I look at my TV Guide and see “How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days” is on. I DON”T get excited when I'm watching Sunday Football and see “How To Lose a Huge Lead” starring the Not-So-Dirty Birds from Atla...

Best Case Scenario
Posted on 26 Nov 2011 by Nicole Flanary.
I know it's admirable to want to win when all the best players are on the field… but hearing the news early this week that Minnesota's list of questionable players included Adrian Peterson made me smile about as big as when I heard Kim K's mom tell a radio talk show host that her daughter didn't make any money off her two-part wedding special on E!. Last week, (specifically in his 43 yard...

Shake Your Tail Feather
Posted on 21 Nov 2011 by Nicole Flanary.
Well, hot diggity dog. Michael Turner was on fire. Roddy White was on fire. Matt Ryan had a 316 yard performance, proving that he is still very much the man whose cold, calculated play earned him the nickname, “Matty Ice”. Phew. There were a myriad of things to get excited about after watching the Falcons pull out a 23-17 victory against the Titans. Tony G capped off a five play, 56...

Can the Falcons beat the Titans?
Posted on 18 Nov 2011 by Josh Brown.
I didn't get to see the end of the Falcons' game last week, simply because I had been watching the game on my phone and it died after the Falcons' first overtime possession. So I went several more hours not even knowing the result of the game, and didn't find out how that result came until Monday. I was kind of glad that I was spared the horror of that 4th and inches call by Mike Smith. But tod...

I Think I Can, I Think I Can
Posted on 17 Nov 2011 by Nicole Flanary.
The last thing I want to sit here and say is what everyone else is saying, but, uh… If Atlanta comes out of Sunday with a win, they're very much still viable for a playoff position. If they don't, well, there's always next season. There are two things every team needs to do well to be effective in today's NFL– Pass and rush the passer. The latter the Falcons have struggled with all ...

Falcons Take On The Saints
Posted on 11 Nov 2011 by Josh Brown.
This weekend is a big game for the Falcons and the Falcons' fans. We take on our rivals, the New Orleans Saints. This rivalry has been heated for years, but now that both the Falcons and the Saints are playing good football, the rivalry has taken on a whole ‘nother degree of intensity. The Saints have been the better team, making it to the Super Bowl and winning it not too long ago. The F...

Falcons Take on the Colts
Posted on 5 Nov 2011 by Josh Brown.
It's been a good bye week for the Falcons. They're coming off a victory against one of the NFL's surprise team, the Detroit Lions. The Falcons' record is above .500, which is good considering we had been at .500 or below all season. And luckily for the Falcons, this next stretch of games looks like a good time to improve their record. They have the Colts, Saints (at home), Titans (at home), and...

Falcons vs Lions: Why the Dirty Birds Will Win
Posted on 21 Oct 2011 by Josh Brown.
Dirty Birds versus the Ferocious Felines. The Lions have been the NFL's surprise team this year. But I had a feeling they would be good. A couple of early draft picks several years in a row usually builds a fantastic team a few years later. That's how good teams rebuild (especially after 0-16 seasons). That's what the Lions did. I have been cheering for them this season, and took a minor blow w...

Better Late Than Never
Posted on 18 Oct 2011 by Nicole Flanary.
Now, that's more like it… Against the 27th ranked Carolina run-D, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to predict the probable game plan of the Atlanta Falcons. If I were a betting woman, which of course I am not, I would put my money on Michael Turner getting a whole boatload of carries. Check. Turner racked up two touchdowns and 139 yards on 27 attempts. He also averaged 5.1 yards a carry...

Falcons’ 2nd Half Offense Comes to Life, Secure Win
Posted on 17 Oct 2011 by Josh Brown.
This had been the story for at least two of the Falcons' losses and at least one of their wins: The Falcons score some points in the first half, and then score little to none in the second half. Today however, that changed. Thankfully. The Carolina Panthers and their prized rookie came into town looking for their 2nd win of the season. And they were poised to win. But good teams beat who they a...
