Who is your most hated NFC South rival?

In Denmark, alot of people are Falcons Fans because when the sport really became big here we got almost exclusively Falcons games due to Morten Andersen, the Kicker being Danish.. So all the fair weather fans jumped on the Falcons (and Patriots/Colts) bandwagon and haven't jumped off since.. we've got a few Bucs fans (who are mostly Gruden fans) and Saints fans (I saw exactly 1 Saints fan in my entire life before they bountied their way to the Superbowl) who mostly just know Drew Brees.. the Falcon fans think they know football, but in fact mostly just know about kicking, Michael Vick and Brent Grimes who the Danes on here can tell you is the best cornerback in the history of the NFL! (according to this one guy on the primary Danish football forum)

I have hated Atlanta for more than a decade so it is hard to change all that.  New Orleans fans are doing their best to help me change that perspective and put them on top.  Still since most games there are many more Atlanta fans at BOA compared to NO fans they still win out as my hated.  Nothing better than watching them leave the stadium for their single wides after a Panther victory.

The Bucs being pathetic the last few years hurt them.

The Falcons during the Vick reign, and a couple years ago were pains in the asses.

 

But the Saints, take the cake.  Partially because Brees/Graham/Payton, partially because they won a SB (should've never beaten Minny that year), partially because Bounty Gate, and partially because the whole Who Dat bandwagon, who couldn't tell you who Aaron Brooks was if you told them he threw footballs for a living.

You get pie for being a fan from another country.  This should be mandatory.

 

Also Saints fans suck.  They're all (mostly) backwoods retards that can't speak english properly.

Saints- Mainly because they think they are entitled to the division every year despite not accomplishing anything since trying to sweep the leg with the bounty gate scandal. We've also seen them try to cheap shot our players on a few occasions. Also they are a mentally weak team with the most overrated QB in the game.

The Saints and their fans have slightly surpassed Atlanta in pure arrogance and asshattery, but the Falcons have had arrogant asshat fans for longer.  Hatred edge goes to the Falcons, though it's pretty much a pick 'em once the season starts.

    • In all honesty, he should probably get that checked out. It might be (Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) "a tuuumaaa" 
    • Ah yes, my bad. It's easy to forget those handful of games Frank coached. LOL 
    • I've seen the comp a few times, and I feel there is a lot to it. Our situation is a lot like Kansas City was pre-Mahomes (without the HOF HC) Whether you like them or not, D&D are building something here.  They had a strong draft.  The team is slowly coming together, developing some identity, and has some decent blue chip parts.  Brown, Horn, McMillan, and a good OL situation that we should keep fortifying every year.  It's not much yet, but growing.    Bryce is in that Alex Smith spot.  A top draft pick, has never been overly impressive, but you can win games when he's safe with the ball.  You're not winning because of him - maybe once in a blue moon.  From time to time he's shown the ability to orchestrate some plays and lead drives.  I just don't see anything that is like - "oh snap, yeah don't let him go, he's ours".  He'll make a solid/good throw every now and again, but man, it is a struggle a lot of the time to watch.  Some terrible performances to speak of, heck he's already been benched once during year 2.      He should in no way preclude you from flirting with what else is out there.  This is not a marriage.  If you're in position (or trade range) for a guy you REALLY like come draft day, you shoot your shot. If we are in the draft process, and suddenly realize QB3-4 is a guy we really like, that's when you make a modest jump from like 16 to 11 or something like that.  Just like the Bills did for Allen, like the Chiefs did for Mahomes.  This is nothing magical that plants this franchise savior title on them, this is not some stupid trade-- it's an easy trade up to get a guy you like w/a big ceiling.  It's all player dependent and coaching/development driven.  If we don't like a QB, by all means fortify the front-7, get an awesome OLB or ILB prospect.   But we're on year 3, you kind of know what you're getting at this point.  Mostly sub-200 yard performances, low YPA, bad technique, poor mechanics, some decent stuff sprinkled in, but some bad turnover heavy ones that kill the team's momentum.  Again, run with him if there's no complete disaster that happens the remainder of the season, but don't close the door on something better just because of the investment or debatable performances.
