ESPN confirming what we already know about the Falcons fan base...

Not that I really care about the interview but why did he continue questioning the Pats & Seahawk fans on Falcon history after they stated they weren't Falcon fans? Seemed like a troll job. Lol. 

 

It tripped me out that the lady from SC was a dang Seahawks fan. I was sitting here thinking to myself "How...?"

Proof or it didn't happen.

Oh my goodness, the fact was in CA and there multiple reports about the noticeable absence of Panthers fans at the events by ESPN and NFL network  if you watched any of the pregame experience you would have heard it too  

denver had a huge following in CA.

Well, duh , of course there would be a lack of Panthers fans in Cali considering its all the way across the country. Also, Denver having more fans at the Superbowl than Panthers fans is also not surprising considering how much closer Colorado was. This video was actually done IN Atlanta, so completely different circumstances.

That's a really old video, and not even from the 2016 season. In fact, I don't even believe that it was made during football season in 2015. The fact that ESPN would take time to pile on the Atlanta fanbase using this video, shows just how petty and sensationalistic they are. Are people suppose to walk around in their fan gear during the middle of the week? Who wears their jersey on 90 degree days in downtown anywhere? I'm not saying the Falcon fanbase is great, and I won't defend them, because I too think the fanbase as a whole could be better. However, this video is ridiculous. You could go to many other NFL cities and this would be the same story there too. I've been to games in Tampa and Jacksonville and they are far worse in showing their support. I saw many empty seats at Steelers games this season. My brother-in-law is a diehard Giants fan and season ticket holder, and he said that you'd be amazed at how many empty seats they have at their games.

    • If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2024 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade. 
    • Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.  
    • I have zero issues with this.
