Is it time to take the Falcons seriously?

And good players. Good Coaching only takes you so far. The same with good players. You need a good mix of both. 

I agree, but the players we have is who we have. We will have better, even or worse players than our opponents. Hopefully our coaching will win out. Coaching isn't just about coaching the game but relating to the players and getting to play above their potentials.

Good Coaching can make decent players better. It cannot however, make bad players good.

 

Good players can win with bad coaching, but you need a poo ton of talent to do so.

 

I think you are undervaluing our talent level. But hey, there are a whole lot of Huddlers who are doing the same thing. That's fine and all. But, don't come running to me if we start winning games and have a good season and all.

What in the sam hill are you talking about? Where do I elude to undervaluing our players. This is the NFL, the best football players in the world and no all of them aren't on the same level. But good Coaching can coach them to be better in our system, ie. Josh Norman. 

Come crying to you when we start winning. This my team, I'm expecting us to start winning. This is the most excited I've been about a season since Cam Newton. But this ain't a one man show no more. 

The Carolina Panthers are looking for legitimacy...

You know what dude. I concur wholeheartedly.

The joy of the NFL. is you never know from year to year. Almost any team has a chance if they catch lightning in a bottle.

The Falcons have done that twice in 1998 and 2016. But couldn't sustain success after those years.

That is why we N.F.L. fans keep watching and keep coming back. The NFL has the best product in all pro sports. What professional league can say that almost every team has a chance to win a championship every year. Only the NFL.

Most pro sports only have a handful of teams that can win a championship. But every year the N.F.L. can get one team that wasn't expected to be in the Super Bowl. What other professional league can say that?

The other leagues are more predictable. The NFL is not. That is why they are the number one sports league in America!

As a fan this is the most I've been excited about the defense for 2 decades. Sure none of our acquisitions are world beaters sans Jessie Bates, but it's the sum of their parts that has me giddy. The DL added another 20 sack players, and we finally have that eraser on the back end we sorely lacked forever. I expect this defense to be at least middle of the pack in points given up.

The reason I like Pro football  better than College football is this--in college, Sabin wins because Sabin gets better players.  In the NFL, the players are pretty even.  Coaching matters.  Football IQ matters, technique matters, free agency matters, the draft matters, chemistry matters.  The general manager and capologist matter about as much as the coaches and scouts.  Winning is such a complex formula. 

Alabama has about 3 games where the opponent is a threat to beat them--they play 12 games, I believe.  To me, that is like having 9 preseason games. 

I can say that for the first time since I can remember, we are doing everything possible to win a championship.

The Eagles went all out getting all these so called elite players. Look what happened to them that year when they literally fell flat on their faces literally and were destroyed and stopped dead in their tracks the whole season. I'm not saying the Falcons will fail but nobody knows who will falter this season.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
