Ask The Falcoholic, Part Two: The Askening

As I still recover from the hangover yesterday. Saints D need to buckle up if they have any shot at stopping Michael turner. Ryan doesn’t make many mistakes. Bottom line is: Saints can’t make careless mistakes against the mistakeless Falcons.

We win a Super Bowl and now you guys figure you have to do the same. Isn’t it enough just to admire our shiny trophy? Why must you have one too? :)

What I mean by that is…they don’t overpower people. Games are usually always close and they seem to win the majority of their games by simply waiting for the other team to make a mistake first. That’s held up very well so far, but does it worry you when you get to the playoffs when teams historically up the ante that your team hasn’t shown true killer instinct yet?

Also on a more humorous note….have any of you Falcon fans considered starting a petition to have Matt Ryan change his nick name? You can’t go around calling a grown man “Matty Ice” with a straight face forever.

That is all.

No hedging, no analysis, just your gut: is this your year? Do you get a warm glow of certainty in your chest every time you think about it…or do you start to get the shakes and wonder if 1998 was your high-water mark?

I have watched your offense and it seems no one can stop Roddy and Matt. If Matt take a 3 step or 5 step drop the ball always is out and on time even if the defense knows its coming….also it seems the falcons never make a single damn mistake, I sit, i watch, I wait but it never happens!…is it just discipline of the conservative philosophy of your team?

Also I have been over on your site a few times and its seems falcon fans hate the saints so much. I am a life long saints fan but I never really grew the hate the falcons.

I dont know maybe it was because I liked the quaterback who cannot be named that plays for philly now , but is there a spike in the saints hate because the saints are SB champs?

Noticing Hasselback was forcing throws downfield and turned into interceptions. This what I’m hoping Drew won’t do on Mon night. We need to run the ball more than 14 times, enough said.

Matt Ryan is not your typical Flashy 300 plus passing QB like Drew Brees. But he’s very disciplined and makes very few mistakes.

  Saints are a gambling flashy offense. It works extremely well when we don’t turn the ball over.

Falcons offense, I would describe as a military offense. Run the ball hard, and only pass when needed. If other teams can’t stop the run. Falcons will keep running it down other teams throats without stopping.

 3 keys to the game on Monday for the Saints. Run the ball more with balance. Stop the run. And most importantly, “Do Not Turn the Ball Over”

The falcons will not win the Superbowl because it’s mine, dammit.

MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE, MINE AND, DAMMIT, YOU CAN’T HAVE IT!

Oh sure, you can go ahead and win out the remainter of the season/post-season but that won’t change a thing. Next year is a lock out year and that inicludes Superbow Rings! NFL security will be circling Tiffany’s with tasers and (surviving) pit bulls. Benson will be paying them for their time and Rita will be serving them chicory coffee and beignets.

The closest thing you will come to a ring ceremony will be cleaning that ugly smudge around your bath tube. You want a Lombardi? Well, this is as close as you’re going to come -

Lombardi / Zamboni, hell you guys wouldn’t know the difference anyway! Why? Because you haven’t suffered enough.

We have a terrible hurricane and you counter with . . . a drought? What? You mean you had to water your freakin’ pitunias with Perrier for weeks????

We have a major oil slick and you bastards cry because you spilled EVOO (thank you Rachael Ray) while serving arugula?

C’mon, Dave, it’s time to man up and SUFFER. Then, maybe then, God will look down on your team and say, “Ok, these dudes have earned it. I’ll give them a Superbowl. Oh yeah, and I’ll give them a windy, oil smudged football blog worthy of reading.”

Merry Christmas and the Very Best of the coming New Year to you and yours.

Yea, right.

Just some article of clothing that they can’t play good football in?

Also, I know you don’t live in Atlanta, but I’d just like to say that the giant New Year’s Eve peach is stupid.

How do other SB Nation blogs compare to us in terms of intelligent humor and being just plain funny? I just can’t see any other sports blog as funny as this one! Where else can you go from Matty Snowballs to the military, to Sponge Bob, to New hampshire and actually learn history, NFL defense, and geography and all the while laughing! I love it!

with this “Dave Choke” guy. The best chum I could reccommend is fish bait ,so is this an attempt to bait this man as a friend and then stand on his head after we beat his football team Monday nite on National TV? This will be their Super Bowl and defeated will be written in the Tuesday morning papers across the land. Doubts will reign supreme on every game show across this great country and our Saints will again be the measuring stick by which all other teams compare. Good luck, good nite, and wish you well.

What gives you the right?!

:)

Good luck to your guys Monday.

Barbecued? Fried? Baked? Nuggets?

Dave, I know you have conversations that don’t take place with Roddy White often (just look above). Can you ask him what he was thinking with the ’Aints reference, no matter how much Dilfer poked him? I mean really, we might give lots of back and forth crap, but I am pretty sure the Saints respect the Falcons for the accomplishment, especially given our own sordid past.

Who came up with the names at your blog? Mr. Baron of all He blogs?

The misconception that Katrina and the BP incident had anything to do with Our Super Bowl win. Everyone agrees that it is very hard to reach the pennical and no outside influence can make you achieve that. It takes a lot of dedication, focus, Talent and luck to get there and we had it all last year. Then you have idiots that make claims of devine intervention that ALLOWED us to come out on top. From where I sit………….it took devine intervention for Mr. White to do anything successfully based on his ignorant comments and the battered english translation he used to make such a stupid comment. By the way…….How many Super Bowls has Mr. White played in and how many has Atlanta won………………….“0”. Tell Mr.White, We bees the Champs till we aint no mo……………..We da Champs…..Y’all da Chumps win or lose Monday.

I am asking because I haven’t really followed his career. I think he’s played in 1 playoff game if I am correct. Are there any other games that stick out to you as being kind of “larger” than just regular season games where there is a little more on the line and maybe nationally televised like this one?

in a real Super Bowl push. Having said that, I don’t think Mike Smith will back off if Atlanta gets deep into the playoffs, but I don’t feel like they are ready to let him try to carry them team yet like Drew does or Peyton or Brady (or Vick, Rivers, Rothlesberger, etc)

I think ultimately for Atlanta to win a SB this year or next, there has to be more of a willingness to put at least certain scoring drives more on the QB shoulders. Mike Turner is very good but he won’t carry you to the SB either. Matty Ice must.
