Exactly. Well said.

Osi is set to sign with Falcons to take for cut of Abe
Is there any excuse why this team shouldnt be in Super Bowl next season with a full draft picks and revamped running game. Nolan to help mold some of his players and choose some in draft?
Outside Ryan injury there should be no excuse why this team doesnt make it to Super Bowl unless they are just not good enough |
Maybe this?

Lot can change still early in free agency and draft but as of now
DB depth ???
Projected starters Asante and McClain
were most likely drafting a corner early but Owens is still a free agent out there. Were most likely going to need him back for slot and depth unless we bring in a veteran corner and slide McClain back to slot
LB depth
Projected starters Nicholas, Dent, Spoon
we could even use a upgrade from Dent but we also lack some veteran depth at this position. God for bid Spoon gets hurt who would we have to fill in
defensive line is so atrocious.Basically one serviceable starter in Babs and rest are rotational guys at best
Biermann
Massaquoi
Matthews
Babs
Jerry
still need to bring back Walker..Just saw we lost him to Raiders
Dimitroff needs to have draft of his life this year to fill voids. This team could soon be heading in wrong direction  |

or this:
Do you consider Matt Ryan a choke artist?
Where you insist Ryan is a choke artist.
So, aside from the fact the D sucks and Ryan is a choke artist [according to you] no, no reason the Falcons shouldn't win it all. |

if Matt Ryan is elite as many make him out to be he can overcome this and hope defense can come around in playoffs. Unless Ryan has to win a Super Bowl with the defense not giving up more then 10ppg in playoffs and Ryan doesnt have to play his best ball |

Really, who says Ryan is elite? not the Folks on TATF, recent poll there showed 80% thought of him as 5-9. Recent thread here has him 6-8 in the majority opinion. Think 5-9 is pretty realistic, and not elite.
So, the overwhelming majority of folks both on this site and the Falcons home board think Ryan is good but not elite.
And you think he's a choke artist, I think you're letting your emotions get the better of you.
Ryan has had 2 chances for a fourth quarter comeback in the playoffs, and managed 1. If he had managed the second one, he'd be tied for ninth all time in playoff 4th quarter drives with 2. When 2 of something puts you in the top ten of that stat, it doesn't happen much. |

Mark Sanchez has 2 GWD so you are saying he is top 10 in GWD for playoff QB and that means something ? Just cause Ryan could have had a GWD he didn't be choked. Just like he has choked in other playoff games as well. I can play with numbers as well like Tim Tebow has as many GWD as Ryan does . Does that mean anything |

Doesn't change my point- not a lot of 4th quarter comebacks in the playoffs.
Love how you never answer the questions. Who says Ryan is elite? You can find a few individuals who say that, overwhelming majority of people say Ryan is 5-10.
Here's several REASONS that Falcons may not win the Super Bowl next year.
Injuries- every team is 2-3 injuries from being mediocre.
Aaron Rodgers & Drew Brees- two QBs that ARE considered elite by everyone, play in the same conference/division and can win any given game.
Seattle & SF are really really good teams- they're better than Atlanta right now, maybe better in the postseason next year.
If Eli, Tony and Jay get Olines, they can be really dangerous as well.
Haven't even gotten to the AFC yet- lots of really great teams over there as well.
All those things are out of Atlanta's control and could affect their season.
You simultaneously want to call Ryan a choker, TD an idiot, the D a mess AND complain about the Falcons not winning the Super Bowl.
So, when you did those connect-the-dots puzzles as a kid, you never got a picture did you? |

| Just an outsiders view, the ONLY excuse I can think of is if they lose the 49ers again. |
