Most people know I'm not an X's and O's guy. I am a typical diehard; reactionary, emotions-on-my-sleeve, callsitasiseesit kinda guy.
So I humbly offer that I am far from an expert when it comes to breaking down game film. However, is it just me or is this Atlanta Falcons team a bit of a Paper Tiger? I mean, yes, clearly they have talent, especially on offense. This thread isn't to smack talk or bash the Falcons. I respect that they are the #1 seed. You don't get to be the #1 seed because you suck. I just can't shake the feeling that they are not as good as their record indicates.
I was just curious to see if I'm on an island here or if this is the general perception. Falcons Fans if you are reading this and care to enlighten us - tastefully and with class like several Redskins fans were over the past week - I am totally all ears. I want to know if there's a ring of truth to this notion or if it's false hope.
