    #1 Defense vs #1 Offense in the Super Bowl

    Nothing wrong with that. My roommate back in 2007 was a Pats fan and he lost a bundle. :mrgreen:

    #1 Defense vs #1 Offense in the Super Bowl

    NE is #1 in total DVOA. Atlanta is #3. NE has the #2 offensive DVOA, and ATL has the #27 defensive DVOA. ATL has the #1 offensive DVOA, and NE has the #16 defensive DVOA. Toss up?

    #1 Defense vs #1 Offense in the Super Bowl

    Not when you consider the level of competition the Patriots played this season to get that #1 scoring defense. Best QB they faced was Russell Wilson... and they lost. Look at DVOA... http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef Atlanta beat #1 and #3... lost to #4 and #5... then beat...

    Dan Quinn

    Can't agree. After the run to the 2012 NFC championship game the Falcons went 4-12 in 2013 and 6-10 in 2014. Blank fired Mike Smith... brings in Quinn and they start 5-0 in 2015 before fading to 8-8... which can mostly be blamed on the offensive line, defense, and Ryan looking completely lost...

    2017: Super Bowl

    LOL never said that. Just stating how I feel about the game and my reasons behind it. I don't care how many Super Bowls B & B have. They were supposed to beat the Giants too... twice. Are Atlanta fans supposed to be terrified of the Patriots and that murderer's row of QBs their "top scoring...

    2017: Super Bowl

    You're a lot more nervous than I am. I'm actually relaxed and quite comfortable. New England's solid D is a bit overrated IMHO. http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef They aren't even in the top 15 in DVOA. (Neither is Atlanta, but that's not the topic here) Atlanta has already...

    2017: Super Bowl

    C'mon man.... I know you're pro-New England and all that but did you even watch the game? I'm assuming you didn't... so here's one of the headlines. Meanwhile, the Steelers' rushing attack, that had been so critical to their earlier playoff wins, was crippled by an early injury to running back...

    This Years Playoffs....blah...

    Lets hope so. They both tied for #1 in the league in turnovers... 11 in 16 games. I'm expecting a clean game with a close score.

    This Years Playoffs....blah...

    I'd agree. What hype is there surrounding the Falcons? Our first Super Bowl in 18 years? Dan Quinn's 3rd Super Bowl in 4 years? The pressure is on Brady and Belichick to bring home #5. Atlanta can go in feeling confident and relaxed. It is the Super Bowl though... LOL

    This Years Playoffs....blah...

    :mrgreen: For the first time ever... we agree. Of course I thought the same thing about the GB game. Either way though... if Atlanta pressures Brady like they did Rodgers we'll be fine. If they give him all day like the Steelers did it will be a long day. Somehow I think Quinn will devise...

    2017: Super Bowl

    NFL Nation forum... and I also the follow the Seahawks. They are a local team. I've seen more Seattle games (all of them) in the last 5 years since moving here than I have Atlanta games... LOL I hope you're right.

    This Years Playoffs....blah...

    I guess they're inflated?... and they still averaged what? 34 a game? 40 in the last 6 weeks or so? You're right... they lost in Seattle by 2... beat Denver in Denver by 7... lost to KC by 1 at home, and lost in Philly by 9. The Philly game was their worst game of the year. It was followed...

    How funny would it be

    2017: Super Bowl

    Every fanbase has their pricks 253hawk. I personally am not all that much into trash talk. I'll defend my team till the cows come home with stats and opinions but I usually let the other guy dig their own hole. One of my friends is a Packer fan... he flooded my FB page prior to the game...

    This Years Playoffs....blah...

    Better in points allowed? Sure. The only defense even comparable is Denver at #4. But at the same time is New England's defensive ratings inflated by the murderer's row of QBs they faced this season? Ryan Fitzpatrick x2 Tyrod Taylor x2 Tannehill/Moore x2 Brock Osweiler x2 Trevor Siemian...

    2017: Super Bowl

    LOL yeah... it's ok... we're used to the media hating on us. Hahah.... I really believe if the Falcons were to win 51 the headline the next day would be "Where did the Patriots go wrong?" It's not all bad though... Deion has given us a lot of love... as he should. :)

    This Years Playoffs....blah...

    The realist in me says in pretty good shape. http://www.espn.com/nfl/player/gamelog/ ... ulio-jones 5 games with less than 60 yards. 2 games DNP. Falcons won them all. Gabriel, Sanu and Hooper will have to step up... and Freeman/Coleman catching passes out of the backfield has been lethal...
