Tampa Bay finds ways to lose against any good team they play. Atlanta finds way to win against the good teams they play. I don't think us as LSU fans have the right to call any team lucky in a negative way... As much as I hate to say it, they are the best team in the NFL for the reasons TUSK listed, especially since they beat the defending champs at our own place...which would make it all the sweeter for us to take them out at their own place in January...
Atlanta is one and done in the playoffs, just like the Jets will be. They are living on borrowed time.
Just win and let the rest take care of itself. The Falcons are the one team that does not need to have home field throughout.
Please stop this thread before this topic starts to grow anymore. Everyone please look at who started it, and remember his track record. Nothing personal Izzy, I just want the Saints to have the best opportunity to repeat.
Already a bad sot giving Atlanta a 1st down...a missed holding call with Falcons involved...and another cocky play by R. White. The Falcons are the poster children for classless jerks! They should trade fo Kellen Winslow so they could have another big loser.
I just have a hard time believing they can go 14-2. If they do, that means they beat us again and we won't win the division. Still, if we both go 13-3 and 1-1 against each other, the first tie breaker is the division record. We both would've run the table in the division except for the 1 loss to each other. I think the next tie breaker would be the conference record and we would be tied here too. Our losses were to AZ and ATL (NFC). There's is to NO and PHI (NFC) and PIT (AFC). I have no idea what the 3rd tie breaker is.
Tampa just went up on ATL by 10 in the 4th Q. If they can hang on and win the game between us in a few weeks is gonna be H U G E!
