only way to stop it is to win the title this year like Golden State. They still pop 3-1 jokes though so I don't think you will ever escape it lol.
It's possible. The Falcons should be better this year, but they'll have a bigger target on their chest. We didn't lose anyone of much impact. Collins is about the biggest dent but he wasn't a starter. Aside from the comeback, last year was an unqualified success. I thought we were at minimum another year away from serious contention. I doubt anyone on this board would've called the Falcons a Super Bowl contenders this time last year. The end was a kick in the balls, but losing the Super Bowl is the second best outcome a team can achieve. A lot of people could be downers about it, but it really could've been worse. We didn't lose to some scrub team on a fluke. We lost to the best Coach/QB tandem of the last 25 years, if not ever. We did it without a Pro-Bowl corner and our starting left defensive end. We have those guys coming back. We got another first round pass rusher. We got Dontari Poe. We Duke Riley's mullet. Still got Matt Ryan. Still got Julio. I'm fucking excited this year
I'm not sure yet. Matt Ryan seems confident Sarkisian will keep the foot to the peddle a lot like Shanahan did. Shanahan is pretty reviled down here. Most people anticipate the Falcons to be better offensively, but I'm not sure if that's just cuz they want it to happen or if they actually expect it. Shanahan is known to be a douchebag, so at least the locker room will be a little more harmonious. People rag on Sarkisian, but it's not every day you have a guy fall into your lap as a coordinator that recently had one of the top 5 most prestigious college head coaching jobs in the world. With the weapons we have, it'll be hard for him to fuck it up
Yall scored the 7th most points in a season in NFL history. I think expecting the offense to be "better" isn't all that fair to Sarkisian. It's the same system, so they'll probably be fine, but better?
