Falcons are just lucky

mmike032 · 11-28-10, 03:59 PM

good teams find ways to win game
Matty Ice being the key

Doc JS · 11-28-10, 04:03 PM

Branch Rickey - luck is the residue of design.

or as Mike said, good teams make a lot of their own luck. And they are VERY good at home. I think Matty Ice is 19-1 as a starter at home now...

Please tell me how their lucky?

Stupid thread haha coming from a Bucs fan makes it even funnier.

Cuse0323 · 11-28-10, 04:05 PM

Pretty lucky today, fumble on the 1 from the Packers and a 4th down drop that led to a TD that was missed.

bruce_outside · 11-28-10, 04:07 PM

1 or 2 games are lucky. a whole season, no. remember how people said the saints were lucky last year to get all those turnovers?

They beat the bucs on a bullshit 4th down play at home , they beat the Packers on a facemask penalty , they beat fukkin san Francisco on the luckiest play

lucky...

Best team in NFL beating some of the best teams in football week after week. How can they be lucky today? They never trailed in the game?

kcDdegenerate · 11-28-10, 04:17 PM

only lucky team in the nfc are your Bucs....Ravens will eat them alive today

BIRDSS!!!

kcDdegenerate · 11-28-10, 04:18 PM

funniest post of the week

I'd say their opponents are unlucky, rather than they're lucky. And it was brains that forced Clements to fumble so they could drive and beat SF.

That was six points without the penalty. Turnover at the 1 was forced by the defense. You should order the NFL redzone channel so you can watch the games. And not sound so stupid.

The NFC championship will go through Atlanta.

dwang0725 · 11-28-10, 04:41 PM

Fumbles are forced by the defense, not given to them. Well played game by ATL today.

The J-Dizzle · 11-28-10, 04:51 PM

Yeah Atlanta is lucky as hell! Tampa Bay was 1 yard away from TD against them but somehow Tampa screw it up, and tonight against Packers Rodgers fumbles on the 1-yard line! And against Baltimore the referee ignored an offensive pass interference on their last drive when they did the TD. Atlanta is lucky to be in the lead in the NFC south, everyone knows it, they sure have the margins with them.

When your Bucs beat a team with a winning record come talk to me.

Seattle Slew · 11-28-10, 05:07 PM

Atlanta is solid in all areas, but they are playing with fire. Just like the Jets. They could use a loss so the coaches can get all over the players. But they are winning 12, 13 easy, and will be the No. 1 seed. They still have Carolina twice!

kcDdegenerate · 11-28-10, 05:42 PM

Ravens are lucky to be beating your Bucs 17-3 at halftime

brooks85 · 11-28-10, 05:44 PM

lucky wins you superbowls and Atlanta has it, no doubt about it. Everything is going their way plus they are playing mistake free football, gotta be nice.

Care to make a wager on that? Atlanta winning the super bowl?

brooks85 · 11-28-10, 05:51 PM

well unless you want to give me odds that I cant get anywhere else, I dont have much of a desire to make a wager with some random guy at SBR.

And im not saying Atlanta has the superbowl, Im saying atlanta has IT = lucky

brooks85 · 11-28-10, 05:56 PM

how about atlanta to win the superbowl +1500 for 100?

are you going to pay up 1500 if it cashes, i doubt it

you got paypal?

C-Gold · 11-28-10, 06:00 PM

Why do you want odds? You said Atlanta is going to win it.

C-Gold · 11-28-10, 06:01 PM

Just another pussy from Atlanta. It must run in the water down there. A bunch of imbreed, dumb, ignorant fools.

brooks85 · 11-28-10, 06:04 PM

well, I did not say Atlanta would win it, I said they are lucky and that is what wins superbowls.

And though im not from Atlanta you must really think they are dumb. Taking a SU bet for a team to win the superbowl at week 12, that would definitely fit the bill of someone who is "imbreed, dumb and an ignorant fool."

so again, unless you want to give me better odds than the books there is no way im making a superbowl bet with some bum on sbr because we both know you wouldnt pay up.

I'd put Atl #2 behind the Pats.

....Better lucky than good.
And I agree. Atlanta fans are amongst the worst in sports (not as fair weather as the Yankees, they just don't support their teams) - but it doesn't matter. They have a solid/rounded and well coached squad. Rex Ryan spoke this week on how good teams always seem to get lucky... And yes, they are, and they always find a way to win. The better team won that game. Turnovers, crap special teams vs good special teams and big plays by the D always decide games in a strong matchup of top teams. Sure was a fun game to watch, even though my Pack got beat. We find ways to let teams get that 'game over' field goal.
