Yo, I knew Matt was on a tear but I didn't realize it was on this level: Matt Ryan playing like 2007 version of Tom Brady

I've also read some stories pondering on how Ryan and the team will deal with pressure. Does anyone remember Matt Ryan in his rookie year making a similar throw that Aaron Rodgers made versus the Cowboys?

This fellow seems to conveniently forget that the Red Sox had an 85 year dry spell after their 1918 Series win.

Everyone seems to think the Falcons gonna get beaten badly.
"not getting love" is an understatement! Did people have such low confidence in Seattle before Super Bowl 48?

Cant really blame them. The Patriots have been to the SB several times so people automatically think they will win. Most people who arent Falcons fans probably havent paid much attention to the Falcons this year. We will just have to keep proving them wrong again next week.

I was listening to the Sports Hub a little bit and Dan's mutant looking a$$ was basically trying to say that we have the worse fans. They just want storylines and ish. I wouldn't really sweat it, Bostonians being Bostonians...ATL sports fans don't interact with Boston sports fans much but y'all are about to get a dose of that New England snark and find out why they're so insufferable. They make New Yorkers and Philadelphians look tame in comparison.

Anyway, most callers in Boston feel that they got this in the bag but I feel ATL will pull this out because New England they have the Golden Boy and Albert Einstein coaching. They feel that if they take away Julio and the big play, lol. The Falcons are deadly when Julio has what looks like a sub-par game...they still put up points.

I'm going to go ahead and call this one for the Falcons by 10. We've got the big mo going our way.

I love just about everything in Boston except for their sports fans. For example, the Boston Red Sox are not the only baseball team with a long and rich history. Hell, the Braves, as a franchise, are even older!

Only way I see the Falcons losing this game is if Matt Ryan doesn't handle the Super Bowl pressure well. I firmly believe we are more talented than the Pats.

QB: Tossup. Brady is "better" and more experienced, but both are about equal this season
Running Backs: Advantage Falcons. Although don't sleep on Blount and Lewis
Wide Receivers: Advantage Falcons. Jones is better than Brown, but even if Belichick neutralizes Jones, Sanu and Gabriel can still make plays and better than the other Steelers WRs.
Tight End: Without Gronk, tossup.
Offensive Line: Advantage Falcons. Alex Mack has been huge.
Overall Defense: Obviously Patriots. But the Pats had an easy schedule and they get to play in the AFC East. The starting QBs they faced were jokes. Russell Wilson dominated them.
