Not likely... Schedule is a LOT tougher next season, and the Falcons are getting old, losing major parts and have a LOT of holes to fix. It may be the start of a building (not rebuilding) phase... This was the year to strike.

WOW. Just read the AJC article. That was assumed, but didn't know it was TRUE.
Guess sports isn't whats really important in Atlanta



BTW: A Niners fan stabbed a Falcons fan in the throat tonight after leaving the game...
THAT sucks

Don't forget the '91 World Team Tennis Champion Atlanta Thunder(w/Martina Navratilova) defeated the LA Strings(w/Jimmy Connors) in the finals.

Heck, the last NCAA football title was GT back in 1990.

What is with the state's inability to win big games? The Falcons game looked a lot like the UGA loss in the dome.

Of course it has to be my two cities with the crappy sports teams.
