The Majesty of Atlanta Falcons Football

[GAVol]

I love listening to the radio down here. you could take the commentators quotes from one year, compare them to the next, and see they are 99% the same, and they never see it coming.

last year they said there was no reason to start Cousins or Penix in the preseason. offense, new offense, will run smoothly. what do they get? game 1 where the offense is out of sorts.

this year there was no reason to start Penix in the preseason. he new the offense, nothing to gain, offense would run smoothly, every player better. what do they get? game 1 where the offense is out of sorts.

last year they wanted the kicker gone, said the whole off season he needed to be gone. when it was announced Koo had the job, they were settled in and happy with the coaches decision. game 1, they want him gone again. shocked he was so bad.

The cycle of insanity is unbelievable. I get disgusted every September when I actually give them a game or two of attention and realize I’m wasting my time . . . Again.

I am not a fan, so I don't care one way or the other about the team. I just get a chuckle listening to the media do a 360 in real time.

preseason:
We addressed our needs in these ways, its going to be better. We have coaches who know what they are doing, and they will make the necessary changes. Any holes we do have will be covered up by doing X, Y, Z. We should definitely go to the playoffs and maybe even win our division.
Season:
We didn't address our needs. Its not getting better. Our coaches don't know what they are doing, and aren't making then necessary changes. We can't cover up a hole. We aren't going to the playoffs.
Post season:
they went out and made some changes. not the changes we wanted to see, or what the team needs, but they added some nice pieces. maybe they needed LB help, but they added a 4th WR, and 2nd Safety.
Pre Draft:
they need these positions, lets just say OL.
Draft:
well they didn't get OL, but they got TE, which is really going to help the OL because reasons.
Preseason:
we addressed all our needs....

wash rinse repeat

I get injuries, especially when stacked at one position, kill a team. but there doesn't seem any real foundational changes to be proactive about anything.
