NFL 2017 NFL - Wild Card Weekend

[CURVE]

I think we are 11-0 when we have scored more than twenty this season.

 

[Blacky]

With a 25 point lead yep. Not behind in the 4th quarter.

Just wanted to bring it up

Ballsy call with a green kicker

 

[kaiserchief13]

So the Rams and Goff are pretenders as many suspected.

 

[samFFC]

Falcons stars have been absolutely top shelf today.

Yup. 100%.

Their keys to the game:
1. Keep Rams offense off the field - TOP 36 mins to 18 mins
2. Hold the Rams D-line at bay - only 3 sacks (equal to what they've done on Goff)
3. Put up 25+ points - check.
4. Play good fundamentals - ST turnover, excellent FG kicking, even distribution of output - check.

Many?

I think that's the idea. If that's an incompletion they are worried they come away with nothing. Get a few yards and get the points.
But at this stage of the game they need 7s so I think it was too conservative.

Lack of experience has cost them. Doesn’t take away from an excellent season.

Nah. Falcons are strong. Watch out Philly!

Think of Eagles would have preferred Panthers, can’t see them scoring much against Falcons.

 

[kaiserchief13]

Many?

Look how many picked Falcons to win

Nah Eagles match up well vs Falcons and Vikings which are their likely opponents to get to superbowl

 

[pjcrows]

11. Out of 50.

 

[samFFC]

Look how many picked Falcons to win

20%?
Similar amongst the 'experts'.
For a team that's the reigning NFC champion that's not many.

 

[aussiedude]

Look how many picked Falcons to win

a couple of uncharacteristic mistakes doesnt make a team a pretender.

Foles will struggle against both those defences.

All would prefer Panthers haha.
But I think Eagles would prefer Falcons to Rams.

 

[samFFC]

Falcons challenge?

 

[samFFC]

Falcons challenge?

Too slow bro.
Why not do it immediately? If they win it's over. They don't need the 3rd timeout.

Not without Wentz

 

[pjcrows]

No catch

 

[juice t]

Incomplete

 

[samFFC]

Go for 2, so they are within 8 if the Falcons get a FG.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

No catch

 

[kaiserchief13]

Eagles beat Vikings last year when they were 5-0 and beat Falcons last year when they went to superbowl even when Eagles went 7-9

 

[Stuxnet]

What the ****
Go for two

Can you tell me why they didnt?
