I'm enjoying it all the way to the Super Bowl. There's no more debates. Atlanta is indeed the NFL's best offense. Matt Ryan does indeed look brilliant and redefined prolific.
Give it up for the high flying Atlanta Falcons and NFL MVP Matt Ryan for a great season regardless of who you are pulling for Sunday.

Nope. The Patriots.

LOL, he is one of the best when the game is on the line. He has never had enough talent around him to make a deep run into the postseason, he has been a victim of a crappy defense for most of his career.

Matty Ice can't get it done when it matters.

The Falcons are arguably the strongest offense in the NFL and Matt Ryan doesn't get the appreciation he deserves, he is a top 10 QB without question and he is one of the best under pressure in game winning situations, just like we saw yesterday he is brilliant at leading game winning drives. They also have good weapons around him now, Freeman and Coleman are a good RB duo and the receiving corps is good, Sanu was a terrific offseason pickup. Also don't underestimate the improved offensive line, signing Alex Mack and the extreme improvement of top draft pick Jake Matthews has been key

Back on top again and in 1st place in NFC South Woo hoo. A victory over Tampa Bay on Thursday would give the Falcons a tiny bit of breathing space in the division. They were screwed in Seattle and slightly less harder against San Diego so they should have at least 1 more win. If Atlanta had even a mediocre defense I would be eager for the playoffs but they have a pretty crappy defense so..

Why do people think Matt Ryan is a lousy weak armed QB? I never understood why even some Atlanta fans give him no respect. No respect at all I tells ya.

The mighty Atlanta Falcons have the best offense in the NFL.
May be or it can be ascertained better when they meet Seahawks next, the team with best defense.

S+P=B+C -> sip pepsi be cool

The Falcons sure do look good.
As to your title of best offense, it could be based on yards, points or getting enough on the scoreboard to win.
Falcons
Steelers
Raiders
Chargers
Cowboys
All those teams appear to be in the conversation.
I'm glad the Falcons are playing good, but they did start last year 5-0, so let's not be hoisting the Lombardi just yet.
"What's in those things Bert?".."A few household items in the proper proportions."

What was ATL last year, 5-0 to start the season? And didn't they finish the year 0-5? Put down the Viagra for now; it's a long season.
Edit: I guess it wasn't such a bad ending. 2-6 for the second half.
Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe f_uck yourself.

I'm an Atlanta fan I better enjoy it while I can.
I'm not being cocky just happy the team seems to have righted itself even if it's temporarily. Although they look a LOT more for real offensively this year than they have in a while. Very balanced and they added a much needed center and gave Matt Ryan several legitimate options to throw to besides Julio Jones. After Cam Newton's insane year in 2015 and the Falcon's collapse in the 2nd part of the season it's great to have hope.
Now if they will get rid of Thomas Dimitroff and his penchant for making horrible draft picks, the team might be worthy of the new bazillion dollar stadium.

I'd hold off on the cockiness if I were you.
They got off to a better start last season. I forget how that ended but I don't remember seeing them in the playoffs.

Oh yeah. I forgot to point out Atlanta now has beaten both teams from last years Super Bowl. No other team has done that this year.

Nobody hated Joe Montana.
And like the other guy said Louigi.I mean
Xe
louigi.Bryce Harper is hated.
Keep telling yourself it's just racism though. Like I said racism totally explains why Russel Wilson is so hated. Or Maybe it has something to do with Russel not being a cocky, showboating, trash talking ass?

First of all dumbass, I am not this Luigi person, and I am not NTDT either. I do not have a sock puppet account.
It has lots of to with racism, if Cam Newton were white he would not get this much hate. His personality does make him an easy target for hate but you can't deny racism plays a role.
Brady is hates because of jealousy, he has had more success than anyone and people are going to hate anyone that has won 4 Super Bowls.

Tim Tebow and Johnny Manziel get at least as much hate as Newton.
It has nothing to do with race and everything to do with Newton's behavior. Guys like Louigi kill me. Cam did his dance all last season, he made commercials that were a slap in the face to anyone who doesn't like his showboating, then they turn around and blame the reaction he gets on racism.
It's just dumb.
Tom Brady is one of the most disliked players in the NFL, if not the most disliked. Yet.he's white. It's almost like one's behavior has something to do with how one is perceived.

For the most part the two "cockiest" positions in football are WR and it's defensive counterpart DB. You really don't see white guys excelling at either position to the degree that you see black guys so it's hard to find white guys talking as much smack that fans are aware of. I'm sure if there was a white guy that was constantly running his mouth just as many people would hate him as they do the Sherman's et al. To use baseball as an example, Bryce Harper is loathed by a LOT of baseball fans because he's a cocky loudmouth. Last time I looked he was white.

It's really weird how you and Louigi think so much alike
Xe
louigi.
And don't sell Cam short, sure he's cocky.it's true that he had that Auburn payment scandal.nobody denies that he showboats..or that he pouts if things don't go his way..hell..he pouted like a child after losing.nobody's arguing against any of that.
.but he also ran away from a fumble in a one score SB and cost his team any chance they had at winning.
You're an idiot Luigi. The league is mostly black .most pro athletes are blackyet Newton is incredibly disliked.
It has nothing to do with race and everything to do with him being a douche and his attitude.
Yeah, some people don't like Lebron, some people don't like Sherman, but that's true of any athlete.
You go around making "too bad they don't make band aids for feelings" commercials then pout like a baby after losing the SB you're going to get laughed at and people aren't going to like you very much.
Other than Last year Newton has been a pretty average QB. Last year he had a great season up until the Broncos beat him down.
This year? He's just a "turnover machine".
You've already given up on the Panther's season so I don't get why you're so defensive lol. Oh, I'm sorry.I mean Louigi has already given up on the Panther's season. I keep forgetting that you and he are two totally different people.

Russell Wilson doesn't get hate because he isn't cocky. Cocky black athletes are hated, and tons of people hate Lebron and Richard Sherman. There is a hateful undercurrent with certain white people about black athletes that have that cocky swagger, a feeling of "that cocky black thug needs to shut up and know his place". Granted, Newton can be easy to dislike with his showboating, his payment scandal at Auburn and his loud talking before Super Bowl 50 but then walking off and not saying anything afterwards made him look like a sore loser ( although I don't really think that's a bad thing ), but all cocky black athletes get way more backlash than their cocky white counterparts because of racism

Yeah, people really hate Lebron, Jordan, Richard Sherman, Curry. You know, successful cocky black guys?
It has nothing to do with Newton's attitude
It's all just racism. That's why everyone hates Russel Wilson.
Yup.

Yes, Cam drew so much criticism last season (most of it, I confess, totally justified) that it was easy to miss who was legitimately against him like you, and who only hated him because he's a successful and cocky black kid. You know that unfortunately we do get this kind of poster here. Since I otherwise always liked your posts, I was a bit confused so now it's reassuring to know that you hate Cam for good reason.

Falcons fan and Georgia Bulldog alumnus. Double dose of Cam hatred. I'm sure I had mentioned both on here but it's easy to miss posts.

With Brady back, the Patriots might snatch this title out of the Falcons' hands.
Oh, now I understand why you bash Cam Newton so much. You're a Falcons fan. Somehow I never realized it.
I like you, pankoeken. You write up smart posts, but I was getting a bit baffled by your Newton hatred, and wondering if it had to do with something less savory.
Now, if it's just plain sports rivalry, that's perfectly fine. I'm back to liking your posts.
Anyway, this is your year. After 3 years with the Panthers on top of the NFC South, now it's your turn. I don't see the Panthers recovering the lead anytime soon, with our offensive line and secondary problems, and our banged-up quarterback.

NFL's best offense Atlanta has a nice lead over the super bowl champions. What a difference a year makes, huh?

Exactly, Shanahan is now thriving as OC and the Falcons do have the best offense in the NFL. Matt Ryan has always put up great stats but this year he is especially thriving and the Falcons also have the strongest running game they've had in the Ryan era.
The defense is what has impressed me today, they have been terrific and they are finally showing a pass rush after not having one for a few years
