Falcons @ Panthers

[gamersfuel]

Know there are not many NFL fans around here but i think the Falcons need a coaching change. If Smith hasnt gotten anything done in his time so far i dont see anything changing anytime soon. The schemes on both side of the ball are not going to do any damage in the playoffs at all.

Julio has a big day, beats Scam Newton.

Karma is served.

It was good to see Julio have a great day, especially after last weeks game. I know it had to feel good for him. And it was definitely a plus that they beat Carolina.

2011 8-5

Regular Season 41-20
Playoffs 0-2
Overall 41-22

The playoff losses were to the Cardinals team that played in the Super Bowl and the Packers team that won the Super Bowl. I can't see the Falcons making a coaching change anytime soon. I think Smith has done well considering that the Falcons are in a conference with Aaron Rodgers and they also have to play Drew Brees twice a year.

I don't think the coach is the problem but I know they have the most overrated QB in the NFL. Ryan is looked upon by the analyst as "Matty Ice" but to me I've yet to see anything other than in big time games and big time situations he melts like ice cream on a hot August day.

I'm glad to know that I'm not the only person who thinks Matt Ryan is overrated. I like the guy, but he has accuracy issues and isn't very good on the road. I would rather have him than most of the quarterbacks in the NFL, but it's pretty easy to find at least 10-12 who are better.

He isnt their only issue. They need defensive help pretty much every where and offensive line help here n there. Hopefully Mike Johnson can come back healthy and help them out on the oline but the defense will need to draft some serious help. The only problem with that is the fact they gave up so much to Julio, though Im seriously glad he is there

I agree. They need help in the secondary and the offensive line doesn't pass protect very well at times. I haven't seen the Falcons in the second half of the season, but Ryan was getting killed in the first several games.

The Falcons main problem is they put WAY too much money in to a running back. The O-line and defense has suffered as a result and we have a RB who is a little bit above average.
