[Darth_Pelican]

This damn trap game has had me worried all day.

[BRHornet45]

sons all jokes aside this isn't going to be easy for the Saints. yes they have completely owned the Falcons since the Brees/Payton era (12-3 record) ... however don't sleep on the Falcons in this game. they have absolutely nothing to play for, but will bring their best game tonight to try and damage the Saints undefeated conference record.

if this wasn't a stupid Thursday night game then I would predict the Saints to win by 3 scores. I'm thinking it will be much closer tonight than most expect.

[The Gemini Method]

Is Pierre Thomas going to be worth a start this week?

[BRHornet45]

hopefully

[Pelicans78]

Is Pierre Thomas going to be worth a start this week?

No unless Ingram is banged up.

[Pelicans78]

If the Saints can start fast, they can put this team away early.

[The Gemini Method]

No unless Ingram is banged up.
He got me 8.5 pts last time against the 49ers...I'm thinking; he'll get 1td at least...in a blowout...hopefully! I'm playing the 10-0 team in my league and I would love nothing more than to be the one who clips that insufferable Lions fan...

[DeadlyDynasty]

I need Ingram to beast...he's filling in for Shady this week and it was either him or Jonathan Stewart.

[Darth_Pelican]

Sproles is inactive. FML

[DeadlyDynasty]

Sproles is inactive. FML
Sorry dude, but that news kinda helps me

[DeadlyDynasty]

Has Ingram improved in picking up the blitz? If Brees/Payton trust him more there it'll ultimately mean more touches

[Darth_Pelican]

Sorry dude, but that news kinda helps me

It's cool. It wasn't a fantasy football fml. It was another reason we could lose this game fml.

It's been that way for a couple years now. last year one of the dudes in our FF league had a Deion/KFC screenshot as his profile pic:lol

[BRHornet45]

Vegas knows what they are doing with that 9.5 spread.

this game will likely be closer than people think. even I wouldn't put money on this one with that spread. Thursday night games are wildcards.

OK got my dinner and beer. Shit better be entertaining.

[BRHornet45]

Ingram checked in!!!

[BRHornet45]

:lmao what the fuck is that picture of Matt Ryan in the OP?

lol it's real too

[DeadlyDynasty]

ugh...I forgot Chip Douglas is the color commentator tonight

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Didn't start Steven Jackson in place of Shady tonight because he's looked so shitty this season. Lets see if he continues to play like shit.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Even though those are two good runs Jackson looks slow as hell.

[BRHornet45]

bring that shit back. nowhere near being a touchdown.

[Darth_Pelican]

This damn trap game has had me worried all day.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Papa John needs to realize his spina bifida looks terrible on TV

[Holden_Caulfield]

falcons about to dedispell that myth :lol

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Papa John needs to realize his spina bifida looks terrible on TV

Papa John is a faggot jeebotard tbh. For whatever reason large pizza chains have/have had some of the biggest douche bag CEOs ever.

[BRHornet45]

calm down niggas its the opening drives lol

[Holden_Caulfield]

who leads the division if saints loses?

[DeadlyDynasty]

I hope Thomas pulls a hammy

[leemajors]

Papa John is a faggot jeebotard tbh. For whatever reason large pizza chains have/have had some of the biggest douche bag CEOs ever.

One of my best friends went to SMU, his roomate dated Papa's daughter their sophomore year. Papa bought her a giant pair of fake tits that year.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Ingram poaching time

[HI-FI]

Didn't start Steven Jackson in place of Shady tonight because he's looked so shitty this season. Lets see if he continues to play like shit.

i almost started him as well but tried to do it as game started, so no dice. I hope he doesn't blow it up, he's been a huge bust all year. my other option is Morris at SF and that seems like a tougher matchup, but I could be wrong.

[HI-FI]

note to Falcons.....don't sack Brees and accidentally graze his neck/birthmark, you will get penalized.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Goddamnit, that was Ingram's TD you faggots. That FB dive shit is so fucking gay

[BRHornet45]

note to Falcons.....don't sack Brees and accidentally graze his neck/birthmark, you will get penalized.

bitter little bitch.

lol Cap

[BRHornet45]

who leads the division if saints loses?

Saints still would because they are undefeated in conference. Panthers have 2 conference losses.

[HI-FI]

bitter little bitch.

lol Cap

hypocritical little bitch.

lol winning on the road.

[BRHornet45]

hypocritical little bitch.

lol winning on the road.

lol trash team

The King just moved into the top 5 all time in passing yards.

I took Jackson out since I'd rather have the rest of the week to chose between Rainey and Chris Ogawhatever than be locked in with Jackson. Might end up being really stupid but they both were much better than Jackson last week.

[HI-FI]

lol trash team
lol trash fans
lol faggot city

SF is full of faggots but still much better than that silverback swamp.

[BRHornet45]

SF is full of faggots but still much better than that silverback swamp.

[HI-FI]

omg. you gotta be fistfucking me. is this another year to work the Katrina angle?

[DeadlyDynasty]

Holy shit what a missed call

[resistanze]

WWE sons!

[DeadlyDynasty]

That was like the E. Honda slap

[DPG21920]

Jimmy looks bad still. He is moving like a robot, no burst and they just use him as a decoy in the RZ now.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

omg. you gotta be fistfucking me. is this another year to work the Katrina angle?

I was kinda hoping they'd work the Boston bomber angle with New England this year but the fucking Red Sox winning it all made it so the NFL would look retarded trying to pimp that story :lol

[BRHornet45]

don't worry ... refs already pushed the Falcons down the field twice. once on the first possession they called a roughing the passer and now on this possession a very questionable pass interference call that resulted in 31 yards.

[HI-FI]

BRHypocrite45, grinning at his poster of Goodell right now.

[BRHornet45]

BRHypocrite45, grinning at his poster of Goodell right now.

he looks fine son. teams have just adjusted to him.

[HI-FI]

I was kinda hoping they'd work the Boston bomber angle with New England this year but the fucking Red Sox winning it all made it so the NFL would look retarded trying to pimp that story :lol

as soon as the Ravens had the whole story of "let's send Ray off in fashion" and "let's send Art Modell's soul off in fashion", I knew Niners were doomed.

[BRHornet45]

HI-FI all of a sudden became a 49ers fan the year they went to the Super Bowl.

[DPG21920]

he looks fine son. teams have just adjusted to him.

Nah. He looks significantly less explosive. You can't adjust to him. Just like Megatron, true stars are impossible to stop for entire games and they don't become decoys. He's not even close to healthy. Looks 65%.

[HI-FI]

lol "overnight" 49er fan HI-FI just making shit up.

half nigga please, I was a fan as long as I remember, from the Bay Area son.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

as soon as the Ravens had the whole story of "let's send Ray off in fashion" and "let's send Art Modell's soul off in fashion", I knew Niners were doomed.
Truth bombs. Ray Lewis was fucking smart. He remembered the treatment Pittsburgh got in 2005 after Jerome Bettis announced he'd be retiring (the year his hometown was hosting the SB) and he knew announcing his retirement after coming back from an injury everyone thought ended his season would get Baltimore great ref treatment.

Favre fucked up not announcing his retirement in 2009. The Saints/Vikings game was close and could have easily been fixed by the refs.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Yes, keep feeding Ingram...

[DPG21920]

:lol Jinx worked. Fantasy!

[BRHornet45]

excellent pass and Graham straight carrying niggas as usual!!

[Darth_Pelican]

Jimmy looks bad still. He is moving like a robot, no burst and they just use him as a decoy in the RZ now.

He's ok imo

[BRHornet45]

Nah. He looks significantly less explosive. You can't adjust to him. Just like Megatron, true stars are impossible to stop for entire games and they don't become decoys. He's not even close to healthy. Looks 65%.

no he doesn't lol

[DeadlyDynasty]

Tha U

[resistanze]

Should be a flag for destroying the uprights :lol

[DPG21920]

Det Goalpost son :wow

[DPG21920]

Sons, I have Kang Jimmy and Gonzales. Needed to motivate Jimmy a lil bit..

[BRHornet45]

tear their dumpy ass dome up Jimmy!

[Darth_Pelican]

Sons, I have Kang Jimmy and Gonzales. Needed to motivate Jimmy a lil bit..

Your prediction of the PI on the last play of the game Monday would have been legendary. The refs ruined it

[DeadlyDynasty]

$100 says that goalpost-dunking celebration is banned soon

[DPG21920]

Your prediction of the PI on the last play of the game Monday would have been legendary. The refs ruined it

Man - that would have been scary..

[DeadlyDynasty]

Alex Flanagan looks like she has a fixed facial expression

[BRHornet45]

Defense looking like shit so far

[DPG21920]

The wood. Was laid.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Stupid, you can't take shots at a player's head...well, in theory

[DPG21920]

Tony Gonzales looks done. He's just a decoy now. Looks 65%

[Darth_Pelican]

Defense looking like shit so far

Every completed pass is against Corey White, Greer's replacement

[DeadlyDynasty]

Tony Gonzales looks done. He's just a decoy now. Looks 65%
:lolYou're a walking Bud Light commercial

[BRHornet45]

Hold em to a field goal here and still plenty of time to put more points on the board before halftime

[DeadlyDynasty]

pussy

[BRHornet45]

Wow Matt has no balls... He had a legit chance of scoring there. Pussy

[Pelicans78]

Hopefully Sweeting can do better than Corey White who's still in nickel back mode.

[Pelicans78]

Wow Matt has no balls... He had a legit chance of scoring there. Pussy

I think he would have gotten crushed if he tried.

[DPG21920]

Tony Gonzales is especially bad in the 2nd half. Age just caught up to him. His legs give out and he loses most of his energy.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Ryan remembered it's open season on him tonight, so wisely got down.

[Holden_Caulfield]

:monkey

[BRHornet45]

Brees should monkeyball more often

[BRHornet45]

hold on to the damn ball white boy

[DeadlyDynasty]

Matt Ryan has Geno Smith-like pocket presence tonight

[BRHornet45]

should have been a damn pick

[BRHornet45]

this is why I love Payton ... he doesn't cuckold down and just kneel the ball before the half.

Saints are only up by 1 point and have to kickoff at halftime.

[BRHornet45]

oh well ... that would have been damn near a 60 yard kick anyways

[DPG21920]

Why would you throw down the middle of the field there?

[DeadlyDynasty]

If I'm the Saints, I figure out a way to get Ingram more involved in the 2nd half.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Brees is on pace for over 300 yds and 4 TDs--why are they blowing the Falcons D right now?

son with the exception of the final Falcons possession, the Saints defense has looked shitty tonight. hopefully Rob gets them straight. we are missing Greer.

[DPG21920]

Here is where we see the sad end of the legendary Tony G. Just hard to watch him struggle like this.

[BRHornet45]

Here is where we see the sad end of the legendary Tony G. Just hard to watch him struggle like this.

I hate to see him stick around too long. like Jerry Rice ... I know at this point it's all about stat padding and the possibility of winning the Super Bowl, but I hate seeing all time greats in their final years.

[DPG21920]

BR with the assist. Preciate ya brah

[BRHornet45]

take that bitch down again

[BRHornet45]

BR with the assist. Preciate ya brah

ain't no thing

FEED INGRAM...I need Thomas to suffer a mild concussion

[BRHornet45]

damnit

[BRHornet45]

FEED INGRAM...I need Thomas to suffer a mild concussion

I just knew they were going to run him up the middle right there.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Would it kill the Saints to run on 3rd and 1?

[BRHornet45]

what's your deal with Ingram btw? fantasy football or something? I haven't been paying attention to your reason.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Yup, Ingram's my bye week fill-in for Shady McCoy.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Your prediction of the PI on the last play of the game Monday would have been legendary. The refs ruined it

:lmao STILL butthurt

[DeadlyDynasty]

How did that TE not get the first there?

[DPG21920]

Wow

[Robz4000]

:lol

[DeadlyDynasty]

Wtf was that gunner doing?:lmao

[BRHornet45]

lol at the announcer "it was right at him" ... while the replay shows the receiver having to turn backwards to try and catch the ball.

it wasn't a bad throw by any means, but it definitely wasn't a good one. I get annoyed when announcers throw the receivers under the bus like that.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Those last 3 plays (ST's gaffe included) are what losing, rerrible teams do. I'd know.

[BRHornet45]

alright enough of the grab assing Saints gotta put this game away.

[BRHornet45]

hell of a run Thomas!

[DeadlyDynasty]

wtf is this SHIT?

[BRHornet45]

Jimmy Jimmy Graham yall!!1

[DeadlyDynasty]

No reason for empty backfield on 2nd and 6

[BRHornet45]

back to back dropped passes ... they are determined to keep this shit close

i hope gabbust start or stanzi, anyone but henne :cry :cry :cry

[DeadlyDynasty]

I feel kinda bad for Arthur Blank ( even though he's a billionaire). I like owners that try to win, regardless of their shitty, apathetic fanbases

They called him Checkdown Chad down here

[DeadlyDynasty]

That was pathetic, Atlanta

[BRHornet45]

Thomas doing a damn good job of taking over the role of Sproles tonight.

[DeadlyDynasty]

One more first down away from making Atlanta quit, like they do every week.

[Holden_Caulfield]

matty ice earn your nickname bro

[BRHornet45]

defense!

[Holden_Caulfield]

lol jags are determined :lol. seriously how are they gonna :downspin:that shitty game

[DeadlyDynasty]

I called the Under right...hopefully ATL doesn't give up another TD (unless it's to Ingram) and I got the spread, too.

[Fabbs]

Stupid assed play call on 1st down.
Have a 1.5 second release route available.

[BRHornet45]

ridiculous

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

LETS GO ATL

Nice catch.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Nice lateral move by SJ

[DPG21920]

:lol Bodies errrwhere

[resistanze]

4 down territory

[BRHornet45]

I think they should kick the field goal

[resistanze]

WTF?

[BRHornet45]

they can stop the clock 4 times and Saints will have to run at least one play before the 2 min warning.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Fuck Atlanta sucking

[DeadlyDynasty]

Payton with the goods:lol

[DPG21920]

Ya - I have to agree with this move. 3 timeouts, 2 min warning and now a FG wins it if you make this.

[BRHornet45]

yea I mean real talk if I'm the coach I'm kicking the field goal here.

[DeadlyDynasty]

He'll miss it

[resistanze]

:lol

[BRHornet45]

lolzzzzzz Payton's bitch move worked

[Holden_Caulfield]

yea I mean real talk if I'm the coach I'm kicking the field goal here.
thats why youre not a coach :lol

[Darth_Pelican]

:lmao

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

That's why you are 2-8 you garbage ass fuckers. Why the fuck would you even kick it there?

[resistanze]

Hoping to kick a 50 yarder + holding Brees to a 3 and out? I can't see myself trying that.

[DeadlyDynasty]

Good win by the Saints...trap, rivalry game and the W is all that matters. Sets up a sick game next week

[Darth_Pelican]

Still need a first down to ice it

[BRHornet45]

thats why youre not a coach :lol

multiple people on here agreed. it was the right decision.

funny how you waited until AFTER the kick to post that.

even with him missing the kick it was the right call.

[Darth_Pelican]

Good win by the Saints...trap, rivalry game and the W is all that matters. Sets up a sick game next week

this shit ain't over ... Saints gotta convert

[Holden_Caulfield]

funny how you waited until AFTER the kick to post that.

even with him missing the kick it was the right call.

regardless if you make it or not you still have to stop the saints. not a good decision.

[DeadlyDynasty]

wtf is wrong with these refs?

[Holden_Caulfield]

damn thats a tough home run stretch for the saints, those are good defenses.

[DeadlyDynasty]

:lolLakerHater, can I get a .gif of that Raisinet?

[Holden_Caulfield]

still cant believe the saints lost to geno :lmao :lmao

[BRHornet45]

fuck these Thursday night games

[Darth_Pelican]

Survived the trap game and now get the extra rest for Seattle.

[BRHornet45]

like I said Vegas knows what they are doing. especially with these Thursday night bullshit games.

if this had been a regular Sunday or Monday game then the Saints absolutely cover the 9.5 spread ... but Thursday night anything goes.

[BRHornet45]

fuck these Thursday night games

and they want to add a second!

[tlongII]

Looking forward to the Saints coming to Seattle. We'll see how good Brees is then. It's gonna be LOUD!
