After the Saints defeated the Falcons were you impressed or disappointed?

Saints turned the ball over 4 times & needed some great plays & some luck to beat the Falcons. They have a favorable schedule to probably be 10-0 when they face the Patriots. Can they finish 16-0 also & do you think they are bound for the Superbowl?

    Saints I want to win it all truth be spoken, that is if my team is not. And right now that does not look so good. But to answer your question, I was more impressed with the falcons. And their strong constitution to fight back tooth and nails. Against a team that they, and everyone else knew was the better team. Saints win was expected and falcons did not lie down and die like the Giants, just because they were playing the better team.. My choosing of the Saints is merely, because of what they have all been through. The team and fans, just felt they could use a little sunshine in their lives. I saw them crammed in that stadium, how befitting to win a Superbowl. Good Luck !!!!

    Here's the deal ... I have been a devout fan of my Atlanta Falcons since I was a wee liddle tyke and any loss to anyone is a heart breaker for me.

    With that being said ... I was hurt by their loss and quite proud of the fact that they went into enemy territory and played extremely well in a losing effort. That's the first Monday Night game I can remember in my lifetime that my Falcons actually showed up and looked good.

    I hope they don't get there ... I want my Falcons to have the honors ... again. If they do then I think they will play very well win or lose and the city of New Orleans will be champions either way. (smiling) The Saint's are a great team this year but need to shore up that defense.

    Source(s): Yes .. I'm very proud and dissapointed. The Saint's were the better team. They have a better QB and a couple of extra receivers. As you can see ... I lost a bet. (smiling)

    Not impressed or disappointed, this was just something I expected. This Saints teams reminds me very much of how the Patriots win games. The other team will mess up, and so will the Patriots giving the other team a chance to win the team, but they mess up so bad and give the Patriots a chance to score and they just wind up losing. My point is, even though the Saints may mess up and give the other team chances to win, the other team continues to screw up by dropping passes or getting called on easily avoidable penalties at the wrong time, at which point the Saints will continue to execute and end wind up winning the game.

    If you want to beat the Saints, you can't keep shooting yourself in the foot like the Dolphins and Falcons have done when they were so close to beating them. Same thing with the Patriots.

    Not either impressed nor disappointed.

    The Saints played a solid Falcons team at home and I expected them to win and they did.

    I think since they have a soft schedule they go 15-1 with their only loss to the Falcons at the Georgia Dome on the road this year.

    We'll have to wait till the playoffs to see if they're Super Bowl bound. I'm sticking with my preseason pick the Eagles to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.

    The Vikings had an one of the most explosive offenses and one of the greatest regular season teams of all-time going 15-1 in 1998 and fell short in the NFC Championship Game. There's no saying this can't happen since unpredictability always happens in the playoffs

    I think just like in every game there were some ups and downs, but if you like the Saints, then you were more then likely happy I mean a wins a win. If you were going for the Falcons you might be upset, but they actually played a good game and never gave up. Every game and every team, makes mistakes and Drew Breez is not afraid to throw the ball into tight situations so INT's are going to happen.

    Disapointed (I'm a Falcons fan), The Saint's and Falcon's both turned the ball over so much. The defense for both was pretty offbeat

  • 1 decade ago

    They can be 16-0 because they're schedule is so soft and the couple of good teams they do play are home games. I don't know if they are SB bound.

    I wasn't disappointed or impressed. It was about what I expected. They make big plays on offense and defense and are able to cover up their many flaws.

    I was just relieved. In addition to the Pats, they also have the Cowboys, another game with the Falcons, and two games against Carolina, with whom they've never matched up as well as it sometimes looks on paper. Yes, it's possible they'll sweep, but it would be surprising. And with the usual dings and injuries inevitable in an NFL season, it's premature to predict a Super Bowl appearance, but they have at least as good a chance as anybody.

    The Saints convincingly despite playing their worst performance of the season.

    This is the greatest team ever. They will go 19-0.
