Shush….it’s absolutely ridiculous that any fan base ever tries to compare themselves to being Browns fans. Just stop….you couldn’t last 2 games being a Browns fan!!

True, the Falcons have been to Super Bowl. They just can’t protect a 28-3 lead.

With the exception of Vick dogfighting, it's all their own fault for that stuff not a curse. Everybody said Pearce was crazy and they took a chance. "The tiger ain't go crazy, it went tiger."

More painful than blowing a 28-3 lead with roughly 18 minutes left in the SB?

Houston Oilers have won a division title more recently than the Cleveland Browns. At least Atlanta has made Super Bowl (2x).

Their biggest rival has God on their side. They will not be allowed to win until The Tribulation. Maybe then God will have a sense of humor and let them win seven Super Bowls, one for each of the world's seven worst years ever.

I feel like there is a difference between cursed and just perennial dogshit though. The Falcons and Bills? Cursed. No matter how good they are, somehow someway they will lose at the end of the day in some agonizing way. The Browns and Jets? Perennial dogshit. They just always suck.

Teams were taking James Pearce Jr off their draft boards due to his behavior and attitude. It's shouldn't have come a surprise.

Hiring Petrino was a bad move? No way. Bobby Petrino was jumping ship less than 6 months into a 10 year contract with Louisville (and after he had a secret meeting with Auburn to replace his old boss, Tommy Tuberville just 1 year into his time at Louisville). It was CLEAR that he was a snake already and they jumped in without hesitation.

I was almost 30 years old before the Falcons had back to back winning seasons

Luckily, they play in a terrible division. Only 2 Super Bowl wins have ever come from the division, with the Panthers and Falcons both losing 2 each. The Saints have 1 Super Bowl but a pitiful history behind it.

I have had this conversation with Browns fans before, and yes, I know the life of a Browns fan is awful, but most Browns fans don't seem to know just how much of a shitshow the Falcons really are.

Dumb Saints fans were jealous of the Falcons over the past two years

They should've given the 2016 staff one more year then cleaned House. Only way to exorcise the demons imo. Instead, they held on to half the staff & have sucked eggs for the last decade.

It's really, really hard to be a Falcons fan. It's hard to imagine being up 25 points in a superbowl ever again
