Though preseason isn't a way to judge how a team will do in the season, it is a way to see how your team's depth stacks up.

From watching the Falcons in preseason, they better pray no one gets injured.

Patriots are stacked with depth and they got their arse kicked by the Lions.

For some reason they anchored that season long thunderdome thread. That was the perfect thread for that cesspool of shitetalking. Now every time either team has a poor play in preseason somebody starts a troll thread.

I asked them to un-anchor it on the Help Board but was ignored. I have no idea why they dropped it, because it was going very well. Since they did that there's been like 10 new threads

Their OL hasn't look good this preseason.

Things like blocking and tackling tend to carry over to the regular season...

Falcons pre-season records:
2011 0-4
2012 1-3
2013 0-3

Nothing to see here

I said earlier that preseason records don't mean much but specific performances mean a lot. If your OL has problems in pass protection and run blocking in the preseason, that will be a problem in regular season. If your corners can't cover in preseason, that will be a problem in regular season.

Yeah it's fun as shite trash talking with falcons fans. It's all in good fun. If only there was a thread for that. Oh wait, there was but it was anchored. I don't know what the mods were thinking.
