It looks like Matty Ice is melting in the Phoenix heat. If Flacco plays this poorly tomorrow the Steelers will be doing cartwheels since they'll be playing the Dolphins instead of the Colts.

He's done okay considering he's a rookie QB on the road. Cardinals special teams did really good backing the Falcons deep in their own territory. Cardinals defense made plays too.

Matt Ryan is to blame for this loss(if it happens). Just plain rookie mistakes. The safety shouldn't have happened, hell it would have been a good play if he would've gotten rid of it. Turner is obviously affected mby the death of his grandmother, and Berry has been playing very well. If they don't score here, it's over. I really hope they do, not just as a Falcons fan, but so Zorak will shut the fuck up.

TOUCHDOWN FALCONS!

Falcons are down by only 6.

Game On?

[sahyder1]

This one is not over folks.

[Red Devil-Taker316]

Great drive by Atlanta. A lot of poise by Ryan.

I think Arizona has to pound the ball into James and try to kill as much clock as possible.

EDIT: Atlanta's defense really needs to step it up and allow Matt Ryan and the offense a chance to win the game.

Forget Eyan this secondary has been horrible today.

The tension.

Why the hell did they leave that guy wide open? Fail.

It is now. That's inexcusable on 3rd and long.

It's over, Brooking's fault. I have no idea why he did that.

How Collinswirth is still a commentator, I will never know.

Awful defense by Atlanta. How you let a 3rd and 16 convert like that in the biggest moment of your season is inexplicable.

I believe the Cardinals have won?

[sahyder1]

0 for 1. Stupid secondary. Got outplayed from the first snap.

[Zorak]

CARDINALS WIN! CARDINALS WIN!

Can't believe it. I predicted them but only for the simple fact nobody else did. Surprised the hell out of me but eh, I knew they could do it. Too bad they ain't lasting in Round 2.

[Slogger]

The D just killed Ryan's chance to be a last possession hero.

[gunnar hendershow]

I'm saying the blame for this belongs on the Falcons defense. They blew the chance to get the ball back.

[Pepsi]

Falcons have been pretty terrible on the road this season so I can't say I'm shocked. I think the Falcons will will be back next year though whereas The Cardinals probably won't so if I was a Falcons fan I wouldn't be too disheartened.

[Red Devil-Taker316]

Tremendous year for the Falcons overall. Their future is quite bright as well. Good for Warner as well.

0-1 so far, that's what I get for backing a rookie QB on the road with an awful defense.

I'm stoked for this Indy-SD game though. I took Indy here.

If I were a Falcons fan I'd be grateful that my team even made the playoffs

[naiwf]

I'll say it now, but I don't expect Atlanta to make the playoffs next year. The NFL is too fluid to predict that a team will be as good as they were from year to year. The Cowboys and Pats both missed the postseason this year even though they were the #1's last year. That defense was exposed today and with guys like Milloy getting older and their division being one of the best in the league I think they'll revert back to a 7-9 win team that just misses out on the 6th seed.

To be fair with the Patriots, they didn't have their franchise QB Tom Brady whilst Dallas had everybody they had from a year ago along with Roy Williams, Zach Thomas, Felix Jones, and Tashard Choice. Plus, I'll go out and say the Patriots deserve to be in the postseason more than the Dolphins. Barely missed out because of the NFL's shitty playoff system.

Fixed that for ya. Having the same record and splitting the series 1-1 in the season, means the Dolphins earned it just as much as New England.
