Darn, that's exactly what I feared, not getting anything out of the first drive in second half, and now the Eagles have good field position and could take the lead again.

10-9. I be scared if I were an Eagles fan. Maybe you're speaking with your tongue in your cheek again, hard to know without an icon. But I think the Eagles fans have reasons to be optimistic. They made no fewer than 5 mistakes (four fumbles, one missed PAT), two of them being TOs, and ended up only 1 point behind. They do have the home field advantage and Atlanta is not a great fourth quarter team, if I remember well, gulp, the last Super Bowl... As a Falcons fan I'd have felt a lot more comfortable if we had taken better advantage of the Eagles' mistakes, coming out of the first half with say, 10 points ahead. As it is, this game is a toss-up and they are more resilient than I expected. They are also more rested so maybe will be physically better than us in the second half. I'm the one scared, right now. Only one point ahead in the first half was frustrating. I'm serious. Having Kai Forbath as a kicker has made me fear the dreaded one point loss.

Goddamn it Falcons, way to go 3 and out. I’m getting very nervous now, Sark’s playing calling isn’t good today, and we can’t block, having 2 inexperienced guards, Levitre being out hurts.

We really, really need to score now, this drive, or this thing will start to get sour.

Nice shout out from Al Michaels to screen legend Sylvester Stallone!

Darn. We aren't doing anything on offense any longer. Another failed drive. This is getting tough.

Neither team is making me nervous as a Vikings fan. Not exactly a barn burner. Right now I'm worried about the Saints. Started getting nervous yesterday.

Shit, another drives stalls at midfield. This is really getting fucking irritating. Call better plays Sark, more medium range passes, that’s where we’ve had the most success, get Hooper and Gabriel more involved, stop throwing deep so much with the wind being so severe.

Tremendous sack by the Eagles sends Matt Ryan backwards.

Dull game. Don't want to see either team next week.

It's not going well. I'm starting to think that we'll lose. Our offensive line isn't holding, and their running game has been good. To make it worse, Foles is playing better, now.

Hard running on the Falcons defense. Eagles knocking on the door ...

Falcons need smart play calling. Couldn’t agree more, Sark is a shitty play caller. He’s limited such an explosive offense.

I think it's now or never for the Falcons.
