Falcons: Congrats Roddy White...

[Jesus]

On your 6th consecutive 1000 yard season. That's some kind of franchise record.

Julio is on the cusp with 883 yards

TG sits at 779

Good shot at 3 1000 yard receivers.

Too bad Turner hit that wall this year or we could have added a 1000 yard rusher to the mix.

Then again the last Super Bowl winner with a 1000 yard rusher?
Giants in 2007. Of the last 10 super bowl winners only 5 of them had 1000 yard rushers.

Turner is horrrible. Definitely need a new RB this offseason

I'm old enough to remember when we had 3 receivers with a 1000 yard seasons and a running back with a 1000 yard season all in the same year. I know who all four guys were. Without using a search engine let's see if anyone else can remember who those four guys were.

So if you're talking about being old then I'm guessing it was during the Steve Bartkowski era which was before I was even on this planet. But knowing my Falcons history as much as I do I'll go with Alfred Jackson, William Andrews, Wallace Francis, Billy "White Shoes" Johnson?

Mathis
Metcalf
Emanuel
Heyward

Jeffy George bringing it all together

All that fire power still finished 9-7

That awful run and shoot. Nothing more than padding stats. Of course one of the leagues worst defenses didn't help.

Yep.
