FIRST PLACE BABY!!!!

And don't give me this tiebreaker noise.....tiebreaker ONLY activates once the season is complete. There is no such thing as a tiebreaker after week 12.

Here are the two things I know for a fact:

1. We have the best record in the NFC South..no one has a better record than us.
2. If we win all of our remaining games, we are in the playoffs.

That, my friends, is first place. :9:

By the way, I live in Atlanta and my friends are losing their minds trying to explain to me about tiebreaker and why we aren't in first. :rant:
 
The Falcons also control their own destiny....could not be in finer hands, mwhahahahaha!!!

We're not in first place. You're being delusional.
 
Right now, if the season were over, we'd be on the outside looking in, and the failclowns would host a playoff game.

That's just the way it is.

We're not in first.

I do believe that we will be when all is said and done, but for four weeks, you've been wrong.

Just sayin'.

I am all about being fired up when we are still in it despite a very subpar season overall; however you can not say that we are in first place because we are not. You can not say "ignore the reason why we are not in first place at the moment and pretend that we are." The tie breaker does apply now as far as ranking go and as of right now we are in second place. Also we do not have the best record in the South. Atl has not lost a division game yet and they are 4-0, we are 2-1. I think we will pull the division out, but right now we are in second place. It is what it is.

But the season isn't over.

But no point arguing over technicalities I guess.

Let's beat Carolina and watch Atlanta get embarrassed by Green Bay, then we don't have to worry about it any more. :9:

This ^ , Let's revive the dominance at the Dome.
 
I get it and am obviously being tongue in cheek.

However, tiebreakers DO NOT exist until the season is complete.

Check out the verbiage from the 2014 NFL rule book......

TO BREAK A TIE WITHIN A DIVISION

If, at the end of the regular season, :9: two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined

Therefore, as of today, we are in first place. Suck it Falcons (they are also in first, but not solely).

More like the top of a gently rolling hill looking at the nice mountainous view all around us...
 
Exactly right. We are tied for first place in the NFC South. That's it. Tiebreakers are for the end of season. That's it. I don't really care about any of this "what if the season ended today" crap the media loves to talk about. It's all silliness.
 
It's equally silly to say we're in first place when we're actually in second place.
