A Year Ago...

The Atlanta Falcons have come a long way, but there are some unsung heroes of the team and some stories you might have missed. One year ago (actually some of these go MANY years back)....

• Michael Jenkins was a bust and the Falcons receiving core was a disaster.
  
• The offensive line couldn't block... well, me even. As one analyst says, "they were a turnstile."
• Last Year, the offensive line had Wiener and McClure and a bunch of no-names.
  
• Lawyer Malloy & Keith Brooking were already wondering who stole their food from the retirement home. Their play on the field looked "OLD"
• With no offensive line, Warrick Dunn couldn't make the moves that he had left.
• Our Kicker was older than most of the owners in the NFL
• Every game required the obligatory MV reference.
• It was tough to be a Falcon fan... Falcon Fans got sympathy
  

THIS YEAR...

• The Falcons are near the league leaders in caught balls (or dead last in Dropped passes)
• Roddy is a pro-bowler and Michael Jenkins has turned into an excellent deep threat and possession receiver.
• The offensive line is nasty and frankly almost a strength.
  
• The offensive line has Wiener and McClure and a bunch of no names.
  
• Lawyer Malloy is playing very well and Keith Brooking is not back to probowl form, but definitely making his presence felt.
• Michael Turner doesn't need to juke, he just runs over the defense.
• Our kicker is now only older than everyone on the team
• Every game almost requires MV - P discussions for Michael Turner and Matt Ryan
• It's great to be a Falcon Fan!
