Looks like our guys are used to overcoming adversity. Mainly because they always have to, but alot of teams would get down when they have these ugly 14 point swings. With our guys, it's like business as usual.
Even on the road in a tough environment, they don't get down and they never feel like they're out of it.

This is something I like very much about this year's team. They play from behind well - not always winning (but recently they do), but not panicking when things don't start off quite right.

This game started off not so well (if you all can remember the 1st quarter, the fumble ....... the return for a TD). Nevermind all that, they knew that they could do it, and they proved it over and over again.

Hmmm...I wonder who is the head of all this?

Anyway, you say that we play from behind so much. We haven't been down by more than 7 ALL YEAR! That shows a team that has been focused every game this season.

I give McCarthy credit.

Yeah we are accustomed to overcoming adversity with the early injuries to key players and a-rod being hurt a little bit. I think it all has carried over into the postseason and will continue. I don't know about you guys but when we were down to Atlanta today for some reason i wasn't a bit worried. I had a feeling that we would come back strong even with the ball on our own 8 yard line.

Totally agreed. I said to my wife I would start worrying when the Packers were down 21. Never happened.

So when we lose it's MM's fault, but when we win it's only because of the talent we have on the team? WTF?

You want to talk about adversity, the announcers today said we lost 91 games to starters being out. Only three times has that happened before and none of those teams won more than 6 games all year. I'd love to double check those statistics but if that's the case--and it sounds plausible--this is one hell of a team in terms of overcoming adversity.

I can't wait for next week.

I said it before, back in week 4 I had totally given up on them. I was WRONG. I didn't think they would be able to overcome all the injuries no matter how hard they tried.

Tonight after the kick return for a TD and then they drove right down field again, I was excited about their chances. I told my son (in jest now) that I would not mind it if they let another kickoff be returned. That way the GB offense could go back out and pound down the Atl defense some more. I said by the 4th quarter they Atl defense would be running out of gas.

You gave up on them in week four? Shame on you! I didn't give up on them till week six--and again in week 14. (Well, I didn't give up on them completely, but I thought their goose was pretty much cooked.)

I know what you mean about the kickoff return. I was thinking the same thing. The Atlanta defense had to get right back out on the field and get worked over again. What a beatdown that was by our offense, all game long. Only one turnover, and no punts!
