And the Winner is...

Last night the Emmys were on TV.  So was the Eagles/Falcons game.  I'll tell you who won't be getting an award for best performance last night... the Falcon's offensive line.  They did little to nothing to protect their QB as he looked more like a stunt double getting plowed play after play.  Have you ever seen a baker beat a pasty lump of dough before it was finally cooked....it was a little like that.

However this little dough boy became a sort of comeback story as somehow the Falcons were able to pull off a win even though the Eagles were up by 10 in the second half.  It's no secret how they were able to pull off the win, it wasn't the editing department or the directing department led by head coach, Mike Smith.  It was that the opposing QB, Michael Vick, a sort of ATL hometown hero left the game and didn't play the last quarter.

You may be thinking that one man can't make that much of an impact, and it isn't fair that I put all the blame on Vick not being in the game as to why the Falcons won.  How soon you forget our lesson from Week One: there is an "I" in team... this one's name is spelled V-I-C-K.

Final score: Falcons (35-31)
