Livin' la vida loca
rest starters? looking past Cards? What is wrong with you guys! lol Screw that the Hawks need to win BOTH these games to secure home field advantage ( Either #1 or #2 seed ). Hawks just need to DO THEIR JOB and win BOTH GAMES! Also being 4-2 @home leaves a bad taste in my mouth. 1 loss i can live with but 2 is BS when you look at who they lost to and how. Back up QB in one game and Turnovers in another.
Also Teams that rest starters don't tend to do so good in the playoffs if my memory is correct on this.
Who they lost too and how? One team is the #1 seed in the AFC and probably has their QB winning the MVP this year, and is the Las Vegas odds favorite to win the Superbowl. The other team we lost too is also threatening to win the #1 seed in the NFC and has the same record as us. Those are two extremely good teams we lost too. The Hawks could have played better, there is no questioning that, but there's also no shame in losing to two of the top 3 or 4 teams in the NFL either. It's not like we lost to Miami and Detroit. And that back-up QB we lost too is only a back up because he got injured in Minny where he used to be the starter and was having pretty good success. That Minny team was 11-5 the year Bridgewater got hurt and they won their division. So let's not pretend like he's some scrub that came in a beat us with a crappy team around him.
