And at pick #31 or 32, not mid-first round. Anyone think the Birds are a SB team?

It's the NFL. With the right bounces, I quite literally think 10-15 team *could* win the Super Bowl.
Hopefully, we do as Matt Ryan said and just "stack up wins."
Like '98 and '16... you just gotta hope you don't get hit by injuries too bad, have the ball bounce your way, get hot before the playoffs... you just never know.
That unpredictability is why the NFL has been king for so long... every year there is legitimate hope for half of the franchises in the league, that this year is "the year."
The energy in the city after the 2016 NFC Championship was absurd. After Julio's 80 yard td catch and run, it was like a rave in the Georgia Dome for the rest of the second half. Even had we won the Super Bowl, I likely had more fun that night. Alford's pick-six was incredible, but the stadium was likely 30% Falcons fans, 50% Patriots fans, and the balance 20% agnostic/corporate types. It's the best-run production I've ever seen, but it doesn't have the energy of a home-playoff game.
I'd love for it to happen, but in order to do so, let's beat Indy first.
