The Falcons are 1-6. The owner of the Falcons apologized for the performance of the team and said that he is just as upset as the fans are about the way that things have turned out thusfar. Though it is nice to see that he feels for the fans, but I am not really sure what to think about things. The season is over and I don't think that Michael Vick should come back this season if he is not 100%. With the offensive line that the Falcons have, he is bound to get hurt again and the way that the team is playing, their confidence is so low that they may inadvertantly give up on a play that could be crucial to keeping him safe. Here is the letter from the Atlanta Falcons website:

Dear Falcons Fans:

A 1-6 record so far is not what any of us anticipated at the beginning of the season. We understand the frustration you feel. In fact, everyone at the Falcons organization shares it. We are disappointed – even angry. We know our team is capable of playing better.

Our coaches, our players, our staff, and I collectively share the responsibility for the outcome of this season. We're not giving up. Our goal is the same as yours: to win football games. We have nine more games in this season, and our commitment to you is to work as hard as we possibly can to win every one of them.

I want you to know that I am just as committed to taking this franchise to the heights of NFL success as I have been from the very start. Not just this season, but every season. If anything, I am more committed and determined than ever.

For the last year and a half, you have rallied around the New Atlanta Falcons in a way that exceeded our expectations. Our organization and team need your continued support, and we will do everything we can to maintain it. We need you, our 12th man.

Thank you for being a part of our team. Let's continue to rally together.

Arthur M. Blank
