During WK1, they lost 98.65 to 129.95 against Ante Up, with Adrian Peterson and his 21.2 points on the bench. Then Coach Jon sat Larry Fitzgerald down for WK3, losing out on his 21.9 points while losing the Chunky Monkeys. And that all culminated in last week's beatdown, where despite scoring 132.75 points, the Birds got pummeled by defending champion Buffy, who put up a rocking 151.30 points. With every opponent over 100+ so far, and facing a Points Against that is 18+ more points than any other team in the league, the Dirty Birds are floundering.
This is despite the top QB in the game (Matt Ryan), a top two WR (Roddy White), a top three TE (Rob Gronkowski), and four RBs ranked in the top fourteen. Heck, they even picked up Tony Gonzalez, the current top TE. With the Falcons defense also on board, the Dirty Birds are doing a Philly Phreaks strategy apparently. However, all these gaudy numbers are still leaving them short of victories. With steady rookie Andrew Luck waiting in the wings, is it time to blow up this team already?
Fans of the Dirty Birds are confused, even as the real life Atlanta Falcons are crushing the competition. Where's the magic for their comparable fantasy team?
