Default Re: ***Official 2007 Atlanta Falcons Thread***

And looking at the NFC South at this moment in time, this division is up for grabs. Yeah ATL is in a bad place but there is nothing saying that this division is set in stone. Maybe a spark like a Leftwich signing can give this team something. I'll never write a team off going into week 3.

[/ QUOTE ]Didn't know about contract stuff. How soon do you figure Leftwich can start? Given how bad Harrington is you would think before bye week. Week 8 right? I think three weeks is plausbile. Division only seems winnable if Falcons can win two of next three or so. Harrington knows what it's like to play with job on line I do not think it'll affect him negatively. If anything he'll improve a bit.

Saints are playing bad, who knows when/if they snap out of it. Carolina is erratic as always. Tampa possibly best chance at this point but too early to say. Definitely cannot write off anyone in division just yet.

Still, Leftwich has a LOT of tape. If you are just grabbing him to plug in for a few weeks in desperate hope of getting into division race this is an awful move. Is it just a one year look and see? IMO you don't sign a player like him after week two just for upgrade when your chances are slim regardless of how bad rest of teams are doing in division.
