That defense under him was legendary and still to this day holds the record for least points scored im pretty sure of. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/atl/1977.htm That defense only gave up 9.2 pts per game over a 14 game season. that's impressive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had a offense that was even remotely avg we probably win a championship that year. We finished 7-7 somehow with our defense allowing less than 10 ppg thats just absurd.

swede700 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 (edited) What I meant is that Glanville ruined their look. He was the one that brought in the black helmets. I've never liked them. Have the current version logo with the red helmets and stick with that. I'm even okay with having black jerseys since they had them upon their creation (although I still prefer the red ones that they had for much of my childhood in the 80s), but the black helmets have to go. I loved their defense with Jessie Tuggle...and I kind of liked the Falcons a bit (except for Bill Fralic, I still absolutely despise him), up until that Dirty Bird nonsense. I completely lost respect for them after that. Edited April 18, 2019 by swede700 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom cody Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 They are nice jerseys, good on the team for keeping them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShupacTakur Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 My personal favorite of the Charger looks was the dark blue jerseys with the dark blue helmet from the early-mid 2000’s. Always thought those were slick as hell. Still don’t understand why they felt the need to go back to the white helmet, but the powder blues definitely work better with it.

Incarcerated_Scarface Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Powder blues are nice but they're way overrated when it comes to jerseys. Fight me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TecmoSuperJoe Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 No one ever talks about their late 70's/early 80's jerseys, but I personally like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UtahUtesFan Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 (edited) Might have to consider going to Oakland Raiders @ LA Chargers in December, can't be a bad seat at that stadium, right? I'd rather have a nice LA home game (because you know it will be a 50/50 crowd) from Utah than go out to Oakland anymore IMO.

Spanos math says if you have less seats then you gouge the fans more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
