Are the Falcons overrated? Entering the 2015 season, the Falcons fans had lofty expectancies for the team to go on to the Super Bowl. However, those expectancies were impractical, considering some of the major unsorted complications. When they had only 6 regular season matches left, Atlanta was at 6-4, a record entirely inconsistent with very naïve expectancies. A precise examination of the Falcons’ record last season reveals how overrated they were. The team’s susceptibilities were really…

First, I helped prepare dinner and snacks before the Super Bowl. We had a variety of food from pigs in blankets to guacamole to barbecue chicken wings, some of the classic Super Bowl recipes. I watched the beginning of the game and the halftime show. They called to the field some of the MVPs from past Super Bowl winning teams. Then, Joe Montana flipped the coin and the Panthers chose tails and they won. The funniest commercial, in my opinion, was the T-Mobile commercial with Steve Harvey.…

For Lambeau Field, the main customers will be NFL fans, and more specifically Packers fans. Currently, the majority of NFL fans are male, approximately 65% (Eby, 2013). It will be important to try and reach some more women in advertising to try and grow the fanbase of the NFL. Around 71% of NFL fans are over 35 years old (Eby, 2013). Therefore, younger fans should be targeted in ad campaigns more. Obviously it is important to keep the audience you have, but growing the fanbase is also huge. If…

Vince Lombardi once asked “If it doesn 't matter who wins or loses, then why do they keep score?” Scoring points is a major factor in winning a football game, but stopping the opposing team from scoring helps too. So you might simply ask, just how important is scoring points versus the amount of points that a team allows to be scored on them? Here the correlation between three variables will be examined to come to a consensus of whether the points scored or points allowed correlates with the…

Last Sunday, the Buccaneers escaped with a win against the New York Giants. Kicker Nick Folk grazed a 34-yard field goal to knock off the Giants 25-23 and send them to 0-4. Folk had previously missed two other field goals and an extra point in the game. The Buccaneers have the New England Patriots on Thursday in Tampa. When the scheduled came out saying we had to play the Patriots, I won't lie, I thought we were in for a bad game. Now I look at this game as a very easily winnable game. The…

attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence.” (see more with fig. 1) Lombardi had gone with that quote his whole life, and “was the first coach to win a Super Bowl in January 1967” (Nations). Lombardi coached for seven years on the packers, and in those seven years he had won seven titles, including the first two Super Bowls. Lombardi may have put an affect on the way football is played, and how people enjoy watching the game, but the main reason people watch football is…

History of the powerful relationship The NFL, along with some other surprising professional sports were the ones who first established a successful relationship between their sport and television. Boxing and professional wrestling were amongst the sports that started the rise of broadcasting during a time when baseball and even college football were viewed more popular than professional football. Post-Network Era The powerful relationship started in 1964 when only one network aired the NFL…

Football Buttery popcorn rolling around from the wind, soda cans flowing out of the trash cans. The fans cheering and booing at the refs, and the big bright light that cover the whole entire stadium. All of these things describes my friday nights, at the Waddell Stadium for football. Some people say football is boring and confusing, but to me I love watching my brother make big tackles. Even if they lose, I still have a smile on my face, because my brother, Joe, always makes me proud no matter…

franchise: First, the Falcons had not won consecutive playoff matches since 1998. Second, in the NFC playoffs, Matt Ryan was 1-4. Third, the Falcons and the Packers played in the same conference. Since the unbelievable 1998 Falcons team (14-2 record, NFC trophy holders), Atlanta had only won 3 playoff matches – the Wild Card round against the Packers in 2002, the Divisional…
