The Atlanta Falcons swagger captain is hands down, without a doubt veteran receiver Roddy White.

White can thump his chest and talk trash with the best of them. He has every right to, to a certain degree as his team is 12-2. Boom. Right now they are the best in the business with only the AFC’s Houston Texans holding a similar record.

So as is his nature, White is taking it upon himself to tell anybody that wants to write it down why the Falcons are moving beyond being a great regular season foe.

In his latest salvo, White admitted that Atlanta has been prone to being intimidated by other successful football programs.

Falcons a win away from home-field advantage

Via Fox Sports South  |  December 18, 2012
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. The most quotable member of the Atlanta Falcons was trying not to say anything at all. But he couldn't help himself and failed. As the team's open locker room session with the media came to a close, wide receiver Roddy White left for a meeting and announced, "I'm not talking until after we win home-field advantage." Enough said. With...

Roddy White says the Falcons use to be afraid to face certain teams

Via Next Level Sports Network  |  December 19, 2012
After the Falcons laid the smackdown on the Giants this past Sunday, Roddy White went on his normal Twitter rants about how people need to start giving the Falcons respect. He ignored they had just lost to the Panthers the week before, but I digress. The Falcons think it is personal, but it isn’t. In [...] [[ This is a content summary only.

Saints looking to win out, playoffs or not

Via AP on Fox  |  December 17, 2012
Saints guard Jahri Evans acknowledges a measure of regret that it took so long - probably too long - for New Orleans to resemble the playoff contender it had been the previous three seasons. Evans says the Saints' 41-0 victory over Tampa Bay on Sunday offered a glimpse of how New Orleans should have played earlier this season. Still, Evans and his teammates say winning out...

Small School standout Corey White is placed on IR in New Orleans

Via NFL Draft Zone  |  December 19, 2012
Saints placed CB Corey White on injured reserve with a knee injury, ending his season. A fifth-round pick in last April’s draft, White had been serving as the Saints’ nickel back before first going down in Week 10. He had appeared in just one game since. White should be 100 percent well ahead of training camp, and will likely open 2013 as New Orleans’ No. 3 or 4 corner. White...

The Atlanta Falcons Cheerleaders are Amongst Tops in the League

The NFL season is slowly coming to a close.  Playoffs should be extremely interesting and no matter what I’m sure we’ll see some great commercials during the Super Bowl.   Speaking of the NFL, I realize that I never share photos of one of the best resources the NFL has to offer:  the cheerleaders. That’s because [...]

Saints Nation: Defensive and Special Teams Player Grades vs. Bucs

Via The Saints Nation  |  December 17, 2012
What a fantastic performance by the Saints defense, led by improbable heroes in backup defensive backs that haven't really gotten much of a chance all season. To hold Doug Martin to 16 yards on 9 carries was worthy of the Baltimore Ravens' defense in their prime. This defense stuffed the run, clogged passing lanes, got pressure with four, and created turnovers. Steve Spagnuolo...

Samuel, Eagles go in opposite directions

When the Philadelphia Eagles traded Donovan McNabb within their division, they got it right. When the same organization traded cornerback Asante Samuel within the NFC to a team with which they compete for a playoff spot, one cant help but think they got it wrong. Especially considering the meager compensation that the Eagles received reported as a seventh-round draft pick and...

Via Football Nation  |  December 17, 2012
The Atlanta Falcons have a great record, but they have won a lot of games against average to weak opponents by slim margins. The Falcons needed a coming out game to boost their relevance in the NFL. Well, they got it by playing a complete game against one of the most feared opponents in the playoffs- The New York Giants. Atlanta had to come out and punch the Giants in the face to...

Former NFL running back Jamal Anderson pleads guilty to reckless driving

The Atlanta Falcons hope a strong finish to the regular season will help build enough momentum to avoid another early playoff exit.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White must have been watching the Celtics-Rockets game on Friday night and clearly didn’t like what he saw from Celts forward Jeff Green during the action. White tweeted on Friday night that Green “is soft and terrible” and that trading Kendrick Perkins for Green was “the worst decision.” Pretty interesting (and random, unless there...
