The Packers hadn’t beaten the Lions since Week 2 of 2021 until last Thanksgiving (even longer). This could be the week of streak busting.

The Falcons don't have any celestial bodies on their side though do they?

[–] falconhawk2158@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Of course we do but you tell me yours first.

[–] Efficient_Progress_6@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

They have 28 of them, to your 3.

Bears haven't beaten the Vikings since December 2020 (1070 days)

[–] WatchMeRayRay@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

And the Bears haven’t beaten the Packers since 2018.

We haven’t beaten anyone in the divisor since 2021, it’s pathetic. We face each of you once again but imm not expecting much, especially since Green Bay and Minnesota are fighting for wild card spots

[–] Dragondrew99@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

We said fuck your tank lol

[–] joebos617@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

only 75 more days until it’s been 2 years and 83 days

[–] MrShad0wzz@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It better be 749 days after tomorrow

There are more storied and prestigious rivalries in the NFL than this, but damned if this isn’t the best fan rivalry in the NFL.

As of today, the Atlanta Falcons also blew a 25 point lead in Super Bowl LI.

[–] fukuoka_gumbo@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yknow, you’re not so bad

[–] Maad-Dog@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

2 years, 8 days, and 3 hours now

[–] regice112@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If Saints lose to Atlanta this weekend, all defenders of Carr, DA, and PC will turn

[–] fukuoka_gumbo@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

V complicated feelings all around

[–] TatumTopFye@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Please let this streak run for 3 years and 28 days.

[–] LiquidBronze26@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Pats fans will tell you that’s rookie numbers. I almost hope we lose on Jan 7th because it seems like the only reason they have to live… almost

[–] Motor_Rub_4848@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Oh yes we lost our matches while taking our cap hits on the chin. Looks like it's starting to catch up to yall though that defense of yours is about to give our entire fanbase hope for Ridder for all of one week.

[–] AhSht-HereWeGoAgain@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That wasn’t even before covid lol. What are we doing here?

[–] Smallgenie549@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This actually feels short. Not sure why it's deserving of a post. I feel like a ton of teams go years like this.

[–] fukuoka_gumbo@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Its because it isn’t deserving of a post. That’s why you’re confused

[–] Lounat1k@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Has anyone told Coach Brain that stat? I’m sure he’d come up with a real zinger. He’s good like that. Not much else, but he does like his zingers. Zingers, it’s all they got.

[–] Mayankadionis@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

man, the falcons really need to step up their game against the saints. it's been way too long since they pulled off a win. a tough streak to swallow for atlanta fans.

[–] JasonPlattMusic34@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The Chiefs had gone what, 8 straight years beating the Broncos until a few weeks ago? This streak might have a ways to go 😛

[–] Efficient_Progress_6@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

No one beats the broncos in 18 straight games!

[–] Responsible-Ad9469@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah my broncos just ended like a 16 game streak to the chiefs. This ain't that bad

[–] AegonTargaryan@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That’s not that bad?

The Giants haven’t beaten Dak since 12/11/2016. Something like 2,546 days give or take a couple.

[–] TheMoonIsLonely@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

naturally that streak will end after this is posted

[–] fukuoka_gumbo@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] urbantroll@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Even if I did, we still had a beautiful steak. (Also, this team is is perfectly capable of fucking themselves regardless of me).

[–] Sartheking@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This is nothing lol. That’s like 4 games at most? Jets haven’t beaten Patriots since December 27, 2015. Bears haven’t beat Packers since December 16, 2018.

2 years and 8 days would be 738 days. A helpful tip is to imagine one week and one day ago - was it November 7th? If not, two years and 8 days ago wasn't either.

(Leap years notwithstanding, but they don't make up a ten day gap.)
