I was telling people that I could see him coming back. I mean it's not like he's really on the decline yet. His numbers were awesome last year.

He is easily still one of the best TE's in the league

Yesssss!!! Go falcon!

This is bigger than any draft pick this year from an offensive pov. Gotta get some pass rush specialists through FA or draft

How much of a difference maker has Gonzales really been though? I mean I really, really like him as a player, but Atlanta still hasn't accomplished a lot with him there other than accumulating a lot wins in the regular season.

Your silly question doesn't deserve an answer...

The UGA fan gave you one anyway though.

It was more of a statement than a question really anyways. Your statement was basically the equivalent of saying how much of a difference maker is Alshon Jeffery really? You still haven't won the SEC.

Translation: He has made a good point, and I don't actually know how to respond, so I better leave it to someone else who can formulate a well-thought-out response.

And I guess the presence of the QUESTION mark at the end of my QUESTION in my first post must have been confusing to you. I was asking a sincere question. Not once did I make a negative comment about Gonzales, rather I mentioned that I like him as a player.

My point, since you clearly need it dumbed down for you, is that I think Atlanta would probably have similar success without Gonzales. Would they have a drop off at the TE position? It's very likely, but the one player hasn't been the secret to Atlanta's success. And aside from piling up a lot of wins in the regular season since Gonzales has been in Atlanta, they don't have much to show for his presence in the trophy case, so my point is sound.

Before Tony G, Matt Ryan, Turner, Mike Smith the Falcons had never had back to back winning seasons from 1966-2007 0 back to back winning seasons now think of the Falcons the last 5 years yea that's a huge difference

Zero Falcon's games. Well, if you count highlights of Falcon's games...a little.

But the accomplishments you're talking about are because of a collection of guys, not just Gonzales. Again, I really like him as a player, and I always have, but I don't think his presence or absence would make a whole lot of difference.

...right...surely these stats had nothing to do with Atlanta's success. I'm honestly at a loss trying to figure out what point you could possibly be trying to make

I'm not implying he's not a great player. I simply believe Atlanta has assembled a good enough coaching staff and roster to enjoy similar success without Gonzales. So while Gonzales's presence defintely doesn't hurt Atlanta's chances, I'm not convinced their win totals would drop significantly without him. I don't know if you're a fan of Atlanta or not, but I believe a couple of people have taken my first post in the thread in a way I never intended.
