Moderators PSSSHHHRRR87 Posted September 7, 2018 Moderators Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Here we go again. Someone must have put diesel in the Ferrari offense because we were choking all night. I was impressed with the defense (not with Trufant aka Mr. PI tho). Yeah, yeah... First game jitters and we haven't built up our stamina yet, but I keep waiting for this team to become what we know they can be. We could be better than Rodger and the Packers back during their 2011 SB run, but just can't seem to get clicking on all cylinders. Come on Falcons! Give us more than hope!

Premium Member JayBirdHawk Posted September 7, 2018 Premium Member Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Tight Sphincters in the red zone. Can't get 1 yard to the end zone. Too many drops. Too many Penalties 100+ yards in penalties. And......Keany Neal done for the year with a torn ACL. Sigh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PSSSHHHRRR87 Posted September 7, 2018 Author Moderators Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Yep. ACL injuries like that happen due to poor conditioning. Julio had that problem early in his career. Puts a lot more pressure on Alford and Trufant. I guess we're about to see who Kazee is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member JayBirdHawk Posted September 7, 2018 Premium Member Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 Kazee looked good in pre-season, but you know - preseason. These games matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Mule Posted September 7, 2018 Report Share Posted September 7, 2018 That long pass that was called incomplete, after a challenge, sure looked complete, didn't it. Saw several replays and it was jiggled around, then secured. Any one else see it my way? What is it about the red zone and the birds? They try and try and try, game after game, year after year. We watch our opponents. Compared to us, they all make it look so easy and we can't. Why? From the 20 to the 20, Atlanta moves with some ease. Then, they freeze, over and over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators macdaddy Posted September 12, 2018 Moderators Report Share Posted September 12, 2018 From Mark Bradley Quote Thursday’s game ended the way January’s Division Round encounter had – with Matt Ryan throwing to Julio Jones at the pylon to no avail. (Different pylon this time, though. For Steve Sarkisian, that constitutes a wrinkle.) Sark sucks. He needs to go. How much more evidence do we need. Honestly i'm not totally sure Quinn is cut out to be a head coach but i'm willing to see how a real OC would affect this team because the D continues to be decent.

Gray Mule Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Falcons = no defense! Can not - Will not commit to pressure on the QB. Rushing four, not five, or heaven forbid, six. Give up the TD and the ball game. Offense, very good. Defense, not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give the D a pass right now, but the injuries are to our best LB and safeties, yet we are getting burned by WR's. Trufant and Alford are making stupid penalties and getting burned. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prevent defense when up 2+ scores invariably leads to a nail biting last second play. I'm starting to look at DQ with a side eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High5 Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 1-3 is brutal especially when we could so easily be 4-0 right now. At least the defense played better in the 2nd half. That final drive was frustrating. Beasley was robbed on the fumble and then Trufant missed an easy interception. We really need to win these next 3 games before the BYE. Steelers, Bucs, Giants is about as easy a stretch as you could ask for right now. Unfortunately no game is easy for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
