Falcons trading for Chris Jones tn
Ok Des. This is where you need to get your head out your ass
Richie Grant was such a poor draft pick, guy has not panned out at all
Defense is weak the middle if they get passee our dline.
Wish they would play zo carter more. He could help that
Edit: guess they are watching this post lol
LOL at Hurst throwing Bryces first touchdown ball away
Wow
Lmao so Hurst is good now?
Bro wasn’t doing all that with us🥲
I forgot that classic falcons gameday tradition of watching something else until we got back on offense.
Wow so it’s like that now Hayden, smh we had something special
Having absolutely zero pass rush might come back to haunt us at some point
HAYDEN HOW COULD YOUUU???? I thought we had something 🥺
Not going for it on 4th and half a yard led to that…
They went down the field easy
Richie Grant is unplayable. Hurst could not break a tackle here at all and you whiff like that.
Need the offense to respond, can’t have a three and out and put this tired defense back on the field
Hurst is pretty annoying tbh
Pass rush is terrible. Dial up a blitz if you have to. A rookie shouldn’t be this comfortable in the pocket with the panthers O-Line
Linebackers on that 3rd down both running towards the back, leave the TE open
I thought Carolina’s O Line was trash. Does that mean our D Line is trashier?
Did he throw the ball into the stands?
Falcons defensive line gonna falcons defensive line I guess. Where is John Abraham when you need him?
Hurst threw Young’s first TD ball in the stands. Douche 😂😂
Hayden Hurst, the legend. Better than Tony G and Gronk combined
Spots are hilarious lmao
Also, delay of game not a thing anymore?
I’m surprised they even mentioned Hurst considering they’re slobbing on Bryce Young’s knob
Time for Ridder to step it up man.
Reminder that we drafted Richie Grant the pick before Azeez Ojulari
Gotta figure out pass protection. Run game is as expected but gotta get some playaction and Ridder comfortable.
ALL IS LOST
Kyle pitts gonna make an appearance today?
Fuck that looked too easy by them
I wish we’d throw to our tight end
Somebody wanna guard Hurst? Can we just stick Andersen on him?
I can’t believe we just happened to be bad in the years with no QBs
I’ll admit, I don’t know this team that well as a fan for one day, but aren’t the falcons built around the O-Line and running game? I want to see some 12 personnel packages and pound the rock with some play action.
Come on d adjustments. Carolina has scrub WRs and Bryce can’t throw deep. Why give him so many short passes all day?
Lord I’ve seen the pass rush you’ve given other teams and we want that for ourselves
Bryce fucked us up
Ok. Warmed up now. Run the ball, find London/Pitts.
I get why Hurst is being the baby he is, he is pretty solid and somehow our HC that loves TE’s couldn’t utilize him well
We have to be able to run and sustain long drives to win this year. Now is the time.
My main takeaway so far is we’re not nearly as good in the trenches as I thought we’d be. Gotta give Dez a clean pocket, and gotta generate some kind of pass rush.
If you though our defensive line was all the sudden going to be good you weren’t paying attention last year. We could have SIGNIFICANT improvement from last year and still be pretty bad.
Pass protection, passing (for positive yards), and pass rush seem suspect. Not good.
At least Ridley is doing well. Were probably getting that 2nd round pick
Our passing game looks like a well oiled machine
