  1. Seeing the D line finally play good ball breaks my heart for what might have been with Grady in there.

  2. This team could have Micah Parsons and Jalen Carter but nah we gotta draft decoys for Jonnu and a running back you already knew was good lmao

  3. Again, they have NFL fans soo used to shady calls that its the norm. There was zero unnecessary roughness on the Colts on that play. I don’t care if its the Falcons or not.

  4. I think they need to let us hear what the refs are saying when they discuss stuff like they did with the xfl. It might help solve some of the issues

  5. It’s been nice not feeling a sense of dread with every drop back. Not expecting a pick or fumble with Heineke.

  6. Man, you can see the real potential for this offense.. We just need proper play calling and an above average QB and this offense is gonna do numbers

  7. I wanted Matt Ryan gone starting around the 2017 season. I want him BACK now. We got midgets and all kinds of stuff trying to play quarterback.

  8. The funny thing is, I’m sure Heinicke is fine just coasting out the rest of his career as a backup, but when homie is on the field, he plays like he gives a shit

  9. So far this game is showing me that smith can be a damn good coach if he has a QB that can complete the basics. This play calling is the same ridder gets

  10. Just tuned in and the Falcons look much better with Heineken. Hope they can keep it going through the second half.
