Jdog, what do you mean by not having Grimes on the team is a start. Do you have a real name. What has he done to you or anyone for that matter besides go out and do what they tell him to do and of course he is being blamed for everything that goes wrong. He will let his haters become his motivators. Have a blessed day

There’s got to be something in the Atlanta water supply akin to potassium nitrate (salt peter) that affects the defensive coaches and players and forces the defense into the so-called “prevent” mode when they have even a tiny lead. Just once more in my lifetime, I’d like the see the Falcons beat the snot out of someone instead of playing patty cakes with them and letting them catch up.

..and to the guy that rips on Matt Ryan? Watch another sport. Your not smart enough to be a football fan. Watch Chinese table tennis! After all, your head is a “ping pong ball!” ….a what? …exactly!

What helps defense against the pass? A Pass Rush! A Pass Rush! A Pass Rush! A Pass Rush! A Pass Rush! A Pass Rush! A Pass Rush! A Pass Rush! and most importantly…A Pass Rush!

Great job guys! 5 first half sacks!

Only one way to improve this pass defense… Hire a real defensive coordinator. Never understood this hire, considering all the smart moves and hires Smitty and Dimitroff have made. Perhaps Blank forced Smitty’s hand on this one decision. Blank still believes folks with GA ties will sell tickets. Most of the yards given up by the secondary are in the second half. This is the point in the game when Van Gorder chooses to call his conservative plays rather than go for the jugular. Find an experienced NFL defensive coach for next season…PLEASE!

So much for the saints being beaten by the panthers. Now let;s see what the turdybirds do next week at carolina. I’m already calling that a lost for the turdybirds.

I didn’t know that the Detroit Red Wings had a satellite branch in Mableton.
Uh…thanks for sharing?

Has anyone else noticed that Matt Ryan is playing without confidence? The QB is only a shadow of the guy fans saw last season. Interception was absolutely unacceptable! Receivers were running free all day in Redskin secondary. Why no long pass attempts? Defense went to sleep in second half. Performed without any passion or fire! Allowing 17 points to Redskins is embarrassing! This is a victory which has the feel of a defeat. Kudos to Michael Turner for all his good work. Raspberries to Falcon defense for opting not to keep pressure on Redskin QB! Terrible decision. If team plays this uninspired from here on out the playoffs may not be obtainable! Was distressed by what I saw on both sides of ball over final 30 minutes. Wanted a Falcon to send that son of a betch DeA$$hole Hall to ER! Untalented scumball. Hope Falcons play much better this weekend. ++STENDEC++
