Falcons lose left tackel

Trueblood used to play for the Bucs. He's awful now. Trueblood is Atlanta's Colombo. He's a Tampa Bay castoff and signed with the Deadskins when Free agency started in March. They cut him before the season started and he didn't play a down for them because he was so terrible. Atlanta signed him a couple weeks ago as Sam Baker has looked terrible after the big contract (took it easy all offseason) and RT Holmes was so out of shape sucking wind and oxygen masks on the bench by the 2nd quarter.

Do you recall how awful Arizona's offensive tackles were last season ?? Every team was tearing them apart, and they got their QB's annihilated. Well expect Atlanta's tackles to somewhat approach Arizona's OT level last year.


The Falcons will start Jeremy Trueblood at right tackle in Week 3.
Atlanta is reeling up front. Trueblood was cut by the Redskins before final cuts, and signed by the Falcons on September 3. Lamar Holmes -- who's gotten rocked at right tackle -- will attempt to protect Matt Ryan's blindside due to Sam Baker's foot and ankle injuries. Trueblood has been wholly ineffective in his eight-year career. He'll be on Cameron Wake's side on Sunday. Sep 20 - 6:38 PM - Rotoworld
