*** OFFICIAL ATLANTA FALCONS @ MIAMI DOLPHINS GAME THREAD *** WK7

[EPBro]

Herbert
Jonathan Taylor
Chase

We passed on Wirfs for Tua. Austin Jackson went later.

Could have traded those 2 firsts to move up, which they were seriously trying to do, but then decided to keep the picks to draft the excellent Iggy after reaching on Jackson.

Why do they keep taking Gesicki out at those times. If that was Gesicki he would’ve fought for that and it prob would’ve been a TD, not an INT.

 

[Jimi]

Yeah well part of the problem with only having 2-3 legitimate NFL players (if we're including Gaskin) on the field on a given Sunday is that unless you run the ball every play you're going to have to throw to guys who aren't in the perfect situation to execute.

It can't always be a jump ball to Gesicki, a throw to Waddle who got pre-snap motion to get free, or a schemed up catch and run to Isiaiah Ford.

People keep whining about the short throws and the lack of a deep game, then when they see the QB try to do what they've been asking for all season long it's an example of the QB's ineptitude.

We already saw last year with Fitzpatrick how much a difference the QB makes with that. Fitz had his own issues, but it’s undeniable that whenever he was in the offense was more explosive. We’re seeing more of the same this year, pop gun offense. The QB absolutely is part of that.

QB throws a pick. QB sucks. Logic at finheaven. Because picks are so rare for QBs. Mahomes has 8 picks so far I guess he’s not elite anymore.

not the end of the world but you can't deny it's a bit concerning. Red zone ints are not good especially two in a row

 

[volk]

But that’s the hand they’re handing him. Gesicki makes that play.

I can't for the life of me understand why Gesicki isn't utilized in the red zone more often. That said, it was still a poor decision by Tua in an otherwise respectable outing so far. The offensive personnel sets in the red zone are just puzzling to me.

****tard coaching

 

[NoblePhin]

Finally get Waddle open on a drag and Tua throws into triple coverage for an endzone pick after a 5min drive.... then Ryan goes deep to Pitts and they score 3 in 30 seconds.....

 

[Sirspud]

Aaron Rodgers might be the best ball placer that's ever played the game.

And that means absolutely nothing if receivers aren't doing their end, adjusting their bodies to make the catch, and having awareness to be looking for the ball.

Those things happen when you develop an offensive culture. Not when you're throwing out a rotating list of 3rd string or practice squad caliber players coached by third rate staffs without even a clear chain of command.

 

[Miami 13]

That’s on you

It’s on being a lifelong fan of this dumpster fire.

Concerning sure. Saying he sucks and is a bust to much.

 

[dunegoon]

I like those 10-15 yards slants and stuff, but it's time to go deep a few times. This is getting ridiculous

Mahomes has a proven record of success. Tua is struggling with the second worst defense in football after struggling last week against the worst defense in football

 

[The Ghost]

Karras started every game and provided security in pass protection, leadership and was good at making the line calls / communicating.

Liability in run game, Sure. But again superior to what we have now, by a wide margin.

Outside of Waller getting the better of him last year, who Gruden called the best player he ever coached, Rowe has been one of the best TE cover guys in this league.

You must be new to this dolphins fan thing, cause I remember for 10 years we couldn't cover a single darn TE.

So either provide an actual take, or piss off.

Cause fans like you are starting to annoy me.

Rowe I don’t have a big problem with but his legend is overblown.

Karras just wasn’t good enough. Not much different than Dieter.

 

[dolfan91]

It’s shocking how lazy the defense has been playing.

There’s no way you leave Pitts 1 on 1 with our safety with NO SAFETY help anywhere.

Ofcourse Ryan is going to take that 1 on 1 option anytime.

Bad coaching all around.

 

[PBay Fin Fan]

Welcome aboard...Tua is the least of this teams issues and trading away 4 years of draft picks for a troubled QB another franchise is sick of coddling is NOT the answer

Agree 100% sir, they do that trade I might have to be out after 55 years.
