Have at it. Some good and some bad, need to show better next week. We need to start looking for another backup QB imo...

Not worried right now. If the backups are playing this bad in the third game then I'd be worried about depth.

White was absolutely awful... with time, he continually misfired. I think he had one downfield pass completion.
The starting line was good... and that starting line were our actual reserves.
Cam Smith looks like a starter.
Tindall showed better instincts than we've seen previously.
Higgins looks like a keeper.
Achane still looks like a space back to me. When he was met, he went down.
I liked Brooks, but he's a bit slow footed.

The backup interior D-line was not very good. Pili might stick as a pure DT, the others? Meh!
No... absolutely NO pass rush out of these guys other than one play from Nelson (looks like Van Ginkle).

Life is what we make it.
EZ looked good.
Gaskins looked roster worthy.
Higgins looked good.
Achane looked good.
Both QB's looked awful.
O-lines looked bad. Falcons had their way.
Special teams looked bad - as usual.
Cam Smith not ready to start.
Iggy did not look bad.
Miller looked ok.
Agude looked ok.
No pressure on Falcons QB's.
Tons of pressure from Falcons d-line.
Fins not looking like a top 10 NFL roster tonight…but hey, this was a glorified practice….right?

We need to be looking for a real back up QB ASAP! White and Thompson are horrible!

Games like these help separate the wheat from the chaff.
Somebody left will all the wheat.

I agree with everything you said other than Cam Smith. I thought he looked really good before he got hurt.
McDaniel seemed pissed at Smith for not taking a knee and running out the clock.

Very little to get excited about tbh, this game to me just showcased why pre-season games are so damn useless, just pointless. If you can't figure out who the ones that have a chance are in your practices then you shouldn't be coaching. Just add the 3 games to the regular season.

Smith does come across as a bit of a dickhead tbh

Skylar was put in a position to fail with that OL.
If I am HC, I flip the QB2/3 positions next week to see what Skylar does.
Unpopular take: If White and Skylar continue to stink it up, I would seriously consider bringing in Matt Ryan for a workout as a backup if he would take backup money. Yeah yeah he's washed. But he excelled in this offense at one point. Is a washed Ryan worse than White in this offense? I don't think so.
