I did think about some of those games when typing that post. Ugly but a different kind of ugly. We put up massive offense and then pulled a Falcons. Except we snatched the win away at the end. Still, winning and it not being pretty is much better than losing. That team knew how to win. Mostly. But look who we had.

So true...look back at 2015 when we won 15 during the regular season and like half of those went down to the wire

Sounds like you’re just caping because I have already stated my intent when I posted. Was it hyperbolic? Sure. But that’s what’s fun about this board. I don’t need validation. I’ve been posting what I think, good or bad, for years. In my everyday life, I speak my truth and stand on that. I don’t care about validation, affirmation, or popularity. I enjoy the discussion, good or bad. If you re-read, I didn’t say I’ve never seen a QB get stepped on. I said I’ve never seen one, to the best of my memory, have that happen in that fashion on a 4th down and then lay there like the MedAlert lady. And I said I brought up that play because again, how often do you see other QBs have that happen? How often do you see QBs who are “super processors” decide to throw a ball out the back of an end zone on 4th and goal to go? How often do you see them get squared up with a defender and fumble before even getting hit like a scared child? He does poo that other QBs NEVER do. Some have, but they don’t stick around for long. The good ones NEVER do this poo. And that’s the problem. And again, yes, Zavala is a fuging chode and played his part in that play… but I go back to Bryce and his limitations and this being an ongoing issue. It’s like if it’s not him fuging up, someone will because Bryce is out there.

Amazing what happens when the starting qb goes out.

They have had it worked out for awhile now. Any given Sunday. Or Thursday or Monday…..

Lol lol your posts always age like fine wine.. lmfao not understanding why we defer in OT with no sudden death is frikking hilarious

I disagree. And it’s not to be edgy. I feel like this thread used a single play to illustrate a years-long problem, and that is verifiable. The vast amount of his body of work is subpar. The amount of his “wtf was that?” plays are more than any player I have ever watched. The opportunities he’s been given to commit that amount of plays is also more than any player I can remember. To come out one week and throw for 450 yards and 3 TDs is awesome, but then what about the games like last week against the Saints? It’s not an agenda. It’s rooted in fact. I praised him a couple weeks ago in a thread after a game for playing his best game I had seen him play as a pro. And then again, as I previously said, he comes out and lays an egg like no rotten egg ever seen before on what should have been a gimme of a game. As good as this win feels and as cool as it is that he had the box score he had today, the issue with him is consistency. So for all the “this thread didn’t age well” comments floating because we won and our team as a collective was able to overcome those flubs and turnover on downs, in part because ATL is ass, one week to the next you never know what you’re gonna get with Bryce. I’m hoping for the best, but do I believe we’ll be closer to the mean or worse? Yes.

Weak arm and 40 mph wind gusts

last year, we were the happiest 5-12 fan base going into the off-season based on our end-of-season momentum, compared to other 5-12 teams that were just horrible

thought we'd throw in the towel after we were down (what, 14-7? 21-7?) That the team/coach/water-kids were able to pull it together and make something happen is a strong showing of players and coaches believing in each other now let's do it consistently. Win the games we're supposed to win. Be competitive in the games that we're not favored (and maybe win those too)

“Led”

Goff didn't have a great first half, but he looks like Shedeur Sanders in the 2nd half.

It actu!ly helped us We took some more time off the clock before Bryce found TMAC in the endzone, only giving ATL enough time for a field goal

Exhibit A 4th down and 1 Brycey sees Dowdle break free from the coverage and instead of floating it back corner to a wide open dowdle decided to pump fake twice and shuffle trying to beat the linebacker to the edge instead of diving..... TIMID Exhibit 2..... you guessed it fourth and short the blitz and a gap pressure is TELEGRAPHED brycey takes the snap hesitates for a second (it wasnt right off the snap that mayes stepped on him) gets his foot stepped on and instead of tossing it back to Dowdle (right behind him) sits on his bum for turnover on downs. Of course he did! He should have thrown for it last week too! This is the second week in a row teams literally weren't using a deep safety AT ALL because he wasnt even attempting deeper throws.. until his azz was on fire.

Oh you think Bryce can’t throw deep? Well clearly you haven’t watched his tape against McNeese state

Funny story that means nor implies anything. My daughter was in from Clemson this weekend. Took her to Empire Pizza in rock hill. They had the game on. She knows nothing about the panthers or football in general. She looks up and says (paraphrasing) “that one guy has tiny arms. He doesn’t look like a football player at all. He’s small. He should work out or something.” I asked her which one. She says “number 9”. Was a funny moment. great game though today!

It’s going to be interesting to see how shanahan gameplans for him

English and grammer. Go learn some

Small hands too so not as tight a grip/rip on rhe spiral

Is the worn out talking point ChatGPT is telling you to trot out

This makes absolutely no sense. You’ve never seen a QB get stepped on by an OL in 3 decades? Commentators were saying that stuff you’re talking about before the key replay, when they thought his legs got tangled with the center. I know exactly which comments you’re talking about. They were talking about staggering his stance, not spending enough time under center, etc. THEN the replay came that showed what really happened and that all stopped. Sounds like you just had a perspective you wanted to be validated rather than being intellectually honest about the specific play at hand.

Falcons duplicated the saints all in to stop the run game plan..... bryceys ass was on fire from how hot his seat was and finally attempted the throws.... although the amount of times he was timid and late to do it was still high.

He was timid af and not aware situationally yet he threw for 450 yards 3 touchdowns and the go ahead td down 5. Then led the gwd in OT. Wtf are we talking about

Hmm...
