  1. he’s not the first, the previous just weren’t allowed to come back
  2. if you expect to resign him then I don’t think you let it. it creates a setback in your build that you would really rather not have. I mean I’m open to the idea of upgrading LT outright if it’s possible but if you just accept what Ekwonu is and believe Moton has some good football left, and it’s pretty fair to believe this given that OTs seem to be having longer careers, then I think you just keep moving. If an elite LT falls in your lap go for it but otherwise..
  3. I mean you may just need to let Njiman do what backups do and fill in for next season, or for the games Ekwonu misses. he wasn’t bad stepping in this season and there’s a lot of other different directions this team would really like to go as part of our build. Kinda just depends on whether or not you expect to get Ekwonu back at all. If he’s coming back, if you like him and anticipate resigning him, you may just have to ride it out.
  4. Itll be something to watch. Timeline for nfl players is typically going to be on the faster end given the availability of care, but it will depend on the severity as well. Still, it was time to start thinking about another OT addition anyways.
  5. this team needs some spread elements. It’s what the QB is most comfortable with and the personnel around him are suited for more old school power run play action shots. get a spread back, get a true Y piece, get a fast yac merchant so we can actually split the 2 high and actually incorporate some wr screens in for easy yardage
  6. Teams figured out the formula going into the last quarter of the season. over the past five games, I’d imagine we lead the league in 10+ play massive sustained drives which bled quarters his argument would be “if we could get some good pass rushers, some rangy linebackers, upgrade at safety and get a third guy at CB, my defense will work.” it’s the ole Shula defense Good coaches do more with less.
  7. nothing surprises me anymore the same league that gave us two games against home openers to start the season, an important division game on the road to end the regular season, an awful bye, all in a year where we play more road games than home games.
  8. the league apparently confided this to the team in secret and was hoping it wouldn’t get out ”sorry we messed up your season-don’t tell anyone though”
  9. you aren’t talking about the correct play nor are you addressing the issue presented
  10. 9/10 out of ten Shough lowers his shoulder and drive for more yards. The idea that a defender is supposed to know the magical 10th time and pull up is insane-and when it’s officiated Inconsistently like it was yesterday-then massive changes needs to be made. either ban the slide or make guys choose. You slide once-that’s who you are for that game. It’s more convoluted but it’s better than this current system. The NCAA was quick to change the rule after Kenny Pickett gamed the rule, but then again that’s the NCAA. The NFL usually hates admitting they have any blemish whatsoever.
  11. literally LOLing at the no call on the Bryce slide
  12. saints will be starting a guy they just signed off their practice squad at RT for this game. never like to see injuries but hopefully this is an opportunity for Scourton to make some splash plays.
  13. even if it ticks up a bit, ypg is still like ~25 yards smaller than it was a decade ago. the game has changed.
  14. passing totals last season were at their lowest level since 2008 with four games left to go this season, the average ypg is even lower-212 ypg average league wide.
  15. he adds a dimension out of the backfield that this team has sorely needed as well. It’ll probably a be a lesson they keep in mind with the position regardless of where dowdle ends up.
  16. managed the game really well. Taking the ball was obvious but keeping the ball on the ground with the weather and leaning on the defense proved to be the right choice.
  17. he gets absolutely blanked versus press and if the opening move doesn’t work he doesn’t run away from anyone. id like to keep him on the roster to see if he gets back into game shape but it’s right to keep him a healthy scratch right now
  18. every time a falcons QB misses a pass millen chimes in with some “oh shucks just missed him” commentary as if our DL hasn’t been in the face of the QB every single time
  19. Matt Millen is just actively rooting for Atlanta at this point
