Bugs and crashes included, would've been time better spent.

I think we're saying the same thing. DJ can be special. Tools are there to be. He just isn't that playmaker that he has shown flashes of being.

Methinks this guy is absolutely 17 or he's a very angry 40-something.

DJ is going to go down as one of the biggest disappointments we ever had at wr. One of the best potentials, never truly realized. Forever remembered as "pretty good".

And DJ chokes it.

Hartsfield got absolutely worked.

Foreman has to finish this game with like 35 carries.

You're that guy at the game in the uppers that nobody likes. That's who you're being right now. Don't be that guy.

Seeing the knee jerkers not even know the play they're bitching about is hilarious. Can game day threads be for users who have been here for a minimum of 2 years please?

Immediately take a shot here.

PJ a little too casual with that lob. To be fair, Carter is a freak athlete and made a hell of a play.

Y'all better put respect on Derrick Brown's name. Dude is a monster. That is one of the hardest plays you'll see from a nose guard in the NFL.

We're correct to force the read option to go to the dive. We're wrong for not getting downhill.

Same. Thought he was gonna be the real deal.

TMJ is either going to be Funchess or Moose. There are no other options.

This offense needs to be treated like Jake when he took over for Peete. Let your run game control things, let PJ rip it to the playmakers once they adjust on the run.

Feed Foreman baby

Moton being a problem. PFF still gonna say he's a great RT.

Foreman is a workhorse back and we need to feed him.

Losing at the line. Gotta correct that. Also need the offense to actually stay on the field.

PJ showing why we drafted a kid and signed a guy. He's a solid backup QB. He's not a starter. Missing throws that he absolutely has to hit. Couple questionable decisions on throws. Think the pressure of this game being for the division has him rattled. He doesn't look bad necessarily, just off. Of course if you insert Baker, and he has batted balls and missed throws, you're no better off.

Let's not lose our minds entirely ok. Big road trip just ended, it's early in the year, and we've not played badly out of the gate. It's a long season. If we have problems in a couple weeks I'll be concerned but we tend to do this early in the year and by January, we start clicking.

I've not trashed Sam and this isn't a thread about Sam at all. So wtf are you talking about?

Why are we shitting on Baker? Dude has been a standup guy the entire time he's been here. Sure he struggled, mostly with the batted balls and having Matt Rhule as his head coach, but he's been the perfect teammate as far as we can tell. Flat out said "of course I want to play but PJ is hot, so I'm helping us win by supporting him however I can and running scout team". That's big considering he's a first round pick who has only been a starter. Asking the GM if we're committed to winning after trading your most prized weapon? That's a team leader move imo. If Burns or Shaq or DJ did this, nobody would bat an eye or they'd be happy that a team leader feels this way. But because it's Baker it's a bad thing? Idk.

You win. That's what sports are about ultimately. You don't piss away a season in the hopes of maybe turning it around. Took the Bengals and Browns forever to just be relevant again. Plenty of other franchises too. The key isn't throwing a season down the shitter to bounce back the next year or two years later, it's establishing a foundation and building off that. Done right? Can take a year or two or three but you're never realistically going from absolute poo to competing the following year and then maintaining that momentum. Hasn't happened in my lifetime. We are currently a competitive team. Not a good team, but we can be in games at a minimum. We should build off this, not throw to hope our draft picks pan out. We're in a position as it stands to be a playoff team next year. Hell if we steal the division we can do it this year.
