Ball back in Delhomme's hands ... just the way opponents like it

This was written by the Flacons former beat writer, so take this with a grain of slat.

The season opener in 2006 between Atlanta and Carolina is when the book on Jake Delhomme, written by opposing teams' scouts, took full form. Newly acquired defensive end John Abraham was having the game of his life, staying in Delhomme's face, sacking him twice and forcing Delhomme to lose two fumbles.

garbage? i actually thought this was a pretty good write-up.

Ok you're right. I reread it and it wasn't that bad... except it really doesn't say anything other than Delhomme can do really bad and he can do really good. Perhaps someone who doesn't log onto the Huddle every day or two would get more out of it.

well, yeah, it WAS redundant in that aspect... i check this board all the time and usually stay well ahead of NFL.com articles in that aspect.

    • I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

    • Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
