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.

Delhomme was on the sidelines and in the huddle yelling at teammates, coming unglued. While he had every right to be upset, losing it like he did is not how successful NFL quarterbacks perform under pressure.That wasn't the last time Delhomme couldn't keep it together.

And now, more people are starting to take note. Agitate him. Hit him. Bait him. Trick him with coverages.

Put the game in his hands.

The first part of the article basically says the dude has issues and other teams pretty much have him figured out.

The rest goes on to speculate if this trend will continue…

Not a bad article

decent article. he actually sides with the team sticking w/ him this week .....guy pretty much hit everything on the head and didn't really knock Jake as bad as some. He pretty much just stuck with facts and have it a headline people would read.

Yeah, it's a money headline. I've said it plenty of times before, those that want Delhomme to keep starting for our team should know that they share the exact sentiments as every Buc/Saint/Falcon fan out there.

well that might be a bit much considering his career record against some in that group.

    • Hornets lead down to 16 early in the third.   Derrick White is single handedly keeping the Celtics in this game. 
    • Looks like Miller is definitely grabbing his wrist out there.
    • Going by the visit tracker, so far, Im sure more will be added but just bowl games and combine, Carolina looks to be going defense in first 3 rounds Not my tracker but 2025 was pretty good..  tracker link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Kb5OsG9q7ZWk-lamQ_KXBiqxZrcAWXsTDyan7ZKByYQ/edit?gid=0#gid=0   Caleb Banks DT Florida 1st Sonny Styles LB Ohio State 1st CJ Allen LB Georgia 1st Kedrick Faulk EDGE Auburn 1st Gabe Jacas EDGE Illinois 2nd Jacob Rodriguez LB Texas Tech 2nd Derrick Moore EDGE Michigan 2nd Darrell Jackson Jr. DT Florida St. 3rd Ted Hurst WR Georgia St. 3rd Romello Height EDGE Texas Tech 3rd Kyle Louis LB Pittsburgh 3rd Genesis Smith S Arizona 3rd Jalon Kilgore S South Carolina 4th Jude Bowry OT Boston Col. 4th Austin Barber OT Florida 4th Kage Casey OT Boise St. 4th Justin Joly TE NC State 4th Daylen Everette CB Georgia 4th Sawyer Robertson QB Baylor 5th Adam Randall RB Clemson 6th Jalen Huskey S Maryland 6th Mason Reiger EDGE Wisconsin 6th Kaleb Proctor DT SE Louisiana 6th Andre Fuller CB Toledo 7th Landon Robinson DT Navy 7th Reuben Unije OT UCLA UDFA Delby Lemieux IOL Dartmouth UDFA Emmanuel Henderson WR Kansas UDFA Brandon Cleveland DT NC State UDFA Ayden Garnes CB Arizona UDFA Al'zillion Hamilton CB Fresno St. UDFA Marcus Allen CB North Carolina UDFA Nick Dawkins C Penn St. UDFA West Weeks LB LSU UDFA Austin Leausa C BYU UDFA Tristan Leigh OT Clemson UDFA Rashad Battle CB Pittsburgh UDFA Elijah Culp CB James Madison UDFA Gavin Gibson CB North Carolina UDFA Camden Brown WR Georgia Southern UDFA Fintan Brose IOL Delaware UDFA
