Take away another draft pick. Shoving people around and asking inappropriate questions isn't tolerated in most workplaces. And this comes on the heels of the fake crowd noise debacle and Arthur Blank making the military pay for the color guard presentations.

Hot-garbage-lanta indeed

NFL is not a normal workplace and I really am failing to see an issue with this question. These guys get asked personal questions all the time.

Coaches putting hands on people outside the football field is a crime. Prospects at the combine would get character red flags if they did it. And these prospects are not employees of the NFL yet. They are being interviewed for jobs, and there's laws about what is not appropriate to ask the person being interviewed

Huh? Hands on ppl? I get that it is not an appropriate question in literally every other workplace but the NFL is different. I'm not up in arms like some are when ppl didn't even blink when they heard a player was asked if they found their mother attractive. Or when they asked about a players girlfriend. That's all I'm saying.

It's Atlanta. Nothing more needs to be said.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      How about just don't draft project players in the first round? How about especially when you have arguably the worst roster in the NFL(we did all those years in question)? You don't even have to dig into those player debates specifically. Just don't grasp at straws early in the draft.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By AU-panther · Posted

      I think there were 9, and since I haven't took time to watch each of them on each play individually Its impossible for me to say, which I doubt you have either.   It's not a stat driven grading system; it's a per play grading system.  Tommy Tremble making a great block to spring Rico for that 10-yard run might actually score higher on that play then Ricos run. The actual run might not be anything special; it might be a run that pretty much every back in the league would have made. Here again, I would guess, if you look at every RB in the league, he is towards the top in rushing grade for the year which is what most of us are seeing.  Whether you call that a 90/80/70, 50/40/30, A/B/C, Gold/Green/Red star, it doesn't really matter it's how he ranks relative to everybody else at his position.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By strato · Posted

      Well I will never knock a strong arm, in a vacuum, but it is a lot more than that to it.  Did we kill our roster building and our defense in particular to stick PJ out there?  No. We knew we sucked and he was really just a temporary thing too.  While with Bryce I see the up and down, mostly down, roller coaster on loop now in year three. It has been a Looooong time.    Back to strong arms, it is like having a powerful motor in a car. All the power in the world isn’t going to overcome a bad driver.   But at the same time, even a decent drive with a killer car will beat the best driver if you put him in a go kart   Exaggerating for effect, I know Bryce is not a go kart. Maybe closer to a 6 cylinder with not much displacement…..
