3rd and 5, looking for Olsen, never gets off him. KB and Dickson open. 

Remmers destroyed on spin move here.

pass incomplete, Cam hit. 

Damn. Dickson didn't have a chance at the sticks but KB coulda fallen over for the first. 

Seeing Freeney with a clean shot at cam and 74 doing his best Byron Bell impersonation is frightening.

The broadcast showed the shove. Not that it makes a difference

They just didn't talk about it.

I've been watching the game this morning while at work. The best part so far was hearing us chant "Keep Pounding" at the start of the broadcast.

olsen had a step on his guy..cam with a wild throw..should have just gone underneath to KB..easily picks up the first and it's a much easier throw..the o-line has been atrocious at protecting cam but cam has also struggled with some of his decisions and accuracy..cam is probably pressing some because he knows he doesn't have much time in the pocket

Thats something that ive been wondering about. It seems like Cam isn't looking at the whole field but locking in on either KB or Olsen. Plus the fact that he is getting constant pressure is probably making him look at the D-Line rather than down field.

step or no step, at some point newton has to acknowledge that olsen draws coverage and consistently leaves someone like benjamin open or with single coverage and trust him enough to just give him the ball.

it's maddening to see benjamin overlooked time and time again.

Atlanta first play from scrimmage on offense. 

Panthers bring 7 defenders. Thomas Davis clearly held, no call.

Result, one of many Julio Jones receptions. 

At least CJ is near the QB. Ealy was chipped and taken out of the play. 

The announcer kept saying how we weren't blitzing, which is the exact opposite of what we were doing. We were blitzing to much which left our DBs on a island. And the Falcons kept picking up the blitz on these play action.

 

We were playing the Falcons as if they were a run first team.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
