You're not wrong. Two 'fun' stats:

1) Matt Ryan is the first QB in history to lose back-to-back games with 350+ passing, 3+ TDs, and no picks

2) Teams that score 36+ at home without turning the ball over are 402-4. Two weeks ago, they were 402-2. 

 

The defense is just THAT bad.

Nobody loses as well in historical fashion as the Atlanta Falcons.

And that Super Bowl loss to the Pats.

They haven't been able to overcome injuries to their key defenders.

That's part, and perhaps most of the problem, but plenty of regulars have looked horrid as well. 

That the Neal / Allen / Jones - sized hole in the middle of the D is essentially free points for any team with a quasi-functional passing attack is expected. Poor corner and DL (outside of Takk) play is another, semi-standalone issue. Put together, along with the fact that the O scores quickly and often (or a really, really quick three and out), the Falcons are looking at a historically bad defensive season, statistically.

Well I,couldn’t get a Panthers win so I watched the Falcons loose.  Almost as satisfying.  

Their board will light up about Eric Reid after this.  LMAO.  

It was already lit up after the Saints loss. The center of our defense is roughly analogous to a landing strip for a C-5M Super Galaxy.

      Do You Agree With These Excuses?

      Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.

      I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me
