Greg Little sucked and Kyle with a clean pocket

Allen now may be statistically the worst QB stats wise with a clean pocket. He was one of the worst going into this week. 
 

Not to mention a lot of times he’s quick to bail on a clean pocket and create some of these pressures himself.

But hey! He’s got “moxie”

Yes, he sucked but both of those sacks were at least partially on Allen. On both of those plays, he had a ton of room to either step up in the pocket or roll out to his right. Instead, for some reason he chose to try to roll out to his left both toward the pressure and away from his throwing hand and directly into the arms of the defender.

Whoever played QB behind that line yesterday would have been dead meat. 

They were approaching the game with a "Do what you want to the girl, just leave me alone" mentality. 

Kyle didn't do them many favors, but  sheesh, the only o-lineman that seemed even unembarrassing that day was GVR, the guy that has traditionally been labelled as the weak link on the line. Even Turner sucked. Paradis was completely washed out. Moton was giving up pressures and sacks like he had lead shoes on. And Concussion King looked like he was still blinking away the cobwebs.

I really couldn't believe what I was watching with Little dropping straight back on his pass blocks and giving his rusher a shorter path to the quarterback.

That's not a rookie mistake. They teach you to take an outside rusher wide in college. Hell, even a high school tackle should know that.

Weren’t we just saying cam had shell shock from so many pressures that when he actually did have time he panicked?

im pretty sure that was a thing on the huddle the last 8 years

I’m not saying he didn’t make poor choices but just because he has a couple clean pockets in a 14 pressure 7 sack game doesn’t mean to quickly add up the rating for those plays and try and narrate some sort of agenda give me a break. The oline has been straight trash

Double edged sword.

The line was awful yesterday. Don't see how anybody can deny that. I wouldn't have bet on Peyton Manning playing behind that swiss cheese protection.

With that said, one of the things that has been so good about Allen is his ability to stay even keeled even under duress. Yesterday, that wasn't there.

Only Newton always gets the built in excuse of a bad offensive line.

Damn, I've been spelling "moxy" wrong this whole time

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
