How seriously are you taking this year, as a whole?

Each game is very serious for us. We seriously need to lose out. I don't care if casual fans don't really care about this season. This draft will decide our future to a large extent, and we need to be as high as possible. Yes less people care because the socializing aspect of the game has been eliminated for now, but I'm on the edge of my seat that we lose on Sundays.

This year was a wash to begin with. Honestly I thought we would be were the jets are right now. I figured 5 wins at most and I was about right. Little did I know that 5 wins could be a playoff birth or picking 15th. 5 wins use to be automatically top 5 pick.

We all weren't expecting much from this team.  

Likes   Rhule, Brady, Kerr, Chinn, Brown, YGM, other rookies and young players playing well.  

Dislikes:  CMC injuries, Teddy, I can't throw deep, Bridgewater,  Ian Thomas was supposed to take over for Olsen, Whitehead and other poor FA adds. Covid

In general we have been competitive and I give a lot of credit to Rhule for creating a winning mentality (even if we aren't winning the mentality is there)

IMO we'll finish 4-12 or 5-11.  If New Orleans is a game ahead of Green Bay going into the final week.  They'll play full strength.  Especially if Brees comes back.  He'll need reps to shake of the rust and no way do they do it without first stringers.

    • 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)
