Official my god how have we sunk so low Panthers at Falcons thread

[Icege]

First half reactions:

• Sam has been playing well today. He's kept the ball moving with his legs, made good decisions, and put the ball in places where his guys can get it
• The officials have been atrocious. That first half was a poo show, so let's see if we get some make up calls in the second half.
• Joe Brady has been up and down as have been the OL.
• Tommy Tremble has been good today aside from the one drop, as has DJ aside from the bad call against him that took the TD away
• Zane G with the 57yd FG to end the half
• SHAQ THOMPSON IS BACK BAY BAY

Will Zane hit the game winner though? That's been his problem.

Chuba Hubbard fumble leading to At

anta field goal, touchdown D.J. Moore could not hold on to. Big difference makers. We know Darnold is not Tom Brady, but this is not on him. 

Sam has played just fine so far. Nothing to really complain about from him. He’s look at lot better if his guys could catch the goddamn ball, and if the refs would call TDs TDs.

I think the BIGGEST NEWS to come out of today thus far is that we FINALLY have got ourselves an honest-to-goodness KICKER!  

I was not expecting this and I welcome it at the same time.

Our guys need to catch the ball. Got a bad feeling Sam will get forced into INT's if we keep forcing ourselves in the 3rd and long. He's been playing great today.

What's the excuse for the defense giving up our lead special teams gave us?

I get that the league isn't the kind of place defense alone can win games anymore so I get this sounds nitpicky, but I'd like to see them get a couple more stops late in games. We seem to have real trouble against the rush.

Re: the offense, yes, it sucks. I have real concerns about the ability of this staff to evaluate talent on offense.

It is nitpicky and reactionary. If we had a competent offense the defense would be a lot better than they are in certain moments.

Both DJ and Sam were robbed on that "drop." Given how hard it's been on this offense to score points we really coulda used that call. fuging sucks.

Is Anderson even playing today?

Might be, but I think the problem is our D is ultimately too soft. I may be wrong but my opinion on the D isn't reactionary, it's after watching them over the last 4 games. let's both hope we get a chance to test if you're right tho, I would rather be wrong in this case.

Wondering the same

 

[Zaximus]

Lol you know it's a rough season when the high mark was a field goal before second half. 

[45catfan]

Here comes our albatross, the dreaded 3rd quarter.  Can we finally look like a professional football team after halftime?
