Are We Really Not Going To Talk About This?!

Lost in all the sauce, we actually had ANOTHER chance to win the game after Eddy missed his 2nd kick. 3rd and 1 from ATL's 46 yard line, our defense can make a huge stop and get us ONE MORE chance for a FG. Follow the link and go have a gander at 13:45.

Burns (who is known to do this SO MANY times), takes a bad angle yet again and let Mariota slip away on 3rd an 1 when it should have been a 5 yard loss and 4th down. It's just who he is at this point. It happens too frequently to warrant a huge pay day.

The D overall really fell part at crucial moments

Burns was definitely a no show all game. Donte was definitely doing his best swiss cheese halloween costume. Shaq missing tackles all over the field. Derrick Brown had some big plays, but that's about it. CJ got torched all game sans the gimme int that should have sealed the game.

Gotta take them 2 firsts and ship him on it’s a no brainer he’s not a franchise pass rusher he’s a Montez Sweat level player who does their best work opposite the guy 

If you want to get paid like an elite player, you HAVE to make those plays. Time and time again he has missed wide open sacks or tackles in critical moments by taking horrible angles. Dude is just not clutch and doesn't take over a game. If a team is offering two 1sts for him, take that sh*t and run.

Was the only one hearing the pops of pads today?  This team laid it all out there on the field.  We played hard as hell.  I saw incredible effort and we won today on everything but the scoreboard 

Playing hard in no way invalidates the idea that Burns misses more plays than he makes.  Both can be true at the same time.

The point here is that we now have the interior push we lacked.  Brown is playing well and pushing the pocket, yet Burns is still over-running plays in crucial situations.  If that can't be coached out of him, he will never progress as a player.

The least worry for me on this team is Brian Burns.  I would rather talk about the other DEs on this team being invisible

Especially when next years he’s gonna want at least 20 mil a year. We really comfortable giving Burns 100 million coming up here soon?!

The Marcus Mariotta lead Atlanta Falcons scored 37 by-god points on our supposedly good defense today.

I keep telling you all he's a 3-4 outside linebacker.  If they really were offered 2 1sts for him and turned it down I'm starting to question some people around BOA.

I agree with this 100%.  I said if we were offered 2 1st rounders as has been reported we should have traded him unless we were going to shift to a 3-4 next year.

Burns is a terrific pass rusher, but teams use that against him and the Panthers in the run game.  It's happened a lot.  Love Burns the pass rusher, but he has to be turned loose when it's obvious passing downs or be given the space to make plays against the run in space, not engaged at the LOS.
