We need another offensive threat at receiver to help Tetairoa.  Maybe XL being sat down helps him the way last year helped Bryce.  I'm starting to really like how Canales deals with struggling players.

Coker coming back could be huge but it's still a few weeks away.  Sanders also looks like he has the ability to be that weapon as well.

Depends on if it really was a hamstring injury or not. If it was a healthy scratch I'd be more inclined to believe it was a benching for poor performance.

When any other team goes up by two scores and is dominating on defense, it's smart to go to the run game. Twisting that into, "We don't want Bryce to kill us" is beyond ridiculous. 

The final drive of the game before the kneel out? Yea, mostly runs while up 30-0. The drive before that? 4 of the 9 plays were passing plays. The drive before that was 5 passing plays from the 9 on the drive. The other drive to start the second half? 2 out of 5 plays were passing plays. There was balance. I do not understand why some of y'all are so desperate to disparage the QB that you're outright lying about what took place in front of all of us.

We weren’t so much dominating on D most of that game as it was just Penix being horrible.  Plays were clearly there to be made on our D.  

Atlanta’s issue is what our issue so often is….when we gift games and make meh defenses look like the 85 Bears.  Thats Bryce.  Not our opponents being great.  Today was Penix doing that. 

the fact we don’t have an offense….is going to remain a massive issue when teams aren’t gifting us.

That’s gotta be the weirdest 30-0 win ever.  The defense obviously played well, but uh, I don’t feel some surging confidence in the team afterwards like you would expect after that.  Just whelmed.

My biggest takeaway from the game is Penix is fuging terrible.  Thank God he made Bijan, an actual threat, a complete non factor.

Hopefully they build on it and carry some momentum going forward.

This is the correct take.  It’s not sustainable.  Happy we won but no way this can be done on a week to week basis.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
