Flipping the switch

[Tomcatn]

How many posters thought we had started clicking last week? Just asking. I keep thinking back to what Derrick Brown had to say about "fool's gold" going into this game.

It was obvious last week Penix just imploded and gifted us a game.

offense was garbage vs the Falcons.   Garbage every game this season.   They can only make plays off an opening script or if given yards for clock

Last week we beat a jackass team that is not much better than our sorry jackass team. This week the shoe was on the other foot.

Feel free to go bump some threads. Some folks were saying others weren't true fans for pointing out the obvious that it was a win where our offense did very little and we just capitalized on the Falcons and particularly Penix Jr's many mistakes.

That game was an anomaly.  The Falcons did everything wrong and Pennix had one of his worst outings.  Things just aligned in a way that the final score didn't really tell the story.  We were outplayed in most regards.  

With that said, it was nice to see us not make any glaring errors and take advantage of mistakes.  The team look prepared.  Looking back from this week though it's painfully obvious they got to hide Bryce against the Falcons and that was probably the best upgrade you could give the team.

I'd like to, but what good would it do?

Bryce usually follows up outlier games with his baseline type of games, and even last week he was just mediocre. I'm tired of having a QB that needs everyone to operate at 110% in order for him to operate at 60%.

It's necessary to shine a light on the folks who have made it their mission to talk down to others as if they are wholly superior fans in every way because they encounter other fans who openly acknowledge and discuss basic truths they find inconvenient and challenging.

I honestly think it was bigger than just Penix. I think that whole team and staff came into that game thinking they couldn't lose and they could use it as an opportunity to work on some different things and basically just do whatever they wanted and still win. Yeah, we suck but you can't ever get too cocky in the NFL and I think they came into that game really cocky.

I did last year.

I bought into the idea that we turned the corner.

I know better now
