The word from practice..

His brain fart of stepping out of bounds for no reason in crunch time reaffirmed to the coaches he makes mental mistakes.

but he at least caught it.....which is more than you can say most balls that go to Naanee.

Other than Smith? Yeah, pretty much.

Thought Tutu knew the offense coming from SD. AE looked good in preseason minus the drops and Pilares showed promise with his speed. I have a hard time imagining that we can find a way to get these guys on the field when we simple refuse to bring in more capable guys. Even in just certain packages.

well if Shockey can't go I assume we see someone getting more reps than usual as a recieving target. Cam needs more than just Smith and Olsen on the field (Naanee doesn't count at this point)

every now and again, as a fan, you have to just take a step back and realize that there isn't a chance in hell that you know more than the coaching staff. they are going to go with the guy that gives us the best chance to win the game. it's frustrating, i know. i almost destroyed a television at the bar i was at last weekend because of naanee on a few occassions. but there's a reason why they are paid millions and we're all eating wings and beer staring at a flashing box or sitting in the stands. if the decision to start lafell over naanee was truly as obvious as it seems, it would have been done already. and who knows, it could be done this weekend.

I'm not claiming I know more than Rivera. I'm sure he's spot on about which one is better at understanding the offense. But, let's be fair to Brandon, Naane played in this offense for awhile in San Diego and Brandon didn't have long at all to start learning with lack of OTAs.

Ask yourself this question: Who has performed better on the field?

    • The Panthers did a great job of countering the Falcons' pass rush in the run game. They utilized veteran wideout David Moore, a good run blocker on the perimeter, as the motion man to help with crack-toss plays and trap blocks. It was also interesting to see more Sean McVay wide zone concepts in Canales’ version, especially with the “insert” concept that is a table in these systems.   Second-year cornerback Chau Smith-Wade didn’t come out of the gates hot, but settled in and put forth a fine performance. His spacing in zone coverage tightened up and it began to have an impact later on—like on his pick-six of quarterback Michael Penix Jr. He also showcased good matching capabilities while having some impressive man reps and tackles in space. You have to appreciate how well Ejiro Evero’s defense rallied to the football. Some runs that would, in the past, go for chunk yardage were contained. Tackling was improved on all three levels of the field. Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan was once again the leader in receiving yards (48) on Sunday, but he struggled away from the box score with a couple of drops. As head coach Dave Canales noted Monday afternoon, the Falcons did a great job staying in phases on McMillan, especially at the top of routes. Rookie safety Lathan Ransom showed more flashes of control as a tackler. He continues to show the physicality that is needed in Evero’s defense while having the athleticism and downhill burst to click and close sideline to sideline or north/south. https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/09/23/panthers-film-review-falcons-week-3/86308214007/
    • Horn + Jackson + Smith-Wade might be the best CB trio we've had in a minute.
    • I think we would have had a good shot. I believe at the time we had already traded for the first overall pick, so Baltimore could have then immediately get whatever replacement they wanted for Lamar in the draft or trade for someone else. I still am baffled we were one of the teams that put out that ridiculous statement about not pursuing Lamar.   Yeah, let’s not trade for the franchise carrying, mvp winning, all pro top 5 qb in league to help take this franchise higher places. They should have at least tried. They were willing to go all in on Watson but not Lamar, I don’t understand Tepper.
