I respect his opinion, one of the GOAT.....seen a lot of football. With Cam Newton, he would have gone for that yard. No different than a goaline drive......and unless you get cute who has stopped Cam looking for a yard.

why do we care what this guy thinks?

Because he's saying what many are thinking. Your team seems to be finding ways to lose by not taking chances.

No cannot win games playing it safe..And your QB fumble after triping over his O-line guy is no excuse because you got the ball back and that is all that mattered.

He's right, people can blame cam for the fumble all they want but at the end of the day we recovered the ball and still had chance to convert for the first down.

One of the dumbest decisions I could think of was not going for the 1st down.

If we were down by a touchdown I could understand not going for it but they only needed to get in field goal range with over a minute left. WTF WTF WTF

as any NFL expert would tell you, we made the right decision. There's a good chance we would have made it, but there's a very good chance they would have surged through the line and stopped us. Which seems to happen most of the time. If they got it that close to the field goal range they would have easily won. We did the right thing with them having no timeouts, very little time and the way our defense had played. Rivera showed confidence in his defense there. We got a perfect punt. I don't know why we were in a 4-3 defense instead of a prevent defense. We should have had a lot of guys back deep and that would have never happened.

141 left didnt want to get chipped away. The NFL experts are flat wrong. Especially when Cam Newton is in the backfield.

okay so I guess you are the NFL expert. Not the people that have been in the league for decades. You would be saying we should have punted if we went for it and missed it. Because that is how most fans are. If we fail trying something then we should have done the other thing. Because they always want to be right and the coaches are just stupid and have no business being in the NFL and know nothing about football. Teams should just hire fans to be coaches since fans know so fuging much.

I disagree sir. You have to know your team. This secondary got embarassed by the giants 4th string wr last week. Nakamura WAS getting beat the whole game. And still your going to trust his coverage skills to seal the win versus the best 1-2 wr group in the league? My favorite qoute is the definition of insanity is doing the the same thing over and over and expecting diffrent results.

Know your team, i go for it on 4th and short with cam.

either choices would have been good........the fact that atl had to drive 70 yards to get in fg range with 59 left is a great scenario for a good or bad defense idc what you say we are not that bad of a d where we know a team is passing but can't stop it......you take nakumura out and we win that game point blank.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      By Paa Langfart · Posted

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
