We blitz'd Gamble on the 59-yard catch to lose us the game

We didn't blitz Gamble, his guy stayed in to block, which gives him the option to blitz or play an area. They maxed protected, there wasn't anyone in his area, so he rightfully blitzed.

Why the fug was he covering Harry Douglas instead of Julio or White? That's bullshit and terrible call by Mcterrible.

Can't believe nobody's talking about the multiple O-Line holding penalties that occurred on that play (while Matt Ryan was in the end zone) that should have gotten us a safety and the win...

we're back to the normal refs now. it'll never happen in our favor.

We were in zone, and both Julio and White lined up on the left side of the field opposite of Gamble. It wouldn't make sense for Gamble to follow them over there when we're in a zone, but I agree there was a whole lot of things that were wrong on that play. We should've been in some type of prevent defense anyway. There's no way they were going to run the ball, and Rivera has got to know that.

It wouldn't have made sense to switch Gamble over in a zone in a NORMAL situation. When we're on the last drive by Atlanta, when they're backed up with no timeouts and having to move quickly, you tell the secondary (after the game White had up to that point) "Gamble goes to White's side, no matter what." That's basic football there. Simple as that. Bad job on McDermott's part. Hopefully he learned a lesson. Gamble would have at least made it a tougher catch, if not knock the pass down.

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
