Regarding the Falcons game and the playoff picture

It's worth pointing out that the two teams currently slotted into wil card bids, Detroit and San Francisco, are on bye weeks this week. So is another team in the wild card mix, Arizona. The other team in the hunt, Chicago, plays Green Bay.

A win against the Falcons ties our record with the Lions, puts us a game ahead of the Cardinals, and either ties us with the Bears or puts us a game up (go Packers!). Not sure how the tiebreakers work out.

That would also set us up next week for a chance to not only tie our record with the 49'ers, but go ahead of them with the head-to-head advantage.

Basically, a win against the Falcons puts us dead in the middle of the post-season conversation and puts us in position to jump in the driver's seat. I know every game is a "must win" game but.....

....this is about as must win as it gets.

Yep, we gotta have this game and then at least split the next two.  If we can only pick one, I'd rather beat the 49ers and lose to the Pats rather than the other way around.  At least that way we hand another NFC contender a loss.

 

If we can get to 6-4, then things get really interesting.  If we can't get to at least 6-4, then our goose is probably cooked.

If we win out, we win the division.

 

That's what I'm looking for

 

 

If we win each game left, we will make the playoffs, win the division, win the NFC, win the Super Bowl.

 

It's that simple really, no more losses.

 

 

I vote for this option.  Who do we need to contact to make this happen?

      Do You Agree With These Excuses?

      Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.

      I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me
