Falcons pregame thread

We say that every time he's hired a coach since Jim Zorn.
Ron didn't start Haskins because he was prepared and the best QB on the team last year, He started Haskins because that's Dans guy.

Nothing has changed.
Dan is still drafting the top 3 rounds.

People need to understand the Haskins pick just a couple years ago which was Snyder…our QB situation right now is a direct result of that decision.

Every time he makes an executive decision it always has lasting repercussions. RG3, Haskins, they always come full circle and we end up getting screwed years down the road.

Yeah I left that out of my anti Snyder rant because it is done and we cant get a do over on that pick. Since that Snyder has definitely given Ron autonomy though, but it doesn’t matter. He has carved his reputation in stone and I just don’t see how we ever get a top flight staff in the door unless we burn it ALL down and turn every fuckin good player into high draft picks. You wind up with a slew of ones and twos and someone will want in. Either way we are fucked for the foreseeable future.

Curtis Samuel is eligible to come off IR this week... Rivera said, "We'll see how it goes Wednesday. Our offensive coaches are fired up to see where he is. If he has a good day Wednesday, we'll progress and go forward."
Key will be how his groin responds to any work. As you know

Terry and Thoms need some help.

Humphries just isnt being targeted (is he not winning his routes or just overlooked?) and rookie Brown hasnt clicked yet. Sims is best as a no. 4, spot duty starter if needed bc of injury.

Cosmi, Scherff, Flowers all w PFF grades above 70
Roullier 64
Leno 69

I think being new he wanted to give Dan's guy a shot. IMO bad mistake. But I give Ron credit he cut him during the season once he saw we were going nowhere w/ him.

Synder has not drafted anyone after Haskins.

Cosmi was on their team of the week at RT, NOT the rookie team of the week, but the whole NFL. They mentioned his Pass protection is getting better each week (as you would hope) but he is looking like a very solid 2nd round pick at the very least, a looooong time since we had one of those.

T SAMUEL COSMI, WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM
PFF overall grade: 72.3

Cosmi has turned things around in a big way after getting baptized by Joey Bosa in Week 1. Over the last two weeks, he’s allowed only one pressure on 86 pass-blocking snaps. That’s quite the start for the rookie after switching from left tackle to right tackle this year.

Better than any other rookie Tackle, including Slater and Sewell

Of course not everyone puts any faith in what PFF say, so take it as you like

I like the production we are getting from Cosmi. Makes up for the lack thereof we are getting from Davis. I know he is limited in snaps but it is frustrating to see how glaring our LB weakness is and knowing we have to take baby steps with our first rounder.
