Falcons postgame

Scherff with a sprained MCL - likely out 2-3 weeks. Dang.

One thing that came to mind is that Chase has been flagged, at least once recently, for tackling and bringing a QB to the ground. I wonder if that caused some hesitation and led him to go for a hit, as supposed to wrap and tackle Ryan.Yeah I think he has a ref target on him for sure.

Matt Ryan does do a pump fake which perhaps caused Chase to pull up a bit not wanting a late hit .. but Chase is a supreme athlete and that is just poor body control, poor angling on his part ... seemed like he assumed Ryan would get rid of it and didnt want to come in too hot that he couldnt avoid contact if he did release it

I repeat he throws a forearm at Ryans head for no reason.

2020 CY would have stripped that ball for a TD.

After watching the play the forearm check is a very odd maneuver.

Nah, he clearly starts out with a two hand shove, and his forearm comes up to the neck area right under the mask. If he was going for the head he would have knocked him into next week.

Maybe lifting his arm so he wasn't pushing through Ryan and it clocks him? The sequence looks so awkward.

Here comes the injuries:

@AdamSchefter
Washington Football Team CB Torry McTyer tore his ACL vs. Atlanta and will miss the rest of the season, per source.

I feel we got lucky here with both. Good news..Wes Schweitzer can play.

I think Logan Thomas makes a couple of those catches Seals-Jones missed or flat out dropped.

Agree
