FALCONS PRE GAME THREAD

He has always been a shitty interview but that was bad. He is no Jurgen Klopp. Goggle Jurgen Klopp funny quotes or interviews. I think we should do a reverse Ted Lasso and bring him over

That's hysterical. Maybe we should see what Jason Sudeikis is doing in the offseason.

QUOTE=PorkSkins;1348431]Although, I have as much confidence in this staff as I can beat up a silverback gorilla, I do think we win next Sunday. I have a feeling we'll blitz Ridder from the onset and rattle him a bit. I also think Jon Allen and Payne will come out possessed like maniacs.

I think we win by at least 10 points. I sense we're gonna play pissed off as a team and get the W. Then in typical Washington manner, we'll shit the bed the following week versus the Giants. That's a story for another day.

Oh no... I'm not falling for the banana in the tailpipe.

They should have played pissed off against the Bears after coming so close to beating the Eagles, but hey had no fire. The Bears made them look silly. I don't anticipate anything different this weekend, or this year, until they prove otherwise. They could honestly be 0-5 right now, and probably should be...[/QUOTE]

"You've been hanging out with this guy too long." (Great movie reference, Chief.)

It's ok guys, Ron has it figured out...

“I just think that first and foremost there was a good opportunity for us the last couple days to dive into several things, study some things, look at some things, evaluate what we do and how we do it, evaluate the way we're doing it," Rivera said. "And I think, going through it and in our conversations that we've come to some pretty good resolutions and some things that most certainly do need to be corrected, need to be fixed, and some things that we can do to help the players.”

14-3 here we come :)


Year four and he is evaluating some things and diving into some things. Jesus Christ how has this guy been a HC for so many years? Magic needs to tell him that if he wants to finish the year instead of being fired midstream he needs to not talk to anyone about anything. Not even the players. Just act like it is always game time and stand with your arms folded trying to stay awake.

This seasons a win because Snyder is gone. Its all change in the offseason so ride it out. Etc.

I get these thoughts, I do. But I think we have a number of players that deserve better than wasting a year of their career playing for nothing but a salary. We're 2-3, and while I doubt we have a shot at the playoffs as it stands, especially with RR and JDR until week 18, it's not a lost cause yet. I'd sack them now to give the players a chance to deliver something with a new guy in charge, if not a whole new staff..

I have no idea how this team will play … I’m not wasting anymore time watching in real time .. I’ll spend my Sunday’s doing something else and watch the game later .. it would not surprise me if we won or lost .. Harris better start thinking about how he is gonna get this fan base back .. Ron ain’t gonna get it done

Those thoughts are the silver lining, not an alternative to winning.

Im all in favor of shit canning those two losers. I don’t think we have the personnel to win with or without them honestly. We need a draft and a free agency period run by real football minds to get some more horses here.

There is only one way to get a fanbase back. Win. Harris isn’t magic. Neither is magic. Lol. They need at least one full off season. The fans will be back eventually. Firing Ron now would feel good and i guess you could promote EB and see how the players respond. I just think there is way more to it than that. At least one full off season worth of fixing. He literally was handed shit on a stick and the season started.

Yeah, Chase sucks.

Thanks for the numbers. I do think he flashes a lot on the field. He's one of the few brights spots so far IMO. yes he seems to disappear for a while at times, but through 4 games we've seen some obvious progress towards what we know he can be.

There was one play v Chicago that, to me at least, showed his game maturing. If I recall correctly, it was a draw play and he came rushing with outside contain, saw the run play, switched his leverage and shed his block immediately coming down the line and making the tackle. I don't remember anything like that in year one.

To me it's one of the signs he's developing. Will he stay with the team? I couldn't say at this point. But whether he develops into an all pro or not, I don't think he's a bust and I can see him having a career in the NFL. Maybe he's the next Clowney?

Right now I just hope he and Sweat scare the living daylights out of Ridder.
