[QUOTE=skinsfan69;1293830][QUOTE=SunnySide;1293828]Sitting at 2-2, regardless of how we got here, is nice.

Seems like the Saints are inconsistent and a winnable game. No pass catchers but Kamara is healthy w lots of touches yesterday in a 27-21 loss to the NYG. Jones had over 400 yards passing.

W Saints
L Chiefs
L Packers
W Broncos

If we can go 4-4, we have our bye week 9.

Just keep fighting and hanging in there. The D has to get better.[/QUOTE

1-3 seems like more of the reality.[/QUOTE]


Well it does but good luck is better than bad luck and honestly if we shit the bed over the next several weeks who cares? Likewise if we pull it together on defense (seems highly unlikely but…) over the next several weeks than that lucky win is huge.

We finish with two against the birds and one against the Giants- all winnable. Dallas has been relying heavily on the run - and I think our D can handle the run. Plus ya gotta think Dallas is playing way over their heads on offense. We just have to be in the conversation for the division with five weeks to go.

I am looking at it this way too. TBH of the four next opponents the only team playing consistent over the last couple of weeks is Green Bay. Chiefs won in Philly but it was pretty ugly they couldn't stop the Philly offensive juggernaut. Broncos will be tougher if they get Bridgewater back but they just let Lamar Jackson throw all over them.

Kyle Pitts, not impressed

Imagined getting owned by our defense?

That is so sad, but true...

They have to figure it out though right? I mean it is quite baffling. [I]On paper[/I], it looked like a better defense than last year, and it's the same coaches, but it feels historically atrocious at times.

Same. Now I didnt see much of him in college but read all the hype reports.

I was expecting more and he didnt play like hes a fleet footed 6'6"

Still so early though but these 1st round sure fire TEs lately have not panned out.

OJ Howard, Engram, Njoku, Hayden Hurst .. Hockenson and Fant are good but Thomas has more production.

Re: Falcons postgame
 

Yeah Pitts may be one of those 1 year college wonders, too early to tell tho

Re: Falcons postgame
 

Pitts was a couple of catches away from having a pretty big day. You can see the talent he just needs to develop.

Fuller made a big play against him at the goal line knocking away a catch.

Contested catch rate, underrated stat. Pitts gonna have to adjust to NFL

*sigh* the dude blew a major coverage on the 40 yard td. This is McCain right?

The pointing the finger is bullshit.

Re: Falcons postgame
 

If the defense showed up week 1 , we would be 3-1 right now.. The NFL is such a play by play outcome
