    Time for the Falcons to use some higher round draft picks on o-linemen. 4 offensive linemen drafted in 6 years. Only 1 (Matthews) being a first rounder. 4th rounder is the next highest pick. Either that or go sign/buy more than just Mack.

    Signing Mack was huge, but they need at least 1 more near elite OL. Ryan has already been sacked 19 0r 20 times this season and we see he's constantly pressured. He deserves big credit for staying cool.

    Here’s a question- if there’s a choice between Tevin and Devonta, who do you keep? Devonta seems to be dealing with a lot of injuries, I wonder if he’s going the way of most NFL backs.

    Freeman got paid, now he’s conveniently always hurt. Saving those legs for a couple of years of production before his last big contract lol

    Freeman if his injuries are temporary. Coleman has shown quite a bit this season though, and Smith has surprised me. Coaches seem to have broke Smith from using the long sideways jump cuts he favored in college, those are too slow and lateral for this league.

    Yeah, that was terrible. That drive was really looking good. I’m glad this game isn’t against the Ain’ts.

    Lose this game and the season looks almost hopeless, you'd think they'd go with what has proved to work.
    The Falcons will have 10 million invested in Julio's next td.

    Season was pretty much hopeless when Neal and Deion went down.

    I still hold out hope, but I still call the Turkish capital Constantinople and I'm convinced The Beatles will get back together.

    Say what you will about Dan Quinn, but the man has some stones.

    No doubt, I think he'll win our first Super Bowl in the next few years. Just get healthy and add a few more pieces.

    Robert Alford is a huge liability. He got torched all night and called for two holds. This game should not have been close. With that said, the best play of the night was the 56-yard FG.

    It is bad when you have to go for 50 plus yard field goals toward the end of the game because you know your defense cannot stop anybody at the end of the game. Our defense cannot allow a receiver to h at you on a 50 yard pass. Quinn does have boulders.

    The secondary is crippled and maybe the best cover LB in the NFL is also out for the season.

    I know they have 3 defensive backs out for the season, but they still should not let anyone get behind you 50 yards downfield up 2 scores. You have to keep them in front on you and make them run clock.

    No doubt, but having all the safeties who trained with the starting defense out has to be tough to overcome, those are the players responsible for supporting CBs when receivers get by them. Also not having that great cover LB in the middle is huge.
