Re: Falcons pregame thread
Ron when asked about Kyle Allen taking over if TH struggles " I have not considered that at all"

Now I would imagine that is Ron trying to give a boost of confidence to TH. Which is fine, except u basically just told your current backup quarterback (who easily could be seeing playing time this year with TH’s injury history) that he is such a turd nugget that you basically forgot he was on the team. How about you say something like “i have faith in both Taylor and Kyle”. Isn’t that like coaching psychology 101? ![]() |

How is saying “i have faith in both guys” putting any pressure at all on TH? Not only would TH probably understand the answer, but I really doubt he is looking over his shoulder at Kyle Allen regardless of what anyone says. Hell I dont think I would and the last time I played quarterback was with the neighborhood crew when i was 9 years old. Also of course Kyle Allen is happy to even be a backup and i agree he knows that but if he gets put in a game you don’t want comments like that running through your brain I would imagine. |

Guess he has short and long term memory loss. His best season , by far, was with an MVP quarterback. Other than that he has not been very successful. |

I think RR and our situation proves just how hard it is to find a top 15 type Qb. He tried for Stafford, settled for Fitz over the other less than desirable options. I think RR would give his best pinky for a competent QB right now. ------------- Im guessing we see Allen before Fitz is cleared to play. Still early. Heinike still gets 2 or so more games but his window is closing. Question is .. does Heinke's grit and off schedule abilities outweigh Allen's ability to get the ball out quickly and to teh right guy. |

Sorry. It is too easy to be negative with this team, because I am going to be correct like 80 % of the time and who doesn’t like being correct? However in the name of hopes and dreams IF we do win Sunday, and clearly we SHOULD be able to we are 2-2 and than you cross your fingers and pray as we run the gauntlet. If we lose to Atlanta than there will be no more talk of hopes and dreams in 2021. In all actuality this game is as code red as code red gets. It is like fire engine red code red. |

But I have a hard time with this narration that the Falcons are worse than us. We're coming off a beat down and they are coming off a win. It's a show down between two really bad teams at the moment. I hope we win, but to me it's a toss up. Envoyé de mon SHV48 en utilisant Tapatalk

Oh Frenchy trust me I am the last person on this board that will be surprised if we lose. I won’t be surprised if we lose bad. I also won’t be surprised if we win. I mean ATL is definitely not Buffalo but they have a combination of qb and te that will absolutely rip our lb’s assholes in two if they drop back in coverage. Nobody in the league is plainly worse than us in the big picture or the small picture. |
