Some things I am noticing other than the obvious..

Our prevent defense sucks. We let them have too many big plays in that last drive. I would have preferred that we played them tighter on that last drive.

While I am beyond impressed that we actually got a interception but damn how many balls does or secondary need to drop. I think we had 2 other opportunities for interceptions but dropped them yesterday and I know we had others in other games we have played.

This is the 2nd time (maybe more) that a single player has broken a tackle of our entire secondary (8 or more guys) on one play? WTF??


Positives

Drew didn't throw a interception!! yeahhh.

The fact that we won is awesome. IF we would have lost it would have been an uphill battle.

We got an interception!! They are very rare for us this year.

Giants on Monday is going to be a test and a great game. I hope like heck we are underdogs going into this game. We play better as underdogs.

+ Harper, another strong game, good tackles and a sack, snagging that INT would have been icing on the cake.
+ Shanle, important pick that swung momentum, good tackling.
+ Ellis, active on the D-line making good plays.
+ Greer, might be our best defender right now, he played a BIG game yesterday.
+ The D-line coming up strong when it mattered most.

~ Cameron Jordan, opened the game good but I want to see more.
~ Graham, good game al in all but needs to eliminate those drops.

- Blocking on returns, completely horrible, fire the ST-coordinator NOW!
- The running game, non existant, OL needs to nut-up and git er done!
- Screens, The Falcons had that page of the Saints playbook.

W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.

In a parallel universe yesterday we had 4 interceptions. We are covering with our backs to the quarterback. It didn't used to be that way and we used to dominate the interception category. Now, we play for the tackle after the catch!
