Re: Atlanta game

Their certainly better than the last coordinators we had. There was a GIANT call to get rid of them both last year.

You actually believe a guy named JacQuizz will be a force in the NFL ?
JacQuizz Rogers is a 3 year back at most. We have all seen him run. You guys messed up with Lofton don't mess-up with Turner to, he actually has respect here.

I consider Nolan a lesser coach of the defense than any of those guys. I remember when Nolan coached San Fran and they never had a defense or an offense for that matter. He went to Denver, not even sure what denvers defense was like last year, it didnt stand out to me none.

Now you got Nolan going to Atlanta, question I am asking is, what is on that roster defense wise that Nolan is really going to use and make a good defense out of? Answer is, I see pretty much nothing except maybe 2 players that are at least decent, I think one is a LB and the other a CB. I think the Falcons last D-Coordinator probably got about as much out of that unit as one could get, I cant imagine Mike Nolan getting anymore out of it, he may end up getting less since Lofton is gone.

I dunno about Koetter, is Koetter the OC they hired from JAX?

All I know is is that they trying to change up to a passing team now more than a running team, they need to know if Matt Ryan can succeed in such a system, when Ryan has been forced to air it out, it has not been a pretty sight.

I wish you guys could have watched that game last night. The starters were on fire. Matt Ryan was just too agressive on one throw and forced the ball to Roddy White, resulting in a pick, but other than that he played a fantastic game. Matt Ryan's deep balls were on point, and he was a lot more accurate.

I caught the replay on NFL Network late last night, and I was unimpressed :rolleyes:

Re: Atlanta game

Its why I dont look much into it, if they throwing deep balls like that in the 1st preseason game, I just dont believe any team is going to think another team is going to do it.

Look at the Saints, throw it deep team, they dont even do it in Preseason. Baltimore might of just flat out been caught off guard by it since.....who the hell does it?

I see that to. Unless PM is the real deal, and Rivers shows up. Both can out gun Ryan. I think.

Yes, and Nolan didn't want Lofton. Dimitroff would have found a way to get Lofton back if he wanted him.

Betcha he regrets that decision... He wasn't planning on Dent being the starter, and even that didn't work out so well last night...
