Run The F**king Ball, Sean!

Ingram was hurt you guys... he was questionable before the game with toe issues, gameplan was likely heavily on Kamara. Ingram got even more banged up during the game. I don’t blame the calls on the last drive... that was all brees.

The play-calling was directly attributable to the loss tonight...

And it was more than just the last drive, it was that entire second half...

This Atlanta coach knows Payton and he now owns Payton...

The fact that four defenders were around Josh Hill is evident of my point...

I think that proves my point, Brees throws to a guy covered by 4 people and had Ingram wide open in the flat. That’s not bad play calling that’s bad decision making by Brees.

Black, my point is we shouldn't have even been passing at that point regardless...

I think MI was hurt.
Look SP got ahead of himself. Kamara went down and MI was one injury away from totally destroying any gameplan SP had.

And the playcall at the end showed me that SP has lost his touch. He'll have to earn my respect again before I trust him as a playcaller.

Pete Carmichael as to the latter, as to the earlier point, you're right, this Thursday Night BS took its toll and players were dropping left and right tonight...

And would someone punch Jim Mora in the face when he says he doesn't have a problem with Thursday Night Games - the whiny b*tch never played a game...

He had eight game run heavy streak then in la he reverts back to payton of old. Then goes back to it against carolina and then reverts back in atl. Idk what his deal is but if you arent behind by two scores you continue to run the ball. Throw edmunds in there he is a hard nose runner if ingram was too hurt and see if he can handle it. That said i agree payton lost his touch and im not sure if he can earn my respect unless we win it all

He didn't even give Edmunds a chance.
It makes no sense. Freaking QB sneak and run the clock or something. Make Atl drain timeouts and kick a field goal. Run a flea flicker.... anything.
If you're going to force the ball, force it into Michael Thomas for frick sakes.

That's just it...we pass when from behind(even by a fg) and run when ahead. They just don't care about blowing teams out.

In all honesty, if Ingram could not get first downs then we had to pass. The receivers aren't getting a lot of first downs with their catches, so we need three chances for a big catch. The tight-window throws is a fluctuator with our team...they help and hurt, like that int.
