That was some punk-@ss schite; we need to run a few screens his way and let Peat or Ramczyk just plow into his arse; in fact, I'd run three different screens his way till he made a course correction in his attitude...

Another one is Keanu Neal; since he got that first lucky hit on Kamara, he's been leading with the helmet on AK since; time to draw him in and run a trap-wham run right up his @ss as well...

Yep. People don’t realize that offensive lineman can be just as salty.

Re: Falcons' Desmond Trufant fined for trying to punch Saints' Michael Thomas

I've seen a lot of replays this year of players throwing punches and only getting flagged for it. I think that should be an automatic ejection. And if it is how are they being allowed to continue to play in the game? I'm not talking about refs missing the punch. I've seen it with a ref looking square at the two players.

Swing and a miss, huh? That has to be a good euphemism something recent in Falcons history but I can’t quite put my finger on it.
