Lets cover it all and point out why some of the crap I am reading is just that... crap. Please correct any of the below if you find that something is unfounded.



"We should be playing Teddy's game plan and running more".

~ Well. Mr. Bridgewater and our run game never had to play out of a hole. What do most teams swap to when they are two scores down? Passing.

~ Our Line wasn't blocking for crap and the run game wasn't there. If the O-Line is out of sync and there is no blocking you cant run or pass.

~ 'Drew is padding his stats'.. 2016 called and they want their comment back. He has been out nearly 1/2 a season, there is nothing to pad. When you are down by 2 and in the 4th Quarter you pass to catch up, its basic football understanding.

~ Drew is just staring down receivers... You mean the same receivers that need to be replaced because they couldn't catch the drip in a Korean whore house? Drew is doing what Teddy did... waiting for Michael Thomas to be open so that someone catches the damn pass.



Lets talk Offensive Line:

~ The Falcons defense had 6 sacks, a defense that took a half a season to accumulate 6 total scaks before Sunday. I see comments of 'blaming the offensive line is just avoiding the real QB problem'... Do you even understand football?

~ Murry averaged 2.4 YPC, has his lowest since week 3.

~ Falcons defense had 5 tackles for losses. (We had 4 and 1 sack)

~ Vick Beasley had 1.5 sacks and his time to sac was 3.34 seconds, 16th fastest in the league (that isn't a coverage sack, it is an offensive line failure to touch him).



Now lets talk about the Defense

~ Allowed 24 first downs, worst all season.

~ Allowed 143 yards rushing, worst since week 1.

` Allowed 317 yards passing, worst since week 3.

~ Atlanta had 7+ more minutes with the ball than we did. (SEVEN #$*&ing MINUTES)

~ Atlants was our Defenses worst showing since week 3.

~ If our defense let teams put up 26 every game against Teddy we would have lost to Dallas and Jacksonville and he would be 4-2.



To sum it all up:

All of that sh1t above and the QB position is the problem...????



One other thing.. I don't recall hearing one damn murmur about play calling or our QB being done when we beat the Cardinals 31. The game where Murry averaged 4.9 YPC, the offensive line blocked and the defense was stifling.



Just because we lost a game, doesn't mean we need to lose our $%^*ing minds as well.
