Atlanta is dog water and to lose to a team like this is just terrible. It’s like losing to the panthers honestly


Atlants is top 10 in defensive numbers for several metrics. They’ve lost about 5 to 6 1-score games, their issues were offense related. So that’s why no NFL team can be judged purely on record

Games like this show that our talent level is STILL mid tier at best... Wish Minshew could go against our PASSIVE defense cause Atlanta has been bringing heat!!!!

Story of the Colts over the past decade though. We never truely stink for long enough to get a group of blue chip guys together in the top 10-15 of the draft.

 

 We stink for one year grab a QB and try to move forward with mid talent around them.

Because he can't run any other way.  Its him.  Even when he's running with space to the outside, JT turns it inside.


You are right. People are blind to JT’s shortcomings. We’ve enough years of seeing it. Unfortunately you’re the ultimate contrarian messenger and that works against you on this front :)

No it's not rofl, Atlanta has a talented roster with mid coaching. The Panthers have the worst roster in the league with abysmal coaching.

Frank is gone and Carolina is now playing much better....

 

Ha! haha 

 

I meant how did the Panthers tie the game? The Packers were leading by at least 2 TDs. I took for granted that the Packers won the game.

 

The Jets were leading by 3 scores but Jacoby Brissett replaced Sam Howell and has the Commanders within 6 points.

Hey we only lost by 20 points to a crappy falcons team! Lol! Could be worse right? Right? Seriously, though what the heck happened to the discipline on this team?

i think its more of a talent issue .   we have no real weapons outside of pittman  the defense is average we dont have great cover linebackers or a good secondary .   run blocking has been horrible this year offensive line is overrated outside of nelson and kelly .

This team is beautiful. Haven’t really followed today. Let me guess. Alec pierce didnt do a damn thing today??

Pierce another great Ballard pick.

 

Ballard couldn't draft a play making WR if one came up and slapped him in the face

Everybody take a deep breath. 
 

in the words of Daniel the Tiger, “if you feel so sad and you wanna roar. Take a deep breath, and count to four.” 
 

in all seriousness, we still have opportunities left. Of the 3, this was the one to lay the giant turd that we left in Atlanta. 

have a merry Christmas and count your blessings.

    • It just seems like people have sold themselves the idea he was going to come out great this season which I think is and was completely unreasonable.   I hope to see some improvement by the end of the season, but I really don't expect a whole lot until sometime next season. AR has got so much catching up to do.   I mean, there's no doubt AR's struggles are affecting MPJ, but MPJ has never been a great separater and seeing a defender right besides MPJ is probably stopping AR from throwing his way at this point.   Also, to be clear, I'm not saying AR will DEFINITELY be great, but I do think we DEFINITELY don't know yet and people need to be a lot more patient with him.
    • They both couldn’t throw or work on footwork. To ignore this could be a possibility with AR is naive. Let’s see where he is by game 7. Especially when it looks like he went backwards  from last season.
    • Other than the fact that Luck was a proven NFL QB in his prime and that his shoulder rehab lasted 3x as long.   
    • His lack of experience was a well-known risk in drafting him and it's a big reason why some were skeptical (including me). On the flip side, it sort of seemed like people disregarded his lack of experience then in favor of things like potential and upside. But now he's struggling and it's showing. If anything, it's validated those initial concerns.   I tend to think WR drops following a QB from college to the NFL says as much about the QB as it does the pass catchers. But they need to do better. I think it will take a combination of improvements from both AR and the pass catchers.   Not sure if something is up with MPJ, but some "regression" this year was very predictable. At one point, I actually thought he might leave in FA when faced with prospect of re-signing with a run-first team and a young QB who is still learning how to throw short and intermediate passes (the area he operates). But he stayed...and I am glad he did. But if it continues, there are going to be a lot of people blaming MPJ, which is pretty ridiculous, when you think about just 6 months ago, people were talking about how great of a contract it was and that MPJ was a legit WR1 with AR.  
    • Last week,Rams home game, Sofi looked like a 49ers home game. Dallas and Vegas are that way too.
