I've lost faith in Keotter. With the talent at skill positions we have on offense, there's no reason we shouldn't be scoring 27+ points per game.

I'm so fricking tired of seeing SJax run it inside the tackles on every new possession first down. It's so predictable it's absolutely absurd to do it when everyone knows it's coming. SJax and Quizz are so freaking slow, they will NEVER break off a long score. There's zero chance of that ever happening

I know that Antoine Smith isn't good running inside the tackles and he's supposedly not a very good pass blocker, but if he's elite as frick with the ball in space and going around edges outside the tackles, then how do you only give him 6 touches in a game, and 4 of them are inside the tackles run attempts? (That he still averaged 5 YPC on, I might add)

How do you have a weapon like this on the team and he hasn't had a game with more than 7 touches? He's scored in 5 of 6 games, and the only one he didn't score in, he only got 4 touches in the game, all of which were inside the tackles run attempts.

This is incompetent coaching.

Nolan or Smith can't seem to let go of Biermann either. Massaquio plays 1/3rd the snaps as Biermann or Osi and yet has a dozen more QB pressures and more sacks than both. Not to mention Peters is so much freaking better than Soliai and Jackson. Both those guys suck arse.

I like Dimitroff, but damn he sucks at picking players and evaluating talent. And Mike Smith, I don't even know what he does anymore. He lets Keotter and Nolan play the wrong people all damn game. Or maybe it's him mandating that and not Keotter and Nolan, I don't know. Either way, he's making poor decisions.

I agree with Beef 100%. Should we give the ball to Tone 25 times? No. But at least use him in a Sproles type role.

The Falcons will have some decisions to make this off season. Do we draft some defense or O-line? Whatever the case may be, we will needs some pretty big FA signings IMO.

It is a no brainer to start Smith, and speaks volumes about the current state of the coaching and admin professionals that he is not.

I've been saying for 2 weeks we need to lose out. We aren't going to the playoffs and we need playmakers on defense. Every game we win, we "fall" further down the draft order

Wouldn't hurt my feelings one bit. Liked the Matthews pick but everything else has been a fricking joke the past two years.

It was an easy pick. That's the only reason we didn't frick it up.

I thought they were going to anyway when there was so much chatter about them trading up for Clowney.
