I don't hate players. I hate stupid decision making by a front office. Taking a RB in the top 10 when modern NFL running games are entirely based on OL play and scheme is a ridiculous waste of resources.

I’m comically anticipating the whole slew of nfc south games tomorrow!
Who wants to win this cripple fight of a division?!?

I wouldn't be shocked at all if the Falcons lay an egg tomorrow and lose to this godawful Panthers team.

Kicked a game winning field goal while taking a knee inside the 5.

Absolute embarrassment. Arthur Smith will still have Blank’s full support though until he has a 4th shitty year in a row.

Getting field goaled to death by a 1 win team while they took a knee inside the end zone is fricking abysmal

They HAVE to get a starting QB. Tank from here and get a top 5-10 pick.

I don't trust Fontenot to pick one, nor do I trust Smith to develop one. Fontenot's draft record is as bad as Smith's coaching record.

That sorry sack of shite should have been sent back from Charlotte on the back of a FedEx truck yesterday.

The only positive is that the NFC South is so shitty, we had a chance to get into the #4 slot and get blown out. Now, mercifully, that shouldn't be an option and we can have a top 10 pick or so.

Are there any great head coaching candidates out there?

All in for Harbaugh?

I'd love Harbaugh, but there's no way he'd come here. He is nowhere near enough of a yes man for Arthur Blank and Rich McKay. Same reason we'd never have a chance to get Tomlin if the Steelers move on.

He won't hire a coach who has the fortitude to tell him to get the frick off the sideline and get the frick out of the war room on draft day.

Nothing will change until Blank sells the team.

Chris Dimino on 680 this morning said that both Blank and Bob Kraft should reach out to Kirby.

He's not getting fired this year.

But he does need to rehaul the entire offensive staff.

As an Alabama fan, he's on my current list of "People who can die in a fire any time", so I'm good on that guy. Hard pass.

He'd be better than the bum playing TE now. If they have a QB in mind for this upcoming draft, I would gleefully include Pitts in a trade up to get him.

Drake Maye or Jayden Daniels would be my preference.

I love Maye. He's gonna be the best QB in this class IMO.

He reminds me of Ben Roethlisberger.

To be fair to Pitts, he is still not 100% coming off that MCL surgery.

But you aren't completely off-base.
