Bijan over Jalen Carter aside, I’d like to introduce everyone to the defensive tackle with the NFL’s highest pressure rate through week 6:
Ruke Orohroro (~20%)
It’s a long season, but if it continues to trend up and to the right, Terry Fontenot better be getting some apologizes.

All the falcons had to do after having one of the worst pass rushes for like a decade now was spend one offseason drafting UGAs best pass rusher that year
I see what you’re doing, and it isn’t totally incorrect as the team often ignored obvious SEC caliber defensive talent, but Jalen Walker and James Pearce aren’t in the top-6 of best/most impactful people on this defense (yet).
Jeff Ulbrich is the MAN.

Having to use silent counts at home is so embarrassing
This neighbor is the biggest Falcons hater I have ever seen, my gosh.
I was at the game. Yes, a lot of Bill fans - it was Bills Mafia’s once-a-year, “designated home away from home” game. They had 15k people for a festival in Grant Park Sunday to tailgate and watch the games. Fans were pretty cool and they picked Atlanta because of “the bad arse stadium and setup downtown” and all of them being able to stay at the new Insignia.
But it was still 60/40 Falcons. Not great, but, fanbases for good teams travel like that in the NFL. I remember during the Matt Ryan hay days Carolina would be a Falcons home game.
Crowd for us tonight was lively. Fun time.
Continue to bitch from the couch, the rest of us will enjoy Sunday’s this fall.

“Other team needs” = Jalen Carter, yeah we know big dog and you aren’t alone.
Just got back from the Benz. Beautiful defensive performance and our drafted stars all made plays. Just a great evening.
Go look at Josh Allen’s stats. Almost as impressive a look for our defense as Bijan was for our offense.

Here’s hoping.
Honestly, the best FO in Atlanta right now is likely the Hawks. What Onsi has done this past off-season is jaw dropping. I still can’t believe that he was able to fleece the Pelicans TWICE.
Either way. Go Dirty Birds.
I love all of my Atlanta sports teams, but there isn’t a team that sets the city ablaze when they’re winning quite like the Falcons. They need to hold up their damn end of the bargain.

Per Mike Conti, the Falcons have the #3 defense in the league and #7 offense.
Considering over half the contributors on the roster were drafted talent, I’ll give Terry his flowers. He isn’t Howie Roseman, but my gosh, he isn’t Micky Loomis.
Smile, geez.
I’ve been a board lurker a while… wish you’d be as hard on the real estate company in Cobb county for squandering John Coppolella’s rebuild.

Agree to disagree.
Our front line right now is most certainly not worst in the league. As a matter of fact, their win rate is top-half of the league. It’s certainly more of a “by committee” approach, but Dorelous and Harrison and Orrohorro are improving greatly.
Only a few real misses, namely, Troy Anderson and Marlon Davidson. Horrendous.
Pitts certainly wasn’t the *best* selection with what was available, but hes had some tough circumstances. Penei Sewell should have been the pick.
But every other first after that? London, Bijan, Penix, Walker and Pearce… I like what we’ve got. Just need consistency.

In terms of draft -
They didn’t miss on any first round picks. I’d walk away with our guys the last few years no questions asked, especially Bijan. He looks like a generational player.
Every NFL team has *some* holes. The design of the cap is means almost every team does.
But outside of kicker when he’s outside; there isn’t a single position group that is below league average, IMO. *Maybe* corner without AJ.

The Falcons have drafted well.
It is a good roster.
The coaching staff is at its best, mid-grade.
Today we saw what a good Penix/Bijan/Pitts/London barrage can look like.
Baby birds defense is promising. A lot to like - last week was truly bizarre.
Glad the Birds could lift the spirits of the football statesmen in Georgia after Saturday night in Athens.

re: Any of you ATL baws go/been to Alive in Roswell?

Look, Roswell/Alpharetta/Marietta/John’s Creek are all fine places to raise a family, send your kids to decent public schools, and get a little bang for your buck.
But trying to pass off OTP as “cool,” particularly Roswell, is hilarious.
No shame in not wanting to pay $1.5M+ for a house in Buckhead/Highlands/Vinings and then have to strike a check at 35k per kiddo at Westminster/Lovett/Pace, but the pontificating of “crime” and how ITP is “no longer desirable” is a status cope I haven’t seen in quite some time.
On-topic: Alive is a nice outing.

Alabama and Ole Miss have hovered around 70% OOS because of their scholarship programs.
Those schools have bet big on getting the kids of “rich parents” becoming part of their national network for a decade and a half has worked quite well.
The footprint, including places like NYC, is impressive. Alabama’s investment banking academy is annually placing 20+ kids a year on Wall Street.

re: Who here has been arrested and jailed?
Posted by PCH_WaHo on 7/12/25 at 9:15 pm to LSUTANGERINE
I have. Once in college, once as an adult.
Tuscaloosa jail was fine - mostly small time drug offenders, minus the few murderers being transferred. Everyone played blackjack for cigs and no one could count to 21. Pretty lax.
Atlanta Fulton county sucked. Was there 24 hours and I’m telling you; every 18 year old should have to do a weekend there. Crime would go down across the board, expeditiously.
