***New Orleans at Atlanta*** (+5.5) (44) (1 Viewer)

[Ministry of Pain]

Saints roll in Week 1, yes/no?

Go!

 

[Rubi]

Winston when healthy can put points up and turn the ball over. Atlanta has a suspect defense and not much offense beyond Pitts.
It'll be a slow death for the birds.

Saints- 34
Falcons-14

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Didn’t dean pees “retire” like 5 years ago?

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Let the taysom hill fetishizing continue

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Guess we over estimated Winston and that new head coach's abilities.

Looks terrible so far

Waiver add of the week since he’s back to TE eligible.

I thought about drafting him very late in a dynasty league but wasn’t sure if he would be as involved now that Peyton is gone

I’m annoyed that I didn’t keep him in the FBG contest.

But really liking that Atlanta has mostly looked respectable so far.

Just checking in to let everybody know (since these things sink to the bottom anyway) that I benched Grady Jarrett in the waning moments of roster decisions today. Nice. Grady has two sacks and twenty points.

 

[AAABatteries]

Way too early to make any assumptions about the game or season but this is the way I thought the Falcons could be competent. Granted, I'm not sure if the defense or Winston is more responsible for the 7 points the Saints have but I'm pleasantly surprised by the offense. If Mariota can limit his mistakes he has some weapons. The big questions to me were O-line and Marcus turning the ball over. Special teams were good in the first half - will need strong play there all season.

 

[That one guy]

Pitts SZN starting a little slower than I’d have liked

 

[zamboni]

Just looking at stats - London seems to be producing. How is he looking?

 

[AAABatteries]

That's the exact play Mariota can't make. He had the first - slide and protect the ball. Dumb.

 

[AAABatteries]

He's looked solid. He has the size and has taken some hits well. He and Pitts are a great combo if the Falcons can continue to run it well.

 

[VikingFrog]

We all thought Dalton supplanted Taysom, but it will be interesting to see what happens with Winston injured.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Impressive effort by Falcons so far. Jameis to locker room also.

 

[AAABatteries]

Looked like Winston was grabbing his helmet. Hill has been the best part of their offense today.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Jameis is fine I guess

 

[AAABatteries]

LOL - that's the Falcons defense we expected.

That was one of the very few times I’ve seen a player go into the blue tent and then pop back out to run the next series.

...

Saints can’t stop Patterson so it probably won’t matter ... but it’s not time for the Falcons to relax.

 

[ShamrockPride]

So let me get this straight...the Saints traded up for Olave, spent the 11th pick on him, and can only find a way to look his direction twice?

There’s no relaxing ever - defense is bad and they played soft last series which is just so damn frustrating.

 

[AAABatteries]

Thomas has taken over the game

 

[Ministry of Pain]

The Falcons aren't blowing a big lead again are they?

 

[Osaurus]

Great to see Michael Thomas back

 

[IHEARTFF]

Lol at that 2 pt trash play to Ingram

 

[sho nuff]

Im more curious of the use of Kamara. Goalline he was blocking then a direct snap to Ingram later on a two point try

 

[Doug B]

Bad play call on the two pointer. Direct to Kamara or Taysom Hill, sure. But Ingram?

 

[AAABatteries]

Falcons should go for it on 4th no matter what.

 

[AAABatteries]

THANK YOU

 

[Sand]

Wow, what an amazingly bad call - game changing.

 

[AAABatteries]

Don’t play to lose

 

[AAABatteries]

Wow, what an amazingly bad call - game changing.

Ha - it was weak but a penalty

 

[AAABatteries]

Lol

 

[AAABatteries]

Not going for it? Way to ***** out Arthur. Disgraceful.

 

[-OZ-]

NO imploding too

Spoke too soon

 

[Sand]

Intentional grounding? WTF?

 

[AAABatteries]

This was inevitable - Arthur should be embarrassed for his 3rd and 4th down. I hope he loses.

 

[AAABatteries]

Good - I can't stand that coaching by the Falcons. Totally deserve to lose

 

[Punxsutawney Phil]

Wow, what a comeback.

 

[AAABatteries]

There's a reason your stadium is half empty - you are a ****ing embarrassment.

 

[Doug B]

BS ending

Lattimore being a punk

 

[-OZ-]

WTF is even happening?

 

[Doug B]

Saints lucked out.

Maye — just catch the INT next time.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Both teams not very good?

I'm asking

 

[Doug B]

Y’all are probably going to clock us in N.O. Falcons were doing that even when we had Brees.

 

[-OZ-]

Good - I can't stand that coaching by the Falcons. Totally deserve to lose

Kinda the best thing that can happen for them. They looked stupid at times, respectable at times, and lost. NO was a strong candidate for the playoffs but didn’t look consistent enough.

 

[Doug B]

It’s one game. Not a ton to conclude— both squads were Jeckyll & Hyde.

 

[Sand]

26-10 is the new 28-3.

No joke. Once they finally got some pass protection it was night and day. Not sure what they changed, though.
