I can believe how bad Ray Edwards has been in a Falcons uniform.

His only decent seasons were when he was across from Allen.

This is the issue with the Falcons. Still checking it down when down by 20 points.

 

[Sarnoff]

Not even able to convert the garbage TD the Giants are willing to give up here.

Why does a Giant spread his arms and pretend he's a Jet after a sack?

 

[Dez]

Has a team in the playoffs ever scored exactly 2 points before today ?

It's actually surprising Osi didn't get flagged for that tap on Ryan's head during the sack.

Good to see that not getting a flag.

All the big play highlights from this game on nfl.com are for the Giants.

He's the Peerless Price of pass rushers.

I love the analysis of this game by the guys in the studio. I'm telling you guys, when I can figure out a team's offense, you're in trouble. Atlanta has trouble from the top on down. They won two games against winning teams, and their wins are really unimpressive. Of the two teams I probably watched the most this year, I'd take Seattle over them in a re-match, on the road, even money. I think Seattle would beat them by two touchdowns.

Atl no turnovers to blame for this, just flat out bad offensive play today. I feel bad for what the media is going to say about Ryan not being a playoff QB tomorrow.

He's not forcing White to drop those balls.

Agreed, but rarely does the media place the blame on anyone other than QBs when the offense doesn't perform unless the blame is blatant.

I'm sure this has already been asked, but why the hell hasn't Atlanta thrown the ball down the field any? Isn't that why they went out and got Julio?

Yeah, they took too long to start throwing, and when they had to, it was easy for the Giants pass rush to get to Ryan. Down 17-2, Turner got stuffed on that 3rd and short, and that was the ballgame.

My guess is folks will say Ryan didn't have enough time, but I agree. You're getting your butts handed to you, drop 7 steps and throw the ball as long and far as Julio's legs will carry him. What can happen, and INT? Who cares, at least it gives you a chance.
