If Matt Ryan is going to be our QB for the next 3-4 years (and that seems like a pretty sure bet), trading away young weapons that he has a rapport with during the twilight of his career in hopes to replace it in the draft is quite the gamble. When a team drafts a guy, the hope is that he one day proves he's worthy of a being paid at least near top dollar at his position. Isn't that why you drafted him in the first place? Hooper isn't the most athletically gifted TE in the league but he has great chemistry with Ryan and they're close. Often times, that's more valuable.

The defensive line hasn't been all-world but it's been pretty dang solid (Takk included) and is the least of our issues on defense. The secondary has been straight garbage. Combine that with bad angles/poor tackling and tons of penalties keeping opponents' drives alive....THOSE are the issues. Not the line.

So recently my wife and I welcomed a new Falcons fan into the world. This was a gift we received from a buddy of mine for that first diaper change...

I agree that Brate is not an option due to being a restricted free agent. But I will admit I am getting sick of whiffing on TE's in the draft.

My favorite memory by far was seeing the NFC championship there last year. My wife and I made a last minute decision on the Tuesday before to buy tickets and drive down from Kentucky for the game. Right behind that memory would be the Thursday Night Football vs. the Saints that I came down for in 2012. Brees threw 5 picks and we ended his record streak of games with at least 1 TD pass. The dome was so electric that night. What a great time...

Clearly Jacksonville.

What's great is if scroll down the comments, you'll see that she acknowledges this herself! haha. She said something like "regretting that my emojis made it into the screenshot" then typed 3 eggplants lol

This was my summer project this year. Turned a nook in my basement into my own personal sanctuary. My wife is pretty cool.

...The Patriots play New Orleans next week. Boy, I'd hate to be the next team on the schedule after seeing New England take that shellacking.

Looking for a way to watch tonight's game up here in Kentucky. Any ideas?

I hear you. I dropped a coin or two for the GB game and also the Miami game. And I am coming down from Kentucky each time! To say I am disappointed would be an understatement.

I would love to buy one if someone has one available!

Alex Mack.... It's amazing what knowing you can confidently step forward in the pocket without getting your head knocked off can do for a QB. Especially a pocket passer.
