dirtycanadianbird Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Agreed, it was tough sledding running the ball today with alot of runs netting negative yards but they gave Ryan the time he needed to win this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Duke 6 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 No sacks last week either right?If I told you we would not give up a sack to greenbay or chicago this summer...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-TowN.- Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 We have a pretty **** good OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwood all the way! Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 honestly, we have one of the better O lines in the NFL in my opinion. they are doing an amazing job. without them, Ryan would not being doing nearly as well as he is.

ghoticov Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 The thing is, it isn't just the OL. It's the way Ryan plays. He doesn't hold the ball and if the play isn't there, he throws it away. Yes, the OL is playing VERY well but Ryan is also helping them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconWong88 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Great job, from QB and a scary RB have helped ease pressure off the OLine. I'm sure the reformatted Oline is a lot better than last year also. Props to the whole team. Coaches, Players, and whoever else involved did their jobs.

*NiteFalcon* Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 an outstanding job for the most part today, but ryan also has to be attributed with the lack of sacks. the man is absolutely smart, and has OUTSTANDING pocket presence.what the heck was the line doing in the rushing game though...it was pretty ugly. Overall a very solid performance by the line. We're building something special here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Falcon 50 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 2nd week in a row, they have been looking very dependable!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izo#2883 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Its unbelieveable that Baker can play, with his career being over and all :PThis O-line consists of breasts, thats the reason for it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconfansince66 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Yeah, we have a pretty decent OL now. Baker's been a HUGE addition as well. They have gotten the job done the past couple of games. The Eagles won't be easy and it's a road game. But here's to enjoying this win over "Da Bears" for the next two weeks!

SwaG FactorY EnT Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 One of the most underrated lines in the NFL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harveybirdman Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I must give it up to them... who knew that we could be this good.... As long as we are admitting things today (i've seen posters say I was wrong about Roddy, Ryan, or Jaamal etc.)I was dead wrong about Mcclure.... Clearly Forney and the scrubs including the guy I supported since he was from Tulsa Shaffer were the main problems over the past few years, that and the fact that Vick couldn't pass.

That's gotta be a huge distraction! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindgame Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Our o-line was really good in pass block but just werent making holes for the run game, but 0 sacks is a really good thing when going into a bye week against a good team.

Voice of Reason Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 The thing is, it isn't just the OL. It's the way Ryan plays. He doesn't hold the ball and if the play isn't there, he throws it away. Yes, the OL is playing VERY well but Ryan is also helping them.Exactly! No sacks are a result from a good line, quality RB play (blitz pick-ups), and a QB that recognizes the blitz and can make a team pay for it. Far too often this is not mentioned. We have not had this kind of combination in years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Two weeks in a row with 0 sacks, and this week we even had Weiner in there at LT some! Wow... He played almost all of the 2nd and 3rd quaters last week, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconsfan567 Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 When was the last time the Falcons OL had 3 sackless games in a 6 game stretch? Nice job OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
