SoLuvinMyFalcons Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Please somebody do me a favor and answer that question, since I don't know the answer!!!! I just don't understand why the offense can't move the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconfan82 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 The play calling is horrible if we throw the ball more the 15+ yards more then once a game we are lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilleniumFalcon Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 When one of the Pro Bowlers can be taken out (Turner), lack of rushing game. Letting defenses not respect the run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattIceRyanMVP2 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 It's a lot to put on a second year QB passing without a running game. With no running game there is no play-action and that was really a HUGE part of our down field passing attack last year. I miss those days when Turner was bustin' huge runs, and bustin' people up...

The Don™ Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Play calling, Turner has not looked good, the OL can't run block vs. good defenses.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's TOO PATIENT and it's driving me CRAZY!!! I think Snelling deserves an opportunity to start to show us what he can do. We need a "durable" back-up running back as well.

sammyedgee Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Okay, but give Snelling more touches. At least than we had a little chanceSnelling was moving that ball well today because the defense doesn't respect him like they do Turner. Turner is met with a 7 or 8 man box every time he has the ball, but they don't do that when the Fullback gets it. We see the same thing with Norwood. So I agree. We should try and get the other backs going as long as it's working. We certainly have to do something. Matt Ryan can't drop back and throw it every play of the game.

SoLuvinMyFalcons Posted October 26, 2009 Author Share Posted October 26, 2009 This board is funny as @#!# after a loss.I don't think so, I have been asking this same questions since New England. It was the same proble last week with Chicago and if we don't find a offense soon, our season is down the drain!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a "durable" back-up running back as well.True as heelll...If it's the line, then why are we wasting the $$$$ for a back that we can't block for, looks slow and overweight....lacks the explosion he had last year, lacks the drive and determination he had last year....and lacks the ball security he had last year. I hate when we overpay for one hit wonders.....salary cap ramifications are too great.....most don't spend that much for a back....they are a dime a dozen.

ATL Fan in the DMV Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 In no particular order:1) Playcalling is suspect at best2) One Pro Bowler is ineffective outside of the Red Zone3) Our O Line isnt giving Matt more than 2 seconds to throw4) Our O Line isnt run blocking well5) Our offense misfires too much even when we are on the field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
