Falcons_own_nfc_south Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 D played good game other than Long TD 2/2 80YDS.. I'd not put 2nd TD on Defense because they were put in the bad situation by Special Team (esp Coleman). But Special Team gave them good chance to put some pts later in the game.Kill me now..

NZFalcon Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Not so sure good is the word id use, maybe adequate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981falcsny Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Serviceable? I'm glad the team pulled together and got a win...... but this week is going to be big on adjustments hopefully? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domeOFpain Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 The D' played very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordtobigbird Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 it would have a different feel if they wouldnt let teams convert so many 3rd downs. and yes that one drive ruined everything for the D. the did pretty much shut em out in the 2nd half, if coleman knew how to protect a punt (which is still kind of on a defensive player lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izo#2883 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 When Abraham missed that sure sack, all I could think of was: focus on your own game you tard instead of hanging others out to dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caver50 Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Did we get one QB sack against a 1 and 9 team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxatlanta Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 You have to take into account who we were playing. We didn't creat turnovers and we didn't dominate or pressure them. Also, Lofton looked terrible in pass coverage. I am a fan of Lofton, but we may need to get someone else in there on 3rd and long. Overall our defensive effort wouldn't have been enough vs a decent offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peyton Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 They were very fortunate to be playing such an inexperienced QB. I am glad they held it together there in the 2nd half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh he is our starting MLB, he has the radio on the defense. Imo he needs to be handed the same level of confidence that our leader on the offense is getting.

LADBABY Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Did we get one QB sack against a 1 and 9 team?JA98 lost another sack due to circumstance beyond hiscontrol. Another penalty. We should have had more sacksthan we did and this kid is a big dude not easy to getdown. We just weren't real close most of the time.

Da_Truth Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 No pressure on the QB, bottom in the league in allowing 3rd down conversions, and can't stop the big pass ability of our opponents. Yep, that translates to the defense playing good. :wacko: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schwarzenegger321 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Our defense did not play that well. We were playing against a depleted 1 - 9 team and gave up to many yards. The run game was okay, but I wouldnt expect TB to put up many yards against a good defense anyway and they had way to many 5 and 6 yard runs, especially in the first half. We should have had 5 sacks and not the other way around and had very limited and inconsistent pressure all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_winger Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 When Abraham missed that sure sack, all I could think of was: focus on your own game you tard instead of hanging others out to dry.I was thinking 'fundamentals'.Wrap up and finish the tackle. Judging from the way he fired his helmet into the bench when he went back to the sidelines, I think he knew already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like that just makes you think there might be a reason why he hasnt gotten it done so far. Get your head in the game, do the fundamentals etc.Im surprised to see this poor showing from him tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
