Peyton Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 In the first 5 games, the Atlanta defense didn't allow a single QB to average 8 yards per attempt.In the last 6 games, every QB the Atlanta defense has faced has averaged at least 8 yards per attempt.Disturbing trend.

sporkdevil Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Blame Boone StutzIt has nothing to do with the Boone Stutz curse.And everything to do with the Boone Stutz curse.Peyton, how about clarification on the difference. If we went from 7.9 yards per pass to 8.1 yards per pass, that could be understandable. Plus, we did loose Williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamPlayer1 Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Perhaps teams are catching on that we are weak at cb? Max, when that weakness is combined with a lack of a pass rush, I'm worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phattywankenobi Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 1st 5--Miami, Carolina, New England, San Francisco, and ChicagoLast 6--Dallas, New Orleans, Washington, Carolina, Giants, and Tampa BayCouple this with rotating CB's in and out due to injury or ineptness and I am not really surprised. Too late in the year for miraculous changes so if nothing else Owens will get some reps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndcruz Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 (edited) Here's my disturbing stat of the day: Yards per completion!Game 1 vs. Dolphins: Pennington 8.38Game 2 vs. Panthers: Delhomme 12.32Game 3 vs. Patriots: Brady 11.08Game 4 vs. 49ers: Hill 13.20Game 5 vs. Bears: Cutler 11.11Game 6 vs. Cowboys: Romo 14.80Game 7 vs. Saints: Brees 12.32Game 8 vs. Redskins: Campbell/Collins 10.95Game 9 vs. Panthers: Delhomme 13.00Game 10 vs. Giants: Manning 15.36Game 11 vs. Bucs: Freeman/Johnson 12.50According to teamrankings.com only 12 out of the 32 teams average over 11 yards per completion. Nine of our 11 opponents topped that when they played us and the Redskins came pretty close. None of the 32 teams average more than 12.9 yards per completion. Against us, four teams had 13+ ypc, with the Cowboys and Giants going 14.80 and 15.36 respectively. Just shows that we give up way too many yards per completion and how bad our tackling is. It also might be a sign that we're letting too many receivers get behind our defense and catch the deep ball.

-Falcon4Ever- Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 it is definitely because of williams being out. i think a lot of games would have been different this year if he hadn't went down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
