Lou_Dog Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 How has Spoon been playing so far? I have had to work through every single preseason game so I havent been able to see any of the Falcons in action yet. He is one of the guys that I am really counting on to have a very good season. Has he been impressing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM12 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 He has looked fast, instinctful, and been in the backfield a bunch.Looking injury free which is most important. Couple of missed tackles at the point of attack but nothing too major.Expect a big year from Spoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lou_Dog Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 good to hear. Dude looked like a beast when he was a rookie before his injury. I really think our LBers are going to be **** good this year. A Healthy Spoon and Lofton. Plus we have Nic starting over Pete. Sounds good.

Sipifalcon Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Dude will be an real asset on the field... He looks 100% in preseason like hes floating or something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxatlanta Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Spoon has shown all the tools you could ask for, but he still gets fooled because he's trying so hard to diagnose the plays quickly. Both of PITT's completions on their opening drive were because Spoon bit on the play action, which is an issue because he was supposed to be covering the TE on both plays. His speed allowed him to make the tackle but he still has a lot of work to do. Just as an example, a slower Peterson probably prevents those completions or at least is in position to contest them. Once Spoon stops having to think he will be a beast, but IMO he isn't there yet. My expectation is a combo of great plays and brain farts from him this year.

Dr. Billings Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Spoon's been playing well. He's set to have a breakout year. Surprisingly, he can sing too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
