jdawg4876 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I was listening to the jay adam's podcast and they do a segment on impact players and he picked Tony G to have a career day on curtis lofton, bc according to him lofton is bad in the pass coverage game. so he said if curtis is assigned to him, that Tony G would have a great game and get his 100th td. now keep in my mind jay was around these guys day in and out throughout the yrs and knows the players really well.

DonOfThemBirds Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Even if Lofton is not on Gonzo, whoever he is assigned to in coverage will have a big game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonOfThemBirds Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Gonz will get 100 vs saintsI think Gonzo, Roddy, and Julio will go over 100+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtybird#11 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I think Gonzo, Roddy, and Julio will go over 100+either way roddy will get his yards vs saints broken at 210 beat by someone on this roster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mattural Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Is their a way to pull stats on receivers that he's defended this year? Just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exar0s Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Anyone will get yards on Lofton. The guy is a great at stopping the run but horrible in coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcons007 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Is their a way to pull stats on receivers that he's defended this year? Just curious.Lot of targets to RB,few Targets to TE and WR when Lofton was in coverage. I can see JJ,RW and TG on a short crossing route and get bunch of YAC exploiting Lofton's weakness.

Karst41 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Smitty knows all of Lofton strengths and weaknesses, and will exploit them.Staints signed Lofton to gain an edge on the falcons.But we got a new DC and OC which now leaves the Staints with diminishing returnson their investment into Lofton.If you sign a player from a divisional opponent and that player gives your team an edgeto win one or both of those games, the price paid was a great bargin.However if you lose both games, well you pretty much wasted your time and money.To Sweep the Aints this year will be multiple Dutch Rubs on an Epic Scale.

FalconFanForLife Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Well that is nice to hear from Jay, but I think every fan of the Falcons already knows Lofton can't cover anyone. That is just not a strength he has ever had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmo_dlo Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 are you gonna go based what Jay says? Last year he was saying the exact opposite about Lofton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer2 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Isn't jay employed by the team? Kind of hard to be unbiased in that position. It would be like taking the white house press secretary's opinion on Obama. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
