youngbloodz Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 "I came in every day busting my ***," Davis said. "I was doing everything the right way. "The only thing I thought was I wasn't going to get cut right now. I knew I had to compete for the job, but I thought I would be good through camp. I was no way being arrogant by saying, 'I'm already on the team.' I just had the feeling that, yes, I'm going to be in camp for the Falcons." Falcons are a joke of a franchise. Clown material Bum TJ Yates. Going to be following closely this dudes pre season. He better make sure he is on point in pre seasonyour boy Davis sucks.

nomak Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Not my fault Ryan is a playoff FAILUREBut it's your parents fault that you are a human being failure...your dad should had used a condem. Now we are all paying for his ignorance. For the sack of humanity I hope you don't have children. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Real Falcon Fan Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I believe they saw (in their opinion) that Davis just wasn't the guy. They moved on a bought someone else in....no harm in that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconfreak1 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 LOL yeah your right and he said all the right things while getting ready to leave the team. Davis also gave us an idea of what the Falcons think about TJ. So if TJ stinks to high **** this preseason, whose fault is it??Well if TJ stinks then that means that Davis is not the only one that stank.

MD-FalconFan13 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) your boy Davis sucks. Point blankT&E is an idiot. There is literally no point in communicating with an idiot who believes he's intelligent. I mean who goes on a rant about a back-up QB? Especially one that has done nothing. You ask some fans of other teams and they'd say "Dom Davis who??", "What position does he play??". But not T&E, he tries to make a point about how the organization should let him compete with clearly superior players.....SMHYet again, an absolute FAIL!

UnrealfalcoN Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 lol DD tha future was competition? what has he proven in the last 3 years for us? sub-par preseason games and an injury.Also was he supposed to say "The falcons were right, I stink on the football field which is why I got replaced #sadface #stillthefuture"??

LotsaPoppa Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) The point is that there is no need for competition when there is a clearly superior player in the mix. Not to mention that back-up QB is far from "Most Important" position on the field. In the case that a back up QB plays, your already in "Worst-Case Scenario" mode. No need to waste time evaluating that position any further when you have so many other positions to evaluate this offseason.No.The point is... we went 4-12.The second point is that we have only one playoff win in the last 6-7 years.So I think it's fair to say that the notion that EVERYBODY from the General Manager, to the Head Coach, to the director of conditioning (Fish *sp), to the assistant coaches to the players on the field is subject to be replaced except the one position that, arguably, is the most important position in any franchise... is a bit ridiculous.When you coddle the person manning the most critical position in the organization don't be shocked by the fact that your team suffers from a lack of toughness.Oh... and it doesn't help when you leader takes a dive as opposed to trying to make it into the endzone (Don't deny it).

ukfalc Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 The will be competition... between the players who are good enough to warrant a place at camp.By the OP's logic, we shouldn't be cutting or replacing anybody, because by his interpretation "open competition" means every single person on the roster has been promised a chance to compete.Last time a checked, we had a limit of the number of people we keep under contract. Cutting and replacing one if them doesn't mean that there isn't competition at their position. It just mean that they won't be one of the players competing.

LotsaPoppa Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 (edited) So let me get this straight. You seem to be saying that DDavis was going to be competing with Matt Ryan to play QB? That is almost T&E level of stupid.How about this: there was already a competition for the backup role, and NEITHER DDavis NOR Renfree were able to win the job convincingly. Renfree just lost a bit less than Davis did.If I had one wish from a magical genie, it would be for stupidity to be painful. I would get filthy rich investing in Tylenol and Advil off of you alone.So let me get this straight. You seem to be saying that DDavis was going to be competing with Matt Ryan to play QB?

And as for T.E. I think yall should have a bit more respect for the guy to be honest with you. He is constantly pulling up stats and numbers to help yall see the light.I, on the other hand, don't have the patience. You win one playoff game in 6-7 years with the weapons Matt Ryan had. Then follow that up with a $20 million per year contract only to go 4-12? I'm sorry, that's all I need to see. It's time to GTFO.

Those two ideas don't fit together. If it's "we" then it's not Matt's fault, it's the team's.You talk about winning games, a team accomplishment, as if Matt alone is responsible for success or failure. He's not.And I get being pissed about not winning in the playoffs, but you can't seriously be lobbying for a camp battle between Matt and any of those guys, could you? If so, further conversation is not necessary. Edited June 22, 2014 by MD-FalconFan13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NFL is driven by business and they are going to pay the "star" as long as the NFL keeps raking in the revenue. Ryan's salary will be the norm in a year or so when some of these QBs have to be re-upped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, further conversation is not necessary.This is a ridiculous argument that gets perpetuated non-stop on these boards. If it's such a "team" accomplishment and "team" responsibility then the spoils should be dispersed accordingly.Their not!The "teammates" don't get paid equally. The "teammates" don't get an equal split of the accolades when everything is all sunshine. So this gutless effort to use "teammates" as Matt Ryan's personal human shields when the going gets tough has gone just far enough.In short...Your point is moot.Stop the Coddling!LotsaPoppa, I've seen a few posters use this as something to beat Ryan up with.But the fact is, get used to these kinds of salaries for QBs.

newgafatboy Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 DD had 2 preseasons to show his potential against 2nd and 3rd stringers. He looked miserable. One good drive in 6 games. At least JJ has game experience and won a couple games to get Houston in the playoffs. But I agree he better look good in preseason or smitty and team will be in hot water over a freaking backup.
