RS91 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 If anything that's a sign that Dimitroff might have convinced Blank to give him another chance. Saying the team isn't playing to its potential is a major shot at the coaching staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toadfishtom Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 The Falcons are better than this????........no this is who they are and changes need to be made if you expect to win games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconinPA Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Yeah thats definitely an indictment of Smith and his coachesI hope this is what he means. If he is watching the games, the only thing that we are better than is maybe the Jags. But, I would be half scared to play them for fear of giving them their first win. Bortles would probably go ape-shitz on our D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is true, Lord help us all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chromesix70 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Blank is right. Dimitroff may be fired if the Falcons don't go to the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFanForLife Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Nothing to see here: move along.Just the standard corporate speak you would expect from a man of Mr. Blanks' background. Everyone can see the talent is lousy, the coaching is lousy and the entire franchise is lousy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjerry Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I've said for weeks, that the most saddening thing about how we are playing, is that we are better than what we are showing on that field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BankerBird™ Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 It's not often that Blank has had to come out and say something about the performance of his team, so perhaps these public comments will light a fire under the players and coaches and they'll demonstrate some fight against the Ravens on Sunday. I still expect the Falcons to lose, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still expect the Falcons to lose, though.If we'd lose a hard fought game (like game 1 against the Saints) I'd actually feel better about the team. It's the fact that we're losing in games where it appears our players are hung over and thinking about what they're doing after the game that bothers me the most. We're playing like a bunch of unprofessional, unaccountable jacklegs who are just oh so tired of getting paid millions to play a game.Show me some fight and I can forgive some losses. But this team has no heart, no pride, no guts and no toughness. We're soft and apathetic. I can't stand to watch that, honestly. It infuriates me.

JG2008 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Yes - we should be better than this We have the wrong head coachGo back and re-watch every playoff game the falcons have been in under Mike SmithDo you really honestly believe it will be any different under Mike Smith if we happen to by some miracle get into the playoffs again under him?TD hasn't made it any easier with his inability to draft (or get FA's) for LB's or DLinehttp://m.espn.go.com/nfl/story?storyId=11701212&src=desktopI hope to god this isn't a sign of Mike Smith keeping his job.
