Guest facelessman07 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Shouldn't be a deep concern if we are in "win now" and about "finishing" games strongly?Sadly this team isn't built to "win now"We've got too many holes, but I think with the right moves in the offseason we could go far next yearAnd by right moves I mean addressing the lines hard & heavy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lornoth Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 The only guy currently on the market that was ever good is Long. There aren't three people out there better than what we have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Daniels and Reed (when healthy) played prominent roles in Shanahan's offenses. Makes you wonder if the Falcons will look to spend some money on a proper TE next year.

With the exception of Long, and that's solely dependent on his healthWe just have to take our lumps this year...AGAIN FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME.....and pray it's addressed in the offseason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romfal Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Shouldn't be a deep concern if we are in "win now" and about "finishing" games strongly?first off, we aren't "winning now" anything. Maybe we have a shot at the division, but people envisioning a SB run with a rookie HC are just being delusional. better wait until the 53 man cuts to see if any talent will be available.

We're already down a pick next year thanks to Goodell. The only options we have are FA this year or Draft/FA next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we all have to hope is that the OL gets better at doing their job, because that is far more likely to happen as opposed to some savior that another team overlooked, coming in here and making the unit better. The line we have is capable, but they have to improve their technique in order to succeed and to avoid getting injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
