mc Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 1. Win coin flip. Defer!2. Convert 3rd and short at high level.3. Get off the field on 3rd and long.4. Don't run past the play. Don't let Drew Brees look like Michael Vick. Tackle/sack the qb. We got great pressure the last couple of years only to watch the qb slip through arm tackles and convert huge plays.5. Stop Wide open TE's.6. Run the ball for over 4 yds/att7. Run the ball at goal line.8. Don't take timeouts for the other team. Timeouts while running down the clock cost us 2 games last year.

Sui_Generis Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 What the Falcons need also is to actually stop bottom tier and rookie QB. They have a tendency to make them look like future HOFers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
