Guest Negatorris Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 He took a bad angle on the Odell TD, and got benched for the next series. Moore should have been sitting right next to him imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falconstwopercentsized Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Trollus. Worrilows whiff was huger. But I like Allen and Paul. Paul Allen wish. Illermminatzi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likeriver Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I read that Allen was benched so he could "calm down" and collect himself. It wasn't intended to be a punishment. I'm sure Allen was just as upset as Quinn was to give up that play. It probably helped recover his morale after loosing it on that play.

Hashbrown3 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 It's cool. It's just a way for DQ to get in touch with his players. He loves his players and is an excellent communicator. He does it at the best time. The present moment, where you can learn the most from it.He's not doing it in a demeaning way. ****, if it weren't for DQ, Rico probably wouldn't even be on the team, or at the very best, would be on the practice squad.

Dem Birds Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 That was solely for his benefit. Quinn let's players play and knows mistakes happen. It wasn't punishment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayOzOne Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Quinn didn't sit him because of the whiff. He sat him because Allen was feeling sorry for himself. They put him back in after one series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hashbrown3 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 The out of position play on Odell and the calming down stuff are both the same thing man. He gave up a 69 yard eye poker man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delaigle Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Only heard it 1 time and 1 place -don't remember where ---- so do not ask for a linkDo not know if true---but someone said Allen was having cramps during the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlfanstckndenver Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 He took a bad angle on the Odell TD, and got benched for the next series. Moore should have been sitting right next to him imo.He wasn't just benched for the missed tackle. It was his mindset more than anything. Moore did miss some plays too, but dang people are super unrealistic with their expectations. They act like other players NEVER have bad plays. I've seen KC in Seattle look just as bad and even worse at times in Seattle. This fan base just sucks at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moore did miss some plays too, but dang people are super unrealistic with their expectations. They act like other players NEVER have bad plays. I've seen KC in Seattle look just as bad and even worse at times in Seattle. This fan base just sucks at times.It's just the phenomenon of being a fan of a team and dissecting each and every play, whereas their exposure to other teams own mistakes and shortfalls is severely limited. This creates an aura of how much better other teams are because the exposure that they hear about is almost always positive except in some cases where it's just a huge whiff or negative play.So what happens is you hear about Tom Brady's amazing stats, but don't see his overthrows and huge receiver drops because they still won the game. Or you think Drew Brees is an extremely accurate passer with crazy yards, but you watch the game he just throws short and his receivers pick up YAC.

mark0demi Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 He took a bad angle on the Odell TD, and got benched for the next series. Moore should have been sitting right next to him imo.if thats the play that got him benched, odb was covered by alford. When the ball was released alford saw the two lb's reaching for the tip and he pulled up a step. Odb cought the ball and thats when the falcons 2ndary got tied up tripping or blocking each other. If alford would have continued his persuit and not hold up he would have been able to create contact on odb shortly after the catch prevent the big gain.

I've seen KC in Seattle look just as bad and even worse at times in Seattle. This fan base just sucks at times.Moore missed 1 play. The missed tackle. His only missed tackle of the game. He only had 1 missed tackle vs the Eagles but I've actually heard a poster day he missed more tackles than he made. We missed 8 or 9 as a team. Moore had 7 tackles in the eagles game. How is it even possible for him to miss 8 or more tackles if we missed 9 as a team?? Lol. And worrilow was credited with more missed tackles than Moore yet nobody is crying about it. I think Durant missed 2 tackles as well. Nobody complaining. He had 5 tackles in the Giants game. HUGE tackles I might add. Saved a play from being a TD after Worrilows missed tackle on Vereen that gained 37 yards but it's been micro sized to his one missed tackle. Just crazy. I know it was 3rd down and I get that but the Moore almost lost the game talk is just stupid. OBJ's TD only tied the score 10-10. What happened on the next 10?? Did Moore miss all the tackles for that? No cause he only missed the one. That's been my issue. 10-10 if you just gotta blame Moore. Who's to blame for 20-10???

Alford's assignment is to bail. He was "covering" OBJ unless he stayed in his zone. OBJ ran a slant. The coverage falls on somebody else's zone, which is more likely Stupar who came in for Worrilow. His depth wasn't deep enough. As far as Alford he slowed for a second because Allen cut his angle off attempting to tackle and missing OBJ.
