jaschart Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 It just occurred to me that I probably would have switched the game off by the end of the second quarter if it weren't for all the laughs and craziness in the game chat that Cap started yesterday. I wanted to thank Cap, and everyone else that was there, for keeping me hopeful and allowing me to watch an incredible win from start to finish.EAT ****!BTW R, that's the new chant.

capologist Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Glad to be able to help out, it wouldn't be gameday without that chat for me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaschart Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Yeah, I was in the in-game thread the previous week or two, and it's just too hard to follow, refresh, and watch the game. I think the only other time I was in chat was a pre-season game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FalconFanSince1969 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Why would you even consider turning the game off with the league leader in 4th quarter comebacks behind center? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaschart Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 game chat?? where??Cap starts a game chat each week. The link was posted yesterday, but only got bumped once. I should have bumped it again when I had to hunt it down after accidentally closing the tab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight of God Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I seriously still thought we'd win, but I can see how an would doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaschart Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) The last drive of the first half gave me some hope, but settling for a field goal made me extremely uneasy. I know it's a different beast, but I think Quinn could learn a thing or two about clock management from Brian Kelly, at least based on what I saw from each this weekend. I had to agree with, I think it was Aikman, saying that we were using too many timeouts too quickly, but it ultimately didn't change anything about the drive.This team has a fight that I've never seen in Atlanta, just straight up dog, and I'm still not believing my own eyes when I see it.

At the time I thought it would bite us in the ***, like it has every single time, ever.I'm just trying to wrap my head around the new expectations, because historically there has been a whoooole lot of "here we go, again." The problems at D have been obvious and festering for years, but I wasn't even aware how bad our offensive playcalling was until Shanny arrived, and I thought he was going to be Quinn's albatross. It scares the **** out of me being this hopeful for this team. I'd still like to kick Eugene Robinson in the nuts...

Not even the Giants playoff game or the Charles Dimry game.But I can understand others doing so.I used to be that way, but one day I heard Larry Wachs say that he didn't allow millionaires to ruin his weekends. These guys fight, so I likely won't consider turning the game off again, but in years past, you just knew the team was going to accept failure and cash their checks. **** those guys.

trudweathers Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 I jumped out of chat before the half, turned the sound off on TV and watched the game standing up till the end. No distractions. Total focus. Had to make adjustments. The results speak for themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaschart Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 just have to say it was fun and watching devonta freeman just get better and better every play turn into a monster so fun Yeah, I didn't think he had it in him, nor did I think the oline would, yet. I even reverted back to a hard stance of "can we do that consistently" after the adrenaline settled, but I'll gladly chow on crow as a post game meal.I love that they had two guys that had to get busted lips stitched up. I'm not sure if Devonta was responsible for them, but I hope so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see it now, Freeman's hip got him. I kept looking for head to head contact. That was a big one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
