jm_falcons Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 The OL and Ryan chemistry is not there. That is the root of the problem. In fairness...Quinn and Dimitroff did there best to totally rebuild the OL and it might even be slightly better than last years OL. But...Ryan is not comfortable with the offense. The confidence lacks...and unfortunately...this is the kind of problem that will infiltrate other areas of the team. Falcons need 10 wins to get into the playoffs...9 might even do it. But...thay certainly dont look like a playoff team to me over the past 5 games. Ryan and the OL is the key....that is the motor that will either drive this team down the road or crash into the lake.

Lornoth Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Mostly the Center. Ryan has to pay extra attention to every shotgun snap to make sure it doesn't fly past him. That extra half second can be big when you only have 3 or 4 seconds to throw the ball in total. Definitely need someone besides Person or Stone next year.

That's like a receiever looking up the field before catching a pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're having to spend extra time just to make sure the snap goes into your hands, the offense is in trouble. That exchange needs to be automatic, without the QB even needing to think about it.

Guest facelessman07 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 They just need more time to "gel."Maybe that'll happen after a few more years together... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
