Although our TEs stole the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of our WRs over the past two games showed that they can contribute. It's such sharp contrast to 2012 when the receivers were basically Julio, Roddy, Douglas, and TG, with the occasional Quizz shovel pass. Now it's Julio, Sanu, Hardy, Tamme, Robinson, Toilolo, Coleman, Hooper, Freeman, Gabriel, and DiMarco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love levine as a blocker still dont think he is going to turn into a pass catching threat. the ones that might really make the league take notice is tamme, hooper, and coleman. as much as im not a fan of coleman as a lead runner I am as a pass catcher, he has better hands than freeman it seems to me. Sanu will be a consistent possession wr that will punish the dbs and gabriel and alderich prob will have a couple of really good splash plays but dont think they will light the league up. either way it will relieve pressure from julio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And fans were ready to cut him in pre lol. That's why some of the complaint are ridiculous. Especially for rookies. This rookie class is gonna pay off BIG in a year or 2.

Gimme. Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 Gabriel and Robinson ignited this offense yesterday. Without them I doubt we'd have looked that good. The real question is can the Falcons run a friggin' decent screen play from time to time? Ryan looked decent throwing the screen so it's quite annoying to see an offense built to pull off decent screen plays to run such obvious and shallow screens. The whole Bend-but-Don't-break mentality needs to GO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
