Love it, offense is gonna score but having a defense determined to give them even more opportunities is a wonderful thing

 

now just quit the stupid 3rd down penalties and our offense would get about 15 possessions a game lol 

the 3rd down penalties are a problem but sometimes I wonder if the refs do it to keep the game from getting out of hand lol

Read my mind exactly. It's as if they're instructed to keep it as close as possible due to the fact that an aggressive Falcons offense can easily blow the lid off..

I think that is what, "All gas, no brakes," is all about. The offense is going to score. Go hawk the ball on D and don't sweat an occasional aggressive mistake. If you ever get the turnover, the O puts you up by 2 scores and you get the pin your ears back the rest of the way and get after the QB.

Man, Neal's PI on Sunday night made me so mad. Not saying it shouldn't have been called, but we had them for a three-and-out and he had the pass defensed anyway.

exactly. I've seen worse on Julio not get called but then again, it's Julio. the play that pissed me off more than anything is the play they called holding on Alford and Clayborn was being held RIGHT IN THE REFS FACE.

I saw both and didn't like it. There was another one (can't remember the rusher) where the blocker's hand was extended and he was under the shoulder pad and the ref ignored it. Some stand out worse than others, I guess.
