Atlantafan21 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 We really should win this, but knowing us we probably won't. Hopefully we do because I've been seeing a bunch of smug b*tch cowboy fans talking crap. C'mon Falcons, please win this one at least.

Yeah there's really no excuse to lose this game but then again there wasn't really an excuse to lose some of the other games we lost either. But with Zeke being out and arguably one of the best o-lineman in football also being out there's no reason they should be letting Dak beat them.

RYNE Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Hopefully we take advantage. Every time we get an opportunity like this to really exploit a miss match it never materializes for the Falcons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD dirtybird21 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 The Cowboys are officially down 2 of their top 3 most important players. The falcons need to win this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be rooting for them, but when the tides turn I won't get my hopes up. Cautiously optomistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he plays, he's not even close to as important as Smith, Zeke, Prescott, or Frederick. Those 4 are the most important players on that Cowboys roster and the Cowboys are now down 2 of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with Smith out, I don't expect much of a pass-rush until Takk gets his "Sophomore Season shoulder-surgery" tooin the offseason....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vel Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Cute. No reason to expect them to take advantage. They'll have a gameplan like Zeke, Dez, and Tyron are out there 100%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slamee101 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 This is quickly becoming like the Dolphins game in the sense that it will come down to how well coached and prepared we are. Dallas certainly still has talented players but if Atlanta manages to give another lackluster performance with the advantages they have that speaks to DQ and his ability to have them ready to play.

sdogg Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 We rarely take advantage of other teams star players sitting out. In some cases, their backups become one game stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dallas certainly still has talented players but if Atlanta manages to give another lackluster performance with the advantages they have that speaks to DQ and his ability to have them ready to play. They're well prepared. Rico said it after the MIA game and then DQ said it regarding that TD to McCaffrey last week, having practiced defending it all week. The players are just not executing and I'm rarely one to blame it solely on the players. The coaches can tell you repeatedly what's coming and you don't defend it. Simple stuff. Poor run fits pre-snap and trying to make up for it with their athleticism. Not reading their keys during the play. Not setting the edge on run plays. Trying to do other guys jobs. It's sad. I will say during the game though, Manuel's biggest fault is the lack of tailoring his gameplans. Just like Sark, he's expecting his guys to just win and not putting them in better positions to win. That's what good coordinators do. Wade Phillips has Aaron Donald. He knows Donald is a dog, but he still helps him and makes things easier to dominate. He doesn't just rely on Donald being Donald. If I were DC, I'd crowd the line repeatedly with overload looks to the left side to stress the backup LT. I'd challenge a hurt Dez and Terrance Williams to beat my corners. Don't sit back and give Dak easy reads and two way goes. Make him play faster than he wants and in challenged throwing windows. What we'll do most likely is sit back and play soft zones underneath and man on top and be extra cautious of Dak running and get moved repeatedly on the ground. Pray for turnovers. This is not a unit that wants to stop other teams. From the players or the DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
octoslash Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 What vel just laid out is exactly how a defense gives up the most plays per drive in the NFL. We fans see it every single game, and I wonder, 'ARE THESE COACHES NOT EVEN REVIEWING GAME FILM?' I predicted a Falcons victory today, really based on just a gut feeling; but it wouldn't surprise me one bit to see them go out there and give up 6, 7 yards per play, and get dominated on both sides of the ball.
