FalconsfaninTORONTO 280 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 The best play of the game that will be forgotten was the 2nd down play in the 1st half where the Cowboys went low and even without the flag I was just happy it didn't end Ryan's season. Because for 25 / 32 QBs that's a torn ACL. Same feeling / type of hit from the Eagles game back in 2014(?) that i thought ended a season ... but even back then he just walked it off and came back. No offense to QBs like Bridgewater, Watson or Rodgers but could you say the same for them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Holding guys accountable on the field and not accepting anything less than success from his Offensive Line. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Man I hate that Fox is still fighting with Direct TV. I saw the highlight reel on ESPN.....but I want to know from people that saw the game start to finish. Did we play really good in all phases today? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

With Freeman out, Ryan and Taylor Gabriel carried the team, and once the Falcons had a big lead, Coleman picked up first downs. Special teams was good in kicking and coverage, and Roberts didn't get the opportunity to screw us too bad. Bryant and Bosher were solid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Overthrew an open Marvin Hall that would've been a 30 yard gain. On the INT, I thought the ball could've been released a second earlier for an easier completion instead of high tip. Besides that, he played well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He was pretty pissed afterward. I hated seeing that. I had one eye open thinking the worst. When he started cussing in every direction, I actually knew this game was over. When Ryan gets pissed, usually after a particularly brutal hit, he becomes lights out. I love that so gd much about Ryan. Also, notice how much better the protection was after that?

I remember a hit by the Lions and Suh, what in his second or third year? It was his ankle, the it bent I thought he was done for the year. Someone said it earlier, but Ice is very pliable.

zzfrow 673 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 So tired of low hits like that one not being called. The fact is the flag was thrown, but then Hoculi picked it up. Should never have picked it up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lostnmexico 2,343 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) Best play of the game was Adrian Clayborn taking the ball away from Dak Prescott killing Dallas chance for a tying FG in my opinión but I like your thinking anyway as your choice lit a fire under the team.

Outside of that one overthrow, he was great all game, magical on many plays. This was one of the best games I have seen him play. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MoFalconsFan56 4,294 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Told my wife that maybe we needed somebody to piss us off and it seems like the cowboys def did that. Lit a fire in the Falcons that's for **** sure. You can ALWAYS notice the difference in our team when Ryan gets hyped, players feed off of it for sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matty ICE 830 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 The replay hurt my back/leg. Like someone said reminded me of the suh hit when he jogged back out. Matty is tough Quote Link to post Share on other sites
