Posted November 19, 2018 I guess, because he didn't want to see Matt Bryant's hamstring pop, trying to make a 55 yard FG. Tavecchio could have done it left-footed --- lol... Oldmanfan, Ezekiel 25:17, NashvilleFalcon01 and 2 others like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 19, 2018 I was screaming in the stadium that's why you don't INACTIVE Tavecchio... If you have no confidence in your kicker then don't activate him Flying Falcon, rugger8 and FalconJim like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2018 They were at the 31 and Ryan was sacked to the 37-yard line, I thought it was the 39-yard line while watching on TV so I wasn't too surprised about skipping out on the FG at the time (given Bryant's Hamstring issue). I guess Quinn doesn't want to chance the miss and give Dallas good field position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 19, 2018 ME: It was at that point that I thought, "Why am I wasting my beautiful Sunday here in the ATL to suffer though this nonsense?" MORGAN FREEMAN: And he did continue to waste his time on that most glorious fall day. If fact, the next 13 hours, he was left with a small flow of spittle running from the left side of his mouth to his chest.

If you have no confidence in your kicker then don't activate him My thoughts exactly. You either believe in him to play up to his normal abilities, or you don't activate him yet.

Posted November 19, 2018 I tuned in for the second half. I wasn't even aware that Quinn made such a bone-headed decision. Goodness, I like the guy but his game decisions are sometimes ridiculous. Flashback: Run it three times, FG, hoist the Lombardi. slick0ne, jay1k2, Faithful Falcon and 2 others like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It isn't hyperbole to say that Quinn costs us 3 games a year due to his in ability to follow obvious conventional wisdom during games. Sadly, one of them was the Super Bowl.

Are you freaking serious that dumb crap happened too I probably was too peed off to even realize it? At the 37?!!! I'm so sick of Dan Quinn, angers the heck out of me.. Why can't Arthur Blank see that this is a dumb idiot he has running this football team. Sometimes I believe Arthur Blank has just given up smh.. he's getting old anyway.

If there's one thing that really ticks me off about Ryan it's that he just doesn't have the ability to get the ball away when he's about to get sacked. (I guess we should probably be glad he's at least smarter than to fling it to the other team in that situation.)

Huge moment in the game as it turned out. that p's me off even more! you have another kicker on the roster you don't even use him in that situation, if that was the reason to put at the 37-yard line cuz he didn't want to aggravate the man's hamstring?
