Question: Would you feel better if Ryan Neal, a player who won't play a single snap for the Atlanta Falcons in 2019-2020 during the regular season, batted that pass down versus Denver and the Falcons started the pre-season with a 1-0 record? I mean we're talking about guys who won't even be on the practice squad somehow determining the outcome of the Falcons season. Truly think about that.

Lethal Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Like how is this still a thing lol? Our starters haven't played a single snap for the most part and we are going to worry about going 0-2 against future insurance salesman?

It isn't excuses if it's blatantly true. Also went for two after the first touchdown when an extra point would have put us four points ahead. The strategic advantage from an almost certain four point advantage makes it the smart play if you're trying to win. This coaching staff is using these games to evaluate players' ability to apply fundamentals to live action. Everybody would prefer to win but nobody should care about losing.

Lethal Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 @MAD597 you really should update your username for every mad post you make. Like with this last one you should now be known as MAD598.

TheFatboi Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 How many times have I said this? I understand y’all wanna hear it from Quinn but football is not rocket science. And it’s the same game it’s always been. It’s almost like I say it then a coach repeats what I already said. Sometimes after taking a lot of heat from the board. Which I don’t mind cause I know what I’m talking about from a football perspective. Just from experience of playing the game alone and being in exact types of situations. Many other guys that played understand this stuff as well. We may have fundamental differences but at the core we all agree on things that never change about football. If you’re trying to WIN preseason you’re not properly evaluating your talent. Falconsfan567, Lethal, vel and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady was a 7th? Sherman was a 5th or 6th? Grady was a 5th?? There’s too 5 picks that came into the league with Grady that ain’t even playing anymore. You’ll have a top 5 bust more than a super star.

How exactly? Lol. That means you’re focusing on winning the pre season super bowl than evaluating each and every player you have to see WHO can really play. Who can handle adverse situations etc...Not only that. Putting them in bad spots TO WORK ON 2 point conversion, 4th and short etc...lol.
