My response was perfectly reasonable. I comprehend just fine. Your takes are simplistic at best. Ryan can’t run = more sacks. Watson can run = more sacks? Wait how does that work? Also, it’s not that important. Also if “like” ooooooohhh is code for “black” then just go there I can take it. I’m Black Francis man! He and Vick’s athleticism are part of the reasons why they were sacked so much, I find myself saying “get rid of ball” watching Watson at times. Brady is elusive enough but is probably the easiest sack in the league when he’s beat. Heres an example of the opposite. Remember the two wholly unnecessary grounding calls on ultra athletic Marriotta, on the same drive yesterday, where he was literally in the grasp and being dragged down? Sacks happen for a lot of reasons. Edited September 30, 2019 by ant.accurate Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Because they always try to do TOO much. They trust in their athletic ability to the point where they constantly dance behind the line of scrimmage. These 2 guys were brought up an ample amount of times in this thread when I didn't mention them once. Swear TATF has a reading comprehension problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No one is asking Ryan to be a mobile QB or buy 10+ seconds every time a play breaks down. Just a little more jazz in the pocket from Ryan and this offense could take off. Having a better arm would help but thats asking for too much. Observation skills suck for the homer crowd. The thing about Vick. What IF you were referring to Vick? Why is it Vick's ability soo hated by some folks? Why is it wrong IF some people wished a quarterback that has talent similar to Vick was quarterback? Justin Fields, Trevor Lawrence, Jacob Eason, they have similar skill set to Vick. The people who like Vick like the TALENT. The swag and other stuff was extra fluff. Nobody cries when a quarterback is compared to Steve Young or Randall Cunningham, but you bring Vick up and its suppose to be wrong. The reason Vick's name STILL comes up is because of the talent he had at quarterback. Its like some folks want us to forget it happened. Well it happened. The Michael Vick experience happened. It really did... The dome is BACK to half empty because people are tired of a boring product that doesn't win. If the Falcons had won that Superbowl, then the fans could put up with this boring product. Not only did they blow the Superbowl, they blew the fanbase. A lot of folks want to move on from Ryan, Dimitroff and anything about that Superbowl, even if they will not admit it... Jerz #GurleySZN 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Then you said "zip something up the middle where you beat a linebacker, corner or safety." That's exactly what this throw is.

The example I used was Gardner freaking Minshew. You assumed Watson was the peak of my stance since he is so athletic and nimble. LOL Your response was so off base on a simplistic take. Hmmm That’s not even remotely close to being true. You’re just making stuff up now. You used Minshew I used Watson. What’s the big deal? I’m saying it’s more than just being elusive and nimble. It can be coached too. Shanny taught Ryan how to side step a la Tom Brady and it appears as if Ryan has regressed Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan even had this problem in Shannys offense taking quick unnecessary sacks. It’s plagued him his whole career and is why DC’s love to blitz his slow ***. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

caradoc 33 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Buc fan here. This ish isn't on Ryan, or your OL or Freeman. It's Koetter. He doesn't give the QB options. Many/most of his plays the shallowest receiver is 10+ yards downfield. And he has no skill at calling running plays. The guy is 100% boom or bust. Winston is a lot more elusive than Ryan, and a lot riskier with his throws. He was put in the same situation, sometimes he made things work with his feet, sometimes he made incredible throws, and a lot of times he got intercepted trying to make incredible throws because he had no option and wouldn't throw it away. Ryan won't make plays with his feet, won't take the risky throws, and you can't always throw it away. JMHO Skin doc 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He had multiple snaps yesterday where he has time to get through all 5 reads, and you could see his head moving from one side of the field to the other. No one was open, not even an outlet. Ill let you draw your own conclusion from there. This is it. I can’t believe no one could get open. Was it the route combinations? Was it the defense changing up coverage so much? Our receivers without a shadow of a doubt have individual talent. Faithful Falcon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m sure one of these receivers could manage to get open after 5 seconds. Sometimes you have to play some backyard football if the play breaks down instead of continuously taking coverage sacks.

He couldn't do anything with RG3 up in Washington... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
