DonOfThemBirds 19,112 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I hope this was his breakout game. It would do wonders for the defense if he becomes a dependable pass rusher. Dr Long Shot, HASHBROWN3 and JohnnyFranchise 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beast-N-Da-Sheetz 4,073 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 A backup edge rusher for the Falcons earned Defensive player of the week? That alone should elevate him to a starter. HASHBROWN3, DonOfThemBirds, Tandy and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Snozberies17 114 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 In my head, JTM is the same type of player that Blidi Wreh Wilson is for our DB group. The level of play doesn't drop off when forced into more playing time. I remember looking at JTM more this offseason when draft analysts were talking about Aj Epensa bc they are related. Well deserved winning the Player of the week. Beast-N-Da-Sheetz and Atlantafan21 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If he is 3rd behind Fowler and Means, do you really expect him to get that many snaps? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beast-N-Da-Sheetz 4,073 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Just now, LouDog said: If he is 3rd behind Fowler and Means, do you really expect him to get that many snaps? Ugh yeah. Fowler's gimpy and barely on the field and Means is still rotational, his role increased once Takk was released. He'll definitely get more snaps now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Osiruz 10,079 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 His cousin AJ Epenesa is playing very well for the bills as well, the bills just benched Trent Murphy for him. I hope he Tuoiti Mariner turns into a player at DE for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OrthoPTSD 1,134 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I mean he played a heck of a game and all but DPOW? For Falcon standards certainly but whole NFC? You go boy.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sui_Generis 3,064 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 JTM is balling. May have a keeper in this one. Beautiful scheming and outright hustle by the guys that are getting a shot. Great to see. The Falcons will need more of this to progress thru the next few years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
