Redjack Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 (edited) We’ve been going on **** near 2 decades of god awful defense from this franchise at this point so it’s not surprising, but god ****** when is this going to end? How can a franchise have this one consistently terrible attribute through 20 years??

SwampyMux12 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I get it's frustrating, but I look at a game like this as a survival. We're missing 4/5 of our week 1 starting secondary today... I'll take the win, but it'll sure be nice if we can get healthy and hopefully better. autigerfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
175_Ranger_Falcon Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 You do realize the falcons are down 3 players in the secondary right? Is This What You Want?, ATLskinjob, Chitown2ATL_Falcon and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesus Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Guys were in the wrong spots but yet a PS journeyman started this week and had 3 PDs including two in the end zone. Diesel_Bird, ATLskinjob, FalconJim and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slick0ne Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Can’t put that Moore touchdown on Pees. Evans and that other guy should go straight home and not celebrate anything other than the fact that they got away with being stupid on that play.

TheUsualStuff Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Deanpees didn't let the receiver run right by him.

TheUsualStuff Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 With as many injuries as we have had, you scour the practice squad and the streets for bodies. That sort of skewers the NFL caliber players argument. Rings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insanity is doing the same thing and expecting different results. Sooooo..... Lack of execution from players isn't and hasn't been the issue over the years? It's easy to put everything on the coaches. What about the players who can't push an offensive lineman backwards or break free from a block. Or the secondary member who doesn't play his assignment. Or the player who sees a guy running towards him and instead of tackling, they allow another 3 yards before touching him.

The defense came close to having would be sacks if they had held up in coverage. ATLskinjob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stizz Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Pees played prevent earlier this year and it cost the team. He isn't learning from his mistakes. Rushing three passers in the NFL is a disaster waiting to happen, especially when you already have issues getting to the QB. FalconJim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rings Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 We started the year with journeyman, backups and practice squad quality players. We have since lost four I believe and are playing those guys backups. I’m not putting a lot on Pees right now. He can’t do what he wants on defense cause he doesn’t have the guys.

Harder to stay aggressive with backups and practice squad players starting most of the secondary though in that situation. All the players had to do was not give up the big play and let the time run out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
