AS is trash!

[stonefistz]

Really?? You put the game in Mariota's hands?! Wow these play calls are trash

[FalconBlood23]

I agree, he can take his “genius” *** along with his bum *** qb he loves so much Mariota and *** right out of town. 

[bossFALCON™]

Bro I just knew we were going to run it 4x times after that last first down smh

[West Sider]

Absolutely agree.  Stubborn, prideful amateur. He’s in way over this head. 

[ShmevinShmarris]

Gashing them for 7 YPC all game and then we put the ball in Mariotas hands smh

It’s always so emotional around here 🤣🤣🤣

[k-train]

How many of these "offensive geniuses" do we have to see opting to pass in an incredibly obvious situation where running the ball all but guarantees a win?

[175_Ranger_Falcon]

Not sure why they were in shotgun only needing a yard for the touchdown 

[FalconofShadows]

He wanted to shut up the fans and media about Mariota he's an idiot

[diehardfalconsfan]

I'll say again..one of the dumbest play calls ever.....every single thing about the situation made that call stupid. Im legit floored anyone in their right mind would call for a pass. Simply insane.

[itzthechase]

Payne made a good play as well to be fair lol

[AllStarHandyMan]

Lol great play call. Patterson was wide open. The defense gets paid to play the game. He got his hands up.

 

Edit : that is why we need to throw money at Payne as a free agent.

So he's no longer a genius for having this roster in playoff contention?

[J]

I don't understand why he calls the worst / high risk plays when he doesn't need to in critical situations.

Just like when Mariota threw the int against Carolina near the end of the game.  Why was he throwing a bomb?  I don't get the play calling. 

[I Even Bleed Red]

He’s a good coach. He is passionate and fiery.
 

But dude has an EGO on him. Is Ridder really that bad or is AS a narcissist? 

[Jesus]

Ahh the post game hot takes.

[Francis York Morgan]

Payne made a great play. Would've preferred a run there too since passing leaves so much clock for a Washington FG, but I actually really liked the playcall and Patterson had it easily if not for the tip. 

Still have a ton of confidence in Art and this staff.

No longer in playoff contention. The falcons will have to win 5 of the last 6 to do so. 

No way that happens with this defense and Mariota under center.

So that means we should give ridder playing time, yes?

Not saying that either.

[Is This What You Want?]

It was a mystifying play call.  If it works, then we leave almost a full minute for Washington to get into FG range and win the game.  Even if it works why do that?  Run it 3-4 times in a row and only need 1 yd each run and run clock with it.   

[HEIST]

This fanbase is so emotional lmao. Patterson was open for a TD, Payne made a great play and we got unlucky on the tip.

The decision was maddening because say we did score there was circa 45 seconds left with commanders needing a field goal to win. With our defense I’d say the chances they get the yardage to be quite likely.
 

If we run we get the ball at the (worst case) 4 yard line run clock down to 20 seconds and we have 2 plays to win the game. I’m absolutely fuming

[MilleniumFalcon]

Smith “delivers” a victory to Washington with that play call at “FedEx Field”
