Yeah, a dose of that Falcons D was just what the doctor ordered. I would like to see that line stay mostly intact, outside of perhaps Erving and BC being switched. I think there is some hope with Jordan/Scott at guard.

It wasn't just adequate, at times it was dominant in the run game. Take a look at Scott and Michael Jordan on the replays. That may be the best guard play we have seen all year.

I mean....I am not gonna be upset if Ridley decides to sit the next game against us, as well. There are few players in the history of this series who have owned us like he has.

Well, this year that would have to be 8-8-1. Sparky comments aside, I would be thrilled to finish around .500. Especially since four of the games would be coming against the tough part of our schedule.

Punting and field position is generally better than what our offense has been producing. I am down for continuing the run heavy attack. Try it until it doesn't work. We don't have anything to lose.

I am not rooting against him. Never have and don't plan to because that hurts the team. He isn't going to be a top 15 QB, no matter the circumstances. It doesn't matter how many alt accounts get created to push that narrative. Like I said, I don't care if he sits or not because he doesn't contribute enough to our success to make an impact. Same thing I could say about Dennis Daley or Cam Erving or Kevin Miller or any number of the bums on that OL unit. Doesn't matter how many times we shuffle through that deck of turds, it still ends up poo. That's the Sam Darnold and PJ Walker situation.

Well....good luck with that.

I mean...I can't make you not be a weird Darnold fanboy. Not within my power.

He was the same guy he has always been. If you are crowing about a 13/24 for 129 yds and no TD's....I mean, I don't know what to say. Name any average QB in the NFL that would be acceptable.

Yeah, the idea we are gonna magically bring in the answer is pure fantasy. PJ would be the guy, for better or worse.

Yeah, because he sucks. He played a minimal part in the victory. Same with PJ. We won inspire of our QB's. No shame in it. Lean in to your strengths as a team. Ours is an elite defense and a serviceable running game.

Yeah, he is. We are not going to win this year based on our QB. That is over. We have a rushing offense and a great defense. That is our identity.

I doubt it was the plan. I am just not gonna cry crocodile tears for a guy that is 100% not the answer. It isn't important what we have at QB now. They both suck royally. It's about the running game and this defense. That is our only avenue for success in the short term.

No offense but you aren't putting a real QB in danger. Darnold is expendable on offense.

First time in his career he has definitively proved he is what we drafted.

Cam is way better than what we have but there is less than 1% chance of this happening. The optics are bad.

We need to be a run first, pass as a last option team. We have the defense for it. The best bet we have it to limit our QB's by keeping the ball out of their hands. Furthermore, our OL is actually fairly decent at run blocking. This is a win, win, win.

Eh...IDK about "clear." The one thing that seems to be clear is that the sources everyone has aren't saying the same things.

Sort of the way I view almost all the QB class.

The Dolphins are the only team that Watson is known to have waived his no-trade clause for, according to sources. Watson has not done the same for the Carolina Panthers or any other team, sources told ESPN. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/32515112/houston-texans-set-keep-deshaun-watson-nfl-trade-deadline-sources-say

If we give up a DTD to that defense, our offense should be run until 4th down and punt for the rest of the game.

So, I haven't seen much of Ridder this season. What is everyone's opinion on him?
