95 is everything you could want in a defensive player and represents Keep Pounding very well. Pay that man his money.

Your efforts are appreciated. Unfortunately this will be an issue going forward no matter what anyone does due to the status of the franchise. That is beyond any of our control. As for the matter being discussed. It's important to note that the stance Icege is taking while there is some truth that there has been trolling here his proposed solution is basically another version of Poundaway and Iamhubby1 in wanting to censor and eradicate thoughts that he feels do not check the boxes he seeks. If one runs a community that way they won't have a community for very long. Not one dedicated to a sports franchise such as ours as historically inconsistent and now low as it has sunk in comparison to the rest of the league. The best thing to do is roll with the waves and try to keep the peace as best you can. But if anyone wants positive thoughts only I'd tell them to wake up to the real world. Social media is what it is and if negativity is not something someone wants to see then hey by all means ditch social media go back to a flip phone and just get off the internet. That works for some people. There's nothing wrong with that either.

The Eagles have noticably taken a step back without Steichen. Sure would have been nice to give that guy a real interview.

Absolutely. I'm not sure how interested he is in working directly under Tepper with all he's seen so far. In the end money does talk though.

Why is there this much discussion about the Falcons defense? In the end you give credit to our QB for navigating the final drive. That's what he was supposed to do. Unfortunately on the flip side of that you have to acknowledge we also played a team with a starting QB who led his team to only 7 points and had a game sealing interception in our territory to finish with a 15.5 QBR. On our end we're lucky if we visit the end zone once per game. And despite Desmond Ridder being a "two pack of ass" the sad reality is our QB still finished with a lower YPA than him despite 4 more attempts. Let's enjoy the week without a loss but be realistic going forward.

I would take Tomlin in an instant. But I don't see Tepper having any interest whatsoever in that possibility. Even if you remove the history he has with him Dave has shown he does not want a coach who will put their foot down and speak their mind.

There are people who simply do not believe in Bryce Young. That is unfortunate but expectations and reality have not met. We can't have productive threads discussing our #1 pick because of that but also because of the folks who want to act like they carried him in a womb for nine months and turn a win where we scored 9 points into a platform to announce he's finally arrived. You guys did the same thing after the Texans game and how did that work out? Earlier in the season all the talk was about how Andy Dalton played well against a lesser defense and how Bryce struggled against the better defenses and then that narrative went up in flames. He is expected to perform against teams like the Falcons. They are garbage. The NFC South as a whole is garbage. This used to be one of the toughest divisions in football. Next season will tell us all we need to know. For now we just need to see any semblance of improvement.

I agree with you completely. I'm thrilled we got a win at home against a division rival. But there was a time when consistently settling for field goals was enough to want coaches fired and players benched. We've lowered the bar significantly to accommodate for circumstances. It can't go any lower. Yet apparently some folks are determined to do so. That's a matter of personal standards I guess. Does anyone here remember when we used to complain about our lack of redzone consistency with Rivera and Newton? Even that is night and day compared to this. It's okay to have standards folks!

I'm relieved we split with the Falcons. It's a damn shame we got swept by the Saints considering all the changes in the division. Now we have to make sure we beat the Bucs. Can't get swept by Baker Mayfield. Come on now.

Actually most of the hate has been directed upon the players who helped with the game winning drive. Chuba was spectacular today. Mingo and Chark both had clutch grabs and they've been trashed left and right here. But I haven't seen the same level of hand wringing to defend them. And we didn’t trade a first overall and a top ten player at a position of need for them. The whole offense played better today. But at the end of the day the whole offense goes as the QB goes. Bryce was dialed in on that final drive. Hopefully we see more of that going forward.

Win is a win. He did enough to win. 9 points are 9 points though. There were similar posts like this made after the Texans game and then Bryce and the offense proceeded to freefall. I have zero expectations for the rest of the season. Next season is when I expect big things regardless of coaching personnel or any other circumstance. I will not be lowering the bar any further than it already has but that's my own personal opinion.

Honestly the "I'm a better fan than everyone else because I never complain" crowd have made this place just as if not more toxic.

I can't believe we actually won. 9 points lol

99 yards passing. So close...

Yeah but somehow Ridder has a passing touchdown

We're almost to 100 yards passing boys.

Guys the team is cheeks. If you're carrying water for this mess it's time to reevaluate. On the flip side we can criticize without sounding like Beavis and Butthead.

Unfortunately looks to be the case. Of course you can't tell this to the handful of folks trying to police every thread scanning for negative comments.

Right. Offense too. Run game had 200 yards last week and... *fart noise* lol

2.3 yards per attempt lol

It's tough to argue this offense isn't worse than 2010. Just brutal.

Not a good omen for Bryce Young considering he makes Teddy Bridgewater look like Cam Newton physically. No hard feelings for Teddy though. He let everyone know what time it was with the used car salesman. Of course it took bumbling Tepper many months later to figure it out.

Nasty day out. Might as well partake in another L and have some laughs at this mess in the meantime.
