We're all frustrated. We can eat each other or we can have honest realistic no punches pulled discussions and also hope for the best it we so choose. The poster you are referring to is not a example of silencing opinion though. That was Poundaway aka SBBlue who attacked anyone that said a negative word about the team and also later went down in flames on those previous accounts via meltdowns over Matt Rhule. Dude literally went down with the Rhule ship over it he defended that guy so much. Then came back and pretended nothing happened. Did the same thing with Bryce Young. If you're going to use an example try not to use the mentally ill. Honestly the mods did him a favor. This place was not healthy for him.

Banning people for being negative about a football team that has only had like 7 winning seasons in nearly 30 years sounds like a good way to nuke your own community. The noise isn't going to get any quieter once the season kicks off. We're going to be hearing about it until Bryce silences it. That's all there is to it.

Hey Tepper. You own the sports franchise with the worst win percentage in all of professional sports the last few years. How about getting some good publicity for a change?

He really just walked in and took the hat right off a strangers head like he owned the place. He's old enough to be someone's grandfather. Even if you can find a way to defend him this is just more bafflingly entitled behavior from the same man who threw a drink on an opposing fan. He is so thin skinned it is simply laughable. Just embarrassing. No way around it.

I understand your frustration. But let's not be the place that bans folks for such frivolous reasons.

I mean what else were we going to do we have to give him one last shot. I'm hoping from here all the sudden he's healthy the rest of his career for several seasons but that sounds like a dream scenario. At some point you just chalk it up to bad luck or some guys just have a higher propensity for injuries. We'll see.

In fairness to Chuba.... When every player on the defense and every fan in the stands knows we aren't going to pass because we have the worst pass offense in the league it makes it tough to run for any back. But we need a one two punch backfield we need someone that offers a different skillset we need a bruiser type to compliment him.

People are reactionary I agree. That's just sports fandom. We all can get that way at some time or another. But on the flip side. We also can't write too much from camp even if certain players wow us. Wasn't TMJ a camp hero a couple times then he disappeared in preseason? Man we've just had it rough all around. Tepper criticism aside. This fanbase has earned something worth watching at minimum.

He had 23 touchdowns in 2 seasons. Most of us assumed TMJ would be a major red zone threat. At the end of the day he seems to have fallen into the Dwayne Jarrett category. He just doesn't want it. Maybe Mingo could end up the same. Too early to call. Wayyyyyyy too early to call to throw our 1st round pick this year into the same mixed bag with them. Let's get him to camp.

TMJ balled out in college and we see what's become of him. Production or lack of production doesn't guarantee anything the right situation also makes a big impact for receivers. They can't throw to themselves. Also some of this is due to Bryce himself and I have no doubt as the season went on receivers got fed up with it. Would you keep trying to go full bore if your #1 pick couldn't hit you deep with the whole defense behind you? Hopefully Canales can fix some of these issues and at least get us back in the end zone more often. But we are still at the mercy of Bryce Young's physical traits. We'll see what happens.

This is hilarious. Honestly I think Cousins is overrated AF and this being the Falcons it's such an extra layer of schadenfreude

People have to chill with shitting on Mingo so much you'd think he's the worst pick we've made in the last several years. It's just becoming a robotic take at this point. If you're giving Bryce Young a mulligan because of the coaching and situation overall last year then Mingo deserves the same courtesy.

My only thing is. If this pick does not work out. For the love of everything please stop drafting players because they have local ties.

I like him overall. No reason not to support the kid. One big plus? We didn't draft him in the second round so hopefully he's a baller!

They're local fuging heros.

That was a pipe dream. Just stay put and draft BPA

I feel you but ultimately it was David Tepper who pushed for it.

Better hope the Falcons and Saints don't get their act together before us. They aren’t ran very well but they are still a far sight better than the Panthers.

Twitter is 100× worse than the huddle and most sports media folks with sources seem to navigate that just fine.

Lmfao and the Panthers traded a young playmaking WR on a contract that dwarfs Brown's for the smallest QB in the league. Ladies and gentlemen. David Tepper.

Sports media does this every year they play favorites no different than fans. Most of it is just outside noise that will go away as long as he shows he is committed to football. As for the difference to Bryce Young honestly you can chalk up most if not all of that to Alabama and Saban. Make no mistake though teams are keeping tabs on Bryce Young's progress and that will have an effect on the likelihood of any QB's lacking basic physical traits going anywhere near the top 10 again. BTW has anyone heard or read anything whatsoever about the S2? *crickets*

I hate to hear that for anyone. As flawed humans it's easy to get stuck in the rat race of adulthood and everyday life and ultimately trivial things we concern ourselves with and forget we're all navigating our own individual circumstances with health issues stress financial burdens etc. I sincerely hope things get better for you and your family and you can get back to doing what you enjoy most.

C WR TE but we don't need anymore reaching so BPA is fine. I really hope Morgan has learned a lot from watching Fitterer think he's the smartest guy in the room on draft night.

In all seriousness. Anything is better than admitting your first order of business after one of the worst rookie QB seasons of all time is...doing nothing. I cannot say enough that it gives Sam Darnold vibes.
