Listening to their sports radio here.  Everyone is pilling in on trading away Matt Ryan this offseason. It is pure entertainment!

Names they are throwing out are:

RG3 (imagine reuniting him with Kyle Shannahan, lol)

Colin Kap

Eli Manning

Johnny Manzell

And they are scared of the Panthers, no doubt, lol, if you can find the stream to listen online, it's great! 9.29 the game.

I heard this on the way to work this AM on 92.9.  The fans and sportscasters are out for blood.  After all the Superbowl predictions in the preseason, you would think the team was the CLE Browns now.  They are really after the OC in addition to Ryan.

I dont like Matty Choke at all, but this isnt all his fault, the GM should have been fired with Smith - he drafted poorly for years and spent a ton of money on bust FA signings.  They gave Ryan a huge deal so I doubt they dump him quick, or if they do they have a lot of dead money.  The only fan who called in who made any sense at all was one who pointed out their Oline has been dogsqueeze for years now, and that is a valid point.

One thing that has always struck me as putting extra pressure on the team is that Blank blackmailed the city into giving him a ton of taxpayer cash for the new stadium and now may not be able to fill the stadium (he also jacked up ticket prices).  Blank may be eating his hat if they dont get the team on the right track.  Frankly nothing would make me happier because Blank is a total scumbag.

There's been some chatter that Matt Ryan is having trouble with Kyle Shanahan's system.

Falcons fans thought they were going to ascend to the NFC South perennial playoff team as Brees retired and Matty Melt down entered his "prime".  Instead, they've watched Cam and the Panthers become that team, while their QB seems to regress every year.  And suddenly the other team that didn't even have a franchise QB, now has one who in his rookie year is performing at a higher level.  OUCH!

I think the fans are feeling the pressure of Cam and Jameis Winston in that division. Just when they thought they could alternate division titles with Cam with Brees passing his prime, then all of a sudden a 21 year old franchise QB pop outta nowhere ready to squeeze them out. Nothing wrong with Ryan, just he's not up to the level of Cam and Winston, thus leaving no room for him in this competitive division. Ryan would be a star in the NFC East or AFC South. As far as the NFC South is concerned Carolina and Tampa will alternate division title and wild card, don't see us sending 3 teams to the playoffs every year.

Slow your roll, let Tampa beat us for a division title before declaring we gonna alternate titles with them.  Winston has had a decent rookie campaign but it doesn't compare to Cam's rookie year.  It's taken until Cam's fifth year for him to really come into his own.  Winston isn't going to suddenly be the force Cam has become, once he closes the gap on current experience how much more will Cam have?  I think Jameis will be to Cam what Mickelson was to Tiger, a great player that isn't as great.  We're going to dominate the South for a long time, think Patriots AFC East long time.

3 years / 1000+ days as South champs already.  Do you see us regressing anytime soon?

EDIT: The last time the South had a champion other than the Panthers was 12/2/2012, exactly 1100 days ago.

Winston is nowhere near the level of Cam. And the Bucs won't unseat us anytime soon. Lovie Smith teams always fade.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By frankw · Posted

      You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.

      It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
