Really Good Video Analysis of Andy Dalton vs Falcons

[Hoenheim]

Andy Dalton making some questionable decision making. I watched a longer video from Unnecessary Blutness and he was saying similar things about Dalton not progressing through his reads/beyond read 1/check down. Hyper focusing on Diontae Johnson. 

Legette and Coker getting open alot of times, just not getting the ball or getting it late.

Interception when Dalton was targeting Ian Thomas was particularly egregious.  From our view he immediately looks like he's double or triple covered even before Dalton releases the ball. Bryce-like decision/throw there. And there was a dude wide open closer to Dalton on this play. 

Watching this kinda makes me want to tell Andy to use Diontae more as a distraction and throw it to XL and Coker more. Hell even Mingo couple times was wide open. But I don't blame him for not trusting Mingo. 

Looking on the bright side, the Oline giving Andy time to throw even with Christensen and Nijman filling in. And our rookie receivers are getting open.

Something else I noticed is even with our defense getting spanked all game long. This game was fairly close score wise through most of it.

No real excuse to not give Chubba bare minimum 25 carries a game. Dude confidently averages 5.0+ ypc a game 

He's only gotten over 20 carries once this year vs the Raiders and we won that game. Come the fug on Canales, it's not rocket science.
