Cam still a Falcon fan

Actually this works in our favor because Cam said himself that this gives him a little extra juice when we play the Falcons, so I'm all for it. 

 

If he's running around in Falcons gear, I have a problem with that (ahem, CJ) but I don't have a problem with a guy admitting that he's still a fan of the team he grew up with even if they are a division rival as long as he remembers who he plays for (and he does).

Yeah he totally knew he was going to grow up to be drafted #1 overall by the Carolina Panthers.

Duh. I didn't say he shouldn't be a falcon fan. But as a rule, I wish death upon every falcon fan. So to hear cam say it is just ugh.

But I'm actually glad he said it.

I can see why Cam likes Atlanta, let's see they drafted him first when many didn't want him and paid him $25 million.....oh wait....

 

I am a huge Newton fan but I absolutely despise Ryan and the Falcons along with the Redskins...hard for me to tell which I hate the worst.

 

As for the Falcons, I hope they lose every single game the play.  That would make me happy.  I hope that Hardy buries Ryan.

 

It's a division rival, and frankly, I wish he had of kept it to himself or said, '..before I became a pro, I was a fan of the Falcons, but, that my allegiance now is to the team that took a chance on me when others said I was not even worthy of the first round, much less the first pick.'

 

Is that so hard?    To give a few props to the team that drafted him?   Not trying to make a mountain out of a mole hole here; but, the fact is, if he does not starting putting up a few Ws in important games, no one is going to care where he plays or about his clothing line or his favorite teams.    Can he do it, sure.  Will he, we'll see.

 

That's how I feel...I'm sure Newton loses sleep over that...but, as a PSL holder, those are my feelings, rational or not.

I don't really know what I think. On one hand, I passionately hate the falcons, and hate that everyone now knows that Cam likes them, and feel like it's kind of fuged up to say your loyalty is practically with our biggest rivals.. On another, I wouldn't want him necessarily bullshitting otherwise. If he's honesty a falcon fan, fug it. Might as well say it. Just don't wear a fuging Ryan jersey.

I'm glad he said it.

It's the team he grew up loving of course he is still a fan. I give him rep for being honest. This has absolutely nothing to do with "loyalty" and anybody that can't see the big picture here is either a fuging moron or in second grade.

      Redzone Offense vs. KC by drive

      By Icege · Posted

      NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.

      Crazy stat

      The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
