Kyle Pitts was the product of ESPN hype and Jerry Jones 

 

Dude's on pace for ~75rec/1100+ yards in this dogcrap offense. That's a damn good rookie campaign. Plug him in here and he would be insane.

I can't help but feel for guys like that.  It's a bit like Norwood - those "so close" moments that don't pan out.

 

I'm sure athletes are wired differently, but I'd be a mess w/ stuff like that. 

 

 

I'll never forgive him or his team for what they did to me that night.

This Falcons team has no fight in them. Reminds me of mid 2000s Bills. Where the heck is Pitts? Guy was supposed to be the next Antonia Gates. He needs to be a better outlet for Matt Ryan from all the pressure he faces. 

 

I think they’re doubling him up because who else does Atlanta have?

I hope really hope that stupid Jax game doesn't come back to bite us in the *** in the division race. 

 

At this point, we still control that.

We traded Lee Smith to Atlanta for a 7th rounder in 2022.

 

”I don’t cut.”

A strategy and implementation of a strategy are very different things. That being said, if they can keep Pitts and still have a chance at a decent QB, that is likely the preferred approach.

It’s an insane strategy and there is zero chance the Falcons would even consider it.  You don’t trade your most talented player on the second year of his rookie deal. Period. 

[Just in Atlanta]

Who is this Mac Jones guy? I haven’t heard of him before. Do the announcers think he’s amazing?

[billsherd]

Does the field have that black/grey shade to it or is just my screen?

 A tight end isn’t worth the forth pick in the draft especially when your qb is 35 and been crappy for 3 years despite having Julio Jones and Steven Ridley to throw to 

[Bubba Gump]

NE goes 3 and out. Joe Bucks response.......that's only Mac Jones 2nd incompletion. Asshat

Do I follow football?

 

We're both obviously watching an Atlanta Falcons game.

 

Voluntarily too, at least in my case and I assume yours as well. 

 

LOL

 

Touche’.  But Ryan has produced a lot of passing offense consistently since the SB - >4000 yds passing, with enough passing yards and a good enough TD/INT ratio to win games if there’s a defense and a bit of a rush game.  2018 was a good year for him.  35 TD, 7 INT, >300 ypg

 

It’s just not true that he’s never been good since that SB

Geez, the receivers are having to fight and scrap just to get back to the LOS

[Sharky7337]

Falcons more penalties then first downs .... futile lol

[HappyDays]

What are these route combinations? The Falcons do nothing well. 

[billsherd]

Atlanta is going backwards..

[Hapless Bills Fan]

Did two Atlanta WR just collide

 

Even Aikman just commented “that’s not a well designed pass concept” and “I’d like to believe one of them ran the wrong route”

[DapperCam]

Somebody didn’t run their route correctly…

That’s what I’ve been asking., and even Aikman commented

By half of a game and a couple tie breakers

[Turk71]

Falcons should fire their OC immediately

[Steptide]

This is brutal. Goodnight

The kid (Jones) is smart and accurate throwing 7 yard or less passes on most downs. Shows very little athleticism or improvisation ability. Large large gap between the Ceilings of guys like Allen , Mahomes and Herbert and guys like Jones, but with a really sound team around him they’ll be a pain to deal with still.
