I just can't absolve the offense completely. The defense was playing with all of their guys. The offense was without 4 of it's top 5 players. IT was time for the defense to step up and shut that mickey mouse outfit down. They don't trust their quarterback and the mental midget DC let's them run the damn ball down our throat. Literally the only way they can beat us is by running the ball and controlling the clock. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we saw transpire, it was the only way. We could have turned the ball over a bunch of times, but going into that game as a DC, you have to stop the run. Barry is a ******* moron. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FAH1223 Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I expected an L even up 12. Offense stagnated. Defense had no answers for the run. Seems like this theme will continue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrimiv Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 I expect most of us have seen then "Bears Still Suck" song/video. Is there a "Barry Still Sucks" equivalent out there yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker had 17 tackles and Campbell had 14. I haven't seen any impact plays from Campbell yet, but Quay is making his presence felt more this year.

Wearing the Radio Dot and working in somewhat quieter support in the middle, which was bound to happen if we ever found a high-round LB to pair up with him. It's actually kind of a rarity for us. The last time in which the higher-round picked ILB was good enough to make his counterpart seem quiet was what, the Johnny Holland/Brian Noble combo in the late 80's/early 90's?

You can't have that stance regarding TOP when you have the lead. A 5 minute drive with no points is still very valuable, 3 and out multiple times is unacceptable. simpler, and IMO correct way to view is that both units had chances to win/seal the game and neither did it. Both units kept the Falcons in the game, and Falcons were good enough to be able to win the game vs "not lose it" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally the only way they can beat us is by running the ball and controlling the clock. This, now I am getting a bit frustrated that LaFleur seems to rest players with minor injuries a bit more than I feel he should, but at the same I get that he doesn't want them reaggravating them and potentially making them worse. But man I feel like he's out of excuses if CW9 and AJ33 aren't returned for duty against the Saints. And I'll say I do think we may have come to expect a bit too much perfection out of this young offense. Plays such as when Musgrave and Love had a disconnect early on there are things that happen with young players and we have to live with them. And I hate this hate on Dillon who can't help that he's a power downhill runner and not a WR RB hybrid like Aaron Jones. And he never fumbled so putting the loss on him is just dumb. Defense though ... Man flashbacks to 2008 for sure. Rodgers may have failed to deliver in some close ones then like Love did in his final opportunity today, but both were put in that situation way too many times by an awful defense. I definitely point the finger at Barry today for once again getting burned on the edge by Robinson on the same exact play, just like Saquon Barkley did last year. Matt LaFleur needs to be pressured into firing him once this season is over, or be threatened with being fired himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If, as others predicted, we only win six or seven games, an excuse to fire Barry is the silver lining outcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't mind another big body in there to help vs the run Bumping this for obvious reasons. Does this 6'5 340lb F350 suck at playing the run or why the hell wasn't he activated to help in run D? Could've used him over a rookie like Brooks or Wooden, although I am very high on both those guys... just seems pass rushing is more their forte.
