He deserved to be fired. 19 minutes ago, Ray Reed said: I was told 11 wins. I was told Smith wasn't on the hot seat this year. I was told Ridder had generational ability. I was lied to. Right to my face. Meh, I was lied to and was just passing it along. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you get your rocks off any chance you get to bash Derek Carr, but he's far better than any QB on the Falcons roster. He also actually played pretty well over the last 5-6 games of the season for us. It could be far worse, it's not like we're putting Jimmy G or Aiden O'connell out there every week 😂 Edited January 8 by tyler735 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would rather be them than stuck with a 100 mil gtd wrapped in a mid QB who only managed one more win than Jimmy G and O'connell despite the easiest schedule in football. And the Saints are my #2 team. Fire Allen, cut Carr and rebuild already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football_Bachelor08 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I've never seen a coach more clueless about how to use his weapons than Arthur Smith. If this guy were coaching the 2021 Rams, the offense would have been run through Tyler Higbee and Van Jefferson. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie man Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I just want to chime in again and say good riddance Trash coach I'm not sure who's gonna pick him up and what for. I hope Atlanta gets a play caller who can actually help that offense fill its potential 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaveOurSonics Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Everyone's going to mention Pitts & Bijan, but what I'm excited about is the next Head Coach finally unlocking the immense potential that I've been told Desmond Ridder has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gonna have to work seriously hard on Ridder between the ears to make that happen. Tools wise and mechanics he is everything you want a franchise QB to be. Pretty big arm, Solid size for a QB at 6'3 215, Above avg speed, can make all the throws to anywhere on the field. But lord his processing speed and trying to forc ehim to read anything more than 1 read was a nightmare. Add that onto him being sloppy with the ball when having to think to much and it was just terrifying. But as said if someone can ever get to him and maybe it comes with experience sitting behind a vet QB thats good for a few years and working with him. Then he might turn into a very solid Qb in the future but the falcons imo aren't the team to do that unless we go with a guy like Cousins for a few years and Ridder learns under him.

El Ramster Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 How the hell did this guy make Tanne look like prime Brees??? Such a got damm shame. Guy ran his offense thru Jonnu and goal line merchant Tyler.. Unreal. Just wasted and set back Atlanta back 2-3 years. They could have made the playoffs with so many other coaches.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 2 guys you could hand ball off or throw to - Derrick Henry & AJ Brown. No Mack Hollins or backup RB to give more touches/targets as "top 10 players" (Allgeir lol). Didn't waste draft capital on TE so Jonnu Smith wouldn't steal targets either. 3. Mike Vrabel in charge, to prevent all the boneheaded personnel decisions Smiith made in ATL (imagine Vrabel if he had Bijan Robinson and he'd watch Tyler Allgier out-touch him overall and even more in the RZ). Smith was a creative run playcaller. But it's clear that was his thing, and he wasn't really that good of an OC (if he didn't understand personnel to the extent of ATL). And if he wasn't that good of an OC.....well, HC was even worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tons of guys have shown flashes, but in the NFL it takes a lot more than that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
