I voted no because in atlanta we are going to tear up their secondary so less runnning plays and IMO atlanta has a better run d then philly did

Starks may not have ran for a 100.. but the kid ran for some tough yards.

BTW.. his blitz pickups tonight were huge.. defenses can't queue on him to be in on only runs. Good game for the young man.

Where do the Falcons rate among the NFL in interceptions this year?

Among the highest. I think 4th best. But they obviously couldn't pick off Aaron. :thumbright:

Starks had like 26 attempts, right?

That should say it all. Didn't go over a 100, but fought and got mostly positive yardage.

Credit the O-line for being better than last time we faced the Falcons. If the O-line can maintain this level of play, and Starks can continue his good form.... we are a very, very dangerous offense.

25 carries, 66 yards, long of 13.

Edit, I don't think the OL did better, I think the RB carrying the ball did better. Countless times Starks was hit in the backfield or had to dodge defenders as soon as he touched the ball.

Ah, 1 off. I think the 25 carries speaks volume about Starks' success, at least it speaks more to his success than his numbers. Clearly if he was failing miserably, or not having adequate success, the coaches would not have given it to him 25 times to carry. And B-Jack had a really good run on one of his carries too.

A run game that defenses cannot completely forget about.... that is a beautiful thing.

That might be true. Starks also jumped over defenders and got a first down (or close to it) on one play also. He seems to put his head down and get positive yardage consistently.

I think it is safe to say Starks is our #1 RB right now.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : HUMP DAY

beast (8-Jan) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
