I see lots of people blaming the defense, but (according to this article) in the 4th quarter the offense got 11 yard on 10 plays, and Love did not complete a single pass.

Some are calling for Barry's job... but why has no one questioned LaFleaur's job? Defense did better than the offense there.

I've been saying offense lost the game. You can't go three and out over and over when you got 12 point lead. It's the 2020 NFC Championship deal all over. Minus the defense getting turnovers haha

I'm going with a TEAM loss.

Total breakdown in the 4th quarter.
Both sides of the ball and the coaches could have been better
Nobody is giving Arlanta any credit.
They stuck with their gameplan, and it worked.

Who here, looking at the schedule, would have taken a 1-1 record after starting the season with 2 away games?

Here is what I would do moving foward.
1. Put David Bakhtiari on IR. The bullsh-t of is he going to play every week is just a distraction. The Packers want him for the 2nd half of the season. New rules, he can come back after 3 weeks or leave him there until he is as close to 100% as possible.
2. The same with Elton Jenkins, he is going to be out a minimum of 3 games(4 weeks).
That frees up 2 roster spots.
Keeping 10 O-linemen on the 53, sure looks like a good move.

Promote Patrick Taylor and Innis Gaines to the 53.

For some reason, 33 can't go use Taylor and Wilson in his spot and get Dillon back to what he does best.

Win at Home, split on the road(which is impossible this year)with 9 away games.
Will get you in the playoffs.
Packers have 2 home games in 5 days, get ready and Go!

I'll take it! I'm just tired of the general reactions of something good happened give credit to the offense, or something bad happened, give credit to the defense.

Spread that out.

And I'll absolutely give credit to the Falcons head coach, he consistently found ways to win on the Titans with a lack of weapons.

And the new defensive coordinator, with a lot of new FA vets, turned one of the worst defenses into what seems to be a pretty decent one so far.

We did all right. Just didn't drain the clock at the end.

Not to jinx, but I don't think the defense is "bad," they just ran out of gas against that run game. What was our time of possession?

---

Falcons dominated much of the box score

Time Of Possession 36:15 -23:45
Total Plays 78 -47
Total Yards 446 -224

Teachable moment. Help your defense. Get that time of possession. Other than that, we win this game.

Too early to anoint Love. I'm his biggest fan, but he's in that initial phase. DCs are getting to realize he can get it done. Soon they will start blitzing him, see if he can still get it done.
