You gotta go 3-1 the rest of the way which is very doable. It's gonna be close I think.

Very close. 3-1 is doable, heck 4-0 is doable. @LA and SF should be 2 easy wins, then we are very capable of beating both Carolina and NO. 

I don't have much to add today lol. I went back and rewatched it like I normally do but I still have nothing. This game is just one that hurts but hopefully it won't kill the season. We've got 2 games in a row that should be wins to get us back on track 

One of the weirdest losses I've ever seen. Like wtf was that 

I was on the road all day, just got to sit down and watch the game @Thomas. Gabriel is going to make it even tougher for d coordinators to game plan for us. The more we put on tape the more people have to worry about. That man is blazing fast, and Sanu and Hardy both looked great today. That catch by Hardy with Peterson on him was crazy. We can only stop ourselves, there is no defense that can contain us. As long as Matt spreads the ball around we are unguardable.

Vic is a monster, I mean wow. I believed in him but good lord is this man special. He and Freeney together is tough. Saw Grady getting pressure again today too. I was a little worried after hearing Tru was done for the year but dang Collins gave me a big sigh of relief today. Dude was balling. His measureables are crazy and now he's putting that to good use. Even when people were making catches on him he was in their hip pocket. Had great coverage all day. Poole looked good as always and Rocky looked good today too. I think we're good going foward. Glad devondre had that big play at the end as well. 

Ridley looks good, Nauta looks good, we've got big guys coming in...skill positions should be taken care of. As long as we can get this line to block the offense should be clicking next year 

Defense made plays but we need help up the middle badly. Babs just isn't babs anymore...we've got to get one in the draft. 

We focused to much on Julio today but if they're gonna single him like that all day I would throw it to him everytime as well, that late drop hurt tho. Ugly game, it happens. Vic is still BEASTING and Neal is a hit man and I love it. We're good, ugly games happen 

It's amazing how much perception can be swayed when you don't get to keep up with players and teams yourself. I haven't been able to watch basketball much lately bc of my schedule but the national media would have you thinking this guy was a terrible player now and an even worse person. I'm happy as hell to have him on the team now and can't wait to see what the future looks like with him. 

Cavs will definitely come with a different look next time we play them bc they know TT is not going to be effective against D8. So hopefully we combat that with some shuffling of our own...I trust Bud so I'm not really worried 

How did they let this guy go? I guess that's y they're the Browns lol

Have you ever admitted to being wrong about anything? 

I literally laughed out loud at this.

i get that the defense still needs to improve, I'm sure we all feel that way, but last night wasn't a good game to use as a talking point for that. We knew the d was young coming into the year, we knew there would be growing pains, but if you can't see the talent and the progression like @Thomas said from the beginning of the year until now.....I don't know what to say. 

Bc I actually watched the game those stats mean nothing to me. I saw this defense performing pretty damn good. Same thing against carolina, garbage points man. When your offense is scoring at this rate at some point you're going to exchange yards for clock. That's just kind of how it goes

Great win tonight but our defense has to stop giving up all these yards and touchdowns. We can't ask the offense to score 43 points every game to save the game from a defense that just looks awful 7 out of 10 snaps.

Come on man, are you serious? You're joking right? They gave up the early TD and then Tampa scored bc of the short field that Matt gave them with the fumble....then they literally did nothing until garbage time. We controlled this game on both ends. Grady got your 2 sacks from the middle, I thought you would be happy man. Did you see the hits these young dudes were laying out there? Neal crushed everything on the inside of Mike Evans, and Collins just flattened Winston. This defense is ok 

Absolutely. Hooper can be special, and in this offense he's going to get his chances. 

Hey @Sothron I think Grady heard you lol. 

@Thomas Hooper is really impressive and Toilolo is a heck of a blocker and surprises every now and then with big plays. I've heard good things about Perkins but I'll hold out on crowning him until I see it myself. But TE does look promising 

That man is 5'8....that's crazy 

Ok fella. 

Aye man I think you're a little to up in arms about this. Volt seats are a color scheme. Has nothing to do with where the seats are. Are you ok?

Compared to last year its hard not to see our improvement. Including a lot of the youth involved here on both offense and defense.

That's all I'm saying. I saw it early on that there was just a difference in the way they're playing. They may still give up yards and points but they're playing different. That line in particular is starting to play together nicely. The stunts that they pull weekly just shows the type of cohesion they have now bc you can't do that type of stuff with guys who aren't gelling. It's coming together, next year these guys should be pretty damn good 

Now that's funny right there lol

Bruh Grady has a sack. The pressure is coming. Clayborn actually got a sack from inside yesterday. Grady is doing his job and doing it well. You have to stop looking at stats to validate these young guys. They're putting in work and it's coming together. 

He gets a lot of penetration upfield, I will say that he's not completing those plays yet but he's getting major penetration. Give him some time and he'll be one of the best in the league. He and Vic together for years to come is going to be special....I'm telling you 

https://t.co/7SxzoikPbx

check Grady beside Vic. Vic got the sack bc they pulled a stunt and Grady performed his job to perfection by eating up both the guard and the tackle allowing Vic to loop around and get that free look on rivers. This is just one example but my man has been killing it all year actually. @Sothron

He's the nose actually 

Yo @Sothron, are you looking for stats or just good play from Grady? Bc if you're looking for stats I understand your complaint but if you're just looking at his play that man has been pretty damn good this year. I'll try to find a couple gifs to show you if I can but that guy has been BEASTING 

@Spud2Nique you beat me today in fantasy but I'll take that with another Falcons victory. I like what I'm seeing from the pass rush and the offense is amazing. Vic is a stud.
