Atlanta Falcons vs New England Patriots Super Bowl LI Thread

They're lucky they don't live in somewhere Latin America...this type of fail could lead to tragedy...of course I'm joking but this is unbelievable!?! I thought we cornered the market on this sort of thing but Atlanta will never live this down...ever.

it is not the coaches fault, completely, Ryan has to know he couldn't take a sack.
 
How dumb are coaches these days? How absolutely dumb.

2nd and 1 on the 1, 1 timeout left, Seattle passes... when they have Marshawn Lynch

2nd and 11 on the New England 42, Atlanta passes, incomplete.

3rd and 11, they pass again, 9 yard sack.

3rd and 1 tries passing again and fumbles...

Just like Garrett against Green Bay... I seriously need to know, what gives...
 
Dude you're not kidding...I couldn't handle something like that. Everything happens for a reason and now I know why we didn't make it to the SB!
I would have knocked all the treats off the table......Maybe it was good we have to wait.
 
You'd think if Atlanta just run the ball and chewed clock...no way the Pats come back. Maybe Quinn is not so great of a coach after all.
 
Aside from actual play calling which was the worst I've ever seen, Ryan kept snapping the ball with 10-15 seconds on the play clock over and over in the 4th quarter. I give Brady and the Pats all the respect in the world for being able to take advantage, but the Falcons straight up gave that game away.
 
Worst time mismanagement and poor play call that I've ever seen...

Passing when you should be running, snapping the ball with 10-20 seconds left on the clock on numerous plays... the Patriots needed two scoring drives to tie the game, and thus they needed the time to accomplish this. They get one more first down and they could have put the game away on time alone... let alone the field goal.

I hear ya...he definitely should've thrown it away...but you and I both know as a coach you need to save players from themselves in that situation...you're in GIMME FG range up 8 and tacking on 3 basically ends it...run the dang ball, make 'em burn the remaining timeouts and go up by 11 with less than 4 minutes to go...that was a NO BRAINER...
