2 reasons we lost

[CATCH17]

1. Defense just lets you chip at them all day.. You mix in the run with chip passes all day then that is what you get.

2. To predictable on first down.

Offense did their job though at the end of the day.

If by the end of the day you mean the first half, then yes

 

[RS12]

Defense couldnt stop the run. Ordinary WRs couldnt get open. Defenses be like make Weeden beat us until proven other wise.

 

[DCBoysfan]

We lost because of the bad pick Weeden threw and getting the ball at mid-field and the getting that bad Free flag and having to eventually punt the ball. Those two sequences changed the game.

 

[bayeslife]

Defense isn't forcing any turnovers like they did last year. That's one of their biggest problems.

This 1000%. Weeden did his job, until he threw that stupid pick. That was the one thing he couldn't do. Game unraveled from there. Take a sack, hit a cheerleader in the back of the head, blow out your knee. Do anything other than give them a chance to get back in the game.

The day doesn't end after the 2nd quarter.

 

[CF74]

We played the same game in both halves. ATL shut it down once they came back from the locker room scream session...

Don't leave out Jason Witten. I'm so sick of his false starts and they seem to come at the absolute worst time. He has to be better than that.

Or sacks

 

[Aven8]

The offense didn't do any motioning and was basic and vanilla. Julio lined up all over the field. Creative offense!

 

[Brooksey]

The reason why we lost is we couldn't run the football in the second half. We were up 28-14 and blew it. Our runs were for -1 and -4 yards etc, something like that. Awful. We can't run the ball unless we have complete space like he did in the 1st quarter.

 

[SultanOfSix]

If the team loses the scoring battle 21-0 in the second half, then something is wrong with both the offense and defense.

Score one TD and you have a much better chance of winning this game. That was a pathetic showing on both sides of the ball and it started with the offense. If you're ahead and you get negative yardage on a run, sometimes you just have to run it again. A negative run doesn't always mean lets pass it now.

 

[Awakened]

We'll have the two McClains, Gregory, and Hardy back Week 7 against the Giants. It'll be a whole different defense.

 

[Deep_South]

We'll have the two McClains, Gregory, and Hardy back Week 7 against the Giants. It'll be a whole different defense.

I know it gets confusing, but Terrell McClain is out for the year. We should have Hardy and Gregory back for game 5 and Mincey whenever he can pass the concussion protocol.

 

[MiddleStar]

We'll have the two McClains, Gregory, and Hardy back Week 7 against the Giants. It'll be a whole different defense.

T. McClain is gone for the year.

 

[Blast From The Past]

Defense isn't forcing any turnovers like they did last year. That's one of their biggest problems.

Need to sack or hit the qb doing so will cause turnovers. Letting Matty Ice pick you apart will never win you any games.

 

[Redball Express]

1. Defense just lets you chip at them all day.. You mix in the run with chip passes all day then that is what you get.

2. To predictable on first down.

Offense did their job though at the end of the day.

We had no pass rush. Ryan had all day to throw..

tackliing was more than poor..

Marinnelli made no adjustment to stop Julio Jones..

they allowed Jones to go into the slot against Patman..

never moved a CB inside on him and never tok Jones and at least assigned double coverage whereever Jones went.

Unbelievably arrogent on Marinelli's part.

Weeden is not capable of throwing anything more than checkdowns and TE 5 yds. passes.

That will not get it.

We are definitely in very big trouble.

 

[Alexander]

I have one.

Rod Marinelli.

Completely out coached and unprepared after last week.

It has always been that way under Garrett, though. Rudimentary offense where each player has to beat his man matchups be damned. Don't see it changing anytime soon.
