Looks like Damone Clark will play some defense against the Packers

[Risen Star]

Barr doubtful to play.

The Packers just can't catch a break.

9 on 7?? Who gets the extra players? Offense or defense?

I would think defense.

And the Packers is where Clark wanted to go. Said flat out he wanted to go to Green Bay.

Maybe he'll have a little something extra to make them regret the snub. Or maybe he'll deliberately throw the game to help his favorite team.

Let’s be honest.. Had Clark been able to play prior to the season starting.. Barr prob would not have been signed.

Personally, I’m ready to see what this kid can do over the rest of the season. Let’s see if he can come close to the hype. (Fingers crossed)

No, it's offense. It's a run drill where the offense includes the QB, RB, FB (F-TE), and Y-TE plus the o-line. Defense includes the lineman and backers.

Good!

Barr due to age and wear-n-tear is no longer the fast spring chicken he used to be 10 years ago, and it has shown and affected us when he's on the field. He's like Peters. Better to keep him as a backup "just in case" sideline coach type. Dan Quinn needs to stop being stubborn, giving favoritism to them old farts, and start playing/starting the young, faster, quicker and more athletic players in order to give them game experience and get them developed for the end of season and playoffs.

But he has been very steady here. His football awareness and ability shows. He made a key fumble recovery that cemented the Bears game. I still prefer him over Clark

Green Bay likes their guys WAY 2 much.

Sorry, I don't. Awareness means nothing if you physically can't get to the ball on time to make the play. I've seen Barr be the culprit of getting burned for big runs, even a few TDs, simply because he no longer has the speed, quickness and mobility to react as quick as he used to when he was younger. I'm tired of it. Seen enough. This injury is a blessing since it will force Dan Quinn to play Damone Clark and hopefully Jabril Cox as well going forward. Dan Quinn is starting to show why he was fired from Atlanta: stubborness and loyalty to old players over youth and better athleticism.

Who said it was football related?

 

[Doomsday]

Will be telling to see if Jabril Cox is active this week.

 

[Dallasfann]

I suppose it beats him having to play offense.

 

[Jarntt]

Oh baby, Clark starting. Let’s see what you got kid.





Now I’d really be giddy if we went Clark and Cox in the nickel. The team speed would be otherworldly

 

[ChuckA1]

Great. He should do well with more snaps

 

[tromofan]

Watching Clark on tape against Chicago, he has great speed and is rarely out of position. He has a good nose for the ball. Plus he wants to show out against GB for passing him up in the draft.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Zeke back to slow everything down.

I guessing two tighteneds, QB, RB, and the offensive line is the 9 versus the defenses front seven.
