Don’t be mad at me cowartsh,you are what your record says you are,and Ryan’s says 0-3 with an embarrassing home loss after being the top seed and an offensive blanking versus the G-Men just for good measure. Ryan is partly to blame for one of the TEs in history(Tony G) never winning a playoff game. All the apologizing for Ryan is sickening. Ryan has better weapons than both Flacco and Sanchez,but has never even won a single playoff game. Not ONE. Pathetic.

Here’s a free lesson co-wart…raqaiw is right on. Matty Light is a joke.

Probably should try QB by committee.

Maybe they will be able to double their offensive production in the post season next year with this approach and score 4 points instead of 2!

“The way this roster has been built, we have some other backs that are very capable.”

So why haven’t they been used more late in the season when Mike was ” worn down” ?

I understand Jaquizz is a second year player, but Snelling has been there a while.

Maybe if they had a QB who didn’t slide two yards from a first down like Matt did against the Giants they would not need to ask so much from the RB.

It’s all about RB’s that can catch a pass and run for daylight in the new Dirk “Welcome Back,” Koetter offensive wrinkle with the new screen game being installed to get Matty Ice the ball out more on short passes. WR Harry Douglas has a chance to really shine. Julio Jones will be more aerodynamic without the dreads too.

RB by committee if a good move for almost any team. But it won’t help the Falcons in the playoffs with such a middle-of-the-pack QB at the helm.

This might be a team to avoid if you like rooting for winners. They’re due to slide back some.

I don’t think its smart to have a team run by a couple of running backs voting on things. I think they are misunderstanding what a running back runs. Then again, this is the same team that traded away all their draft picks for a WR.

Its a smart move keeping Turner fresh for the whole season. If they hit the playoffs, Turner will be more valuable than ever. Maybe this is what the Falcons were missing all along.
