ATL Week 5 

Post#1 » by MickeyDavis » Wed Oct 2, 2019 4:42 pm

Amazing how fast the NFL season goes.

Thursday night Rams/Seahawks could be good.

Otherwise this is one of the worst weeks off the season. Monday might be interesting.

Add Thielen's popping off about Cousins limitations. They've since made-nice, but how much is still percolating underneath? That's a talented team, but the offence especially seems to be fraying....

Can't believe I'm gonna somewhat defend Kirk Cousins, but both Theilen and Diggs I feel have become massively overrated, so the issue with that offense is more than just a noodle-arm QB. Cousins is still the main problem (especially considering he's the most overpaid QB in football), but I laughed a good deal when people were trying to say that the Vikings had the best WR duo in football. Neither guy is even the best wideout in the division.

They get the Giants without Barkley (most likely). But I'd love for Giants to win that game so there will be more implosions. And go Raiders.

A good deal of the issue is their coach. He fired his OC last year for throwing too much. He is doing the McCarthy thing of listening to that corollary stat of, ā€œif we run 25+ times, we’re 14-0ā€ which everyone knows is stupid because most of the time you’re running with a big lead.

I don’t think Cousins is that great, but you have to use him to win in 2019. I get the idea of leaning on your defense and trying to keep them fresh, but you have 2 excellent WRs and a decent enough QB (yes, I know he’s a punch line) - use them.

Hell of a play to rip that ball out. That's a fumble.

That was a Packers-esque performance by the Rams in scoring territory.

These Seattle uniforms are hideous they should lose just for wearing them.

Diggs would be an absolute monster with a top flight QB IMO. He's far more talented than Thielen, but he IS a bit of a punk.

How often can Matthews get screwed on these calls?

The NFL is becoming really hard to watch with these terrible calls from the refs

They might get one more chance.
