Just in Atlanta

Dude can't even hold onto his iPhone.

So, did he read this or what?

17 years ... and no passing game... but the AFC is OPEN. Do you think the hit on Rogers was dirty?

It costs money to run a newsroom. It's free to enter a coffee house. But you still have to pay five dollars for the latte. Don't be so cheap. Your subscription is literally less than a freaking latte.

Cord cutting. So many streaming options. Red Zone, Sunday Ticket, etc. Over saturation due to TNF. Just not special anymore. Less middle class interested due to CTE. Over officiating. Protests have also had an effect.

Bam!

Year after year, and new coach after new coach, it's the same thing: They implement their own schemes, make one unit much better, and the other, worse. Seems we always have either a D or O that performs at a playoff caliber and the other that doesn't. Bottom line, we had an offense in the top 12 last year that moved the chains. It worked, and was fun to watch to boot. I don't know if it's arrogance or just lack of knowledge, but we need to hire coordinators that can -- and will -- adapt to meet players' skillsets. It's difficult to envision this offense becoming playoff caliber this year. To make matters worse, we dismantled our wide receiver core and jettisoned a great backup RB, and never addressed the hemorrhage adequately. Our D is lights out. By the time our O catches up, I fear, it'll be time to dismantle the D again. Hopefully, with this new crew, our endless rinse and repeat cycle ends. In the meantime, I fail to see how this O can be anything but putrid.

Boo !@#$ing hoo. Taylor shouldnt even be mentioning himself in the same sentence is Aaron Rodgers. And Nobody talks about Russell Wilson this way, because he's a pocket passer, and a great quarterback. Last time I checked, the dude was black. Taylor is far from "perfect". 180 yards. Give me a break. Taylor, you do a lot of things well. You do a lot of things poorly, too. Learn how to be a better quarterback, and stop using the color of your skin as an excuse.

Fire that SOB!

Not sure if I approve of having drunken Catholics on our team.

The Fighting O's.

This "don't panic" and "chill out" post has literally come up every year since I've been on this board. At this point, when I read these, I feel like I'm being trolled. Year after year after year, same thing. We could get lucky, but not likely. This offense does not pass the eye test. Historically bad pass game, and with the injuries, and lack of depth, it does not appear as if it's going to get much better. This team is a year away from even thinking about the playoffs. After 17 years, however, I'm pretty chilled out. This defense is a joy to watch. And I'm optimistic about the future with this coaching staff.

Hoping for a modicum of substance after a brutal loss like this (or a happy win like last week). Some honesty doesn't imply airing dirty laundry. Think there is common ground between the styles of Billichick and Rex. I was hoping for something reassuring. "This broke down. That didn't go as planned. We need to work on X." Instead, spin and fluff.

Maybe he could've denigrated females? IDK. Either way, it's pure fluff.

No excuses. There's good and bad. Don't be so black-and-white. He's clearly not elite. But he needs weapons. That's a fact - whether you realize it or not.

He isn't "terrible," as one poster said, but he clearly cannot make quick decisions and anticipate routes. He's got to wait for the perfect hole. On one play, he had a clear six, but he waited too long because he was scared to throw it. In the NFL, this is not sustainable. On the positive side, with the exception of the last play, he doesn't give the ball up. He is extremely mobile, but I don't know why he didn't do it today. His offensive weapons, sans McCoy, are the worst in the league. Zay Jones thus far looks really bad. And we're without Matthews and Clay. Last year, he had one of the best deep balls in the league. I don't think there's been one all year. This is a direct result of the way below par wide receivers we have. And, maybe, the offensive coordinator. Bottom line, today: There were points to be had, but he didn't seize it. However, not too many quarterbacks could've done a lot with these "weapons."

From one extreme to the other: We go from a blow hard to this fluff. He didn't say one single thing of substance. Nothing. These press conference are a complete waste of time.

Wait, you can make personnel changes?

What does the Flat Earth Society think about this?

I hear the Summer's Eve brand is looking for a new pitch man. That's should clear his name.

So now that the reporter has been outed as saying something bigoted four years ago, now all we need is for a Navajo Indian to be offended and then disparage Mexican food or something. Then, the Circle of PC Outrage will be complete.

EJ Slotheyes.

Kyle Freaking Orton.

Tyrod threw for 180 yards Sunday. 180! Our run game has tried, but has been bottled up by very good defenses. West Coast or not, this a run first offense. You're delusional if you think losing McCoy - when no viable starting back up that I know of - wouldn't be big.

Well what happens if he slips on a mat or something? We are a run first offense. McCoy is (still) an electric runner and a gamechanger. Is this even up to debate?
