I’ve never heard of any of these guys outside of Hayden hurst but it being the falcons they could all be starters 😂

 

Franks is their QB2.  Hurst is TE2.  Copeland and Vaughters are OLBs.  They might be thin at OLB.

I understand.  He is not the guy that makes you regret doubling Diggs.   So far no one is.  After Diggs  - Sanders, Davis, Beasley, McKenzie is a pretty solid and deep group.  
 

4 solid guys competing for 2 jobs is a good thing.  Toss in Kumerow and Stevenson, and WR is not a concern right now.  

Makes you wonder how this team would perform with another star receiver. They have higher priorities elsewhere, however.

Yeah, that's why I think Sills and the NFL medical experts went down a "wrong road" relying on masking and distancing to curb intra-facility covid transmission vs. Testing for All 🤷‍♂️  Plus, a lot of these guys are friends and will be getting together outside the facility, whereas if they know they're infected they would isolate.

 

So then we're down to hoping and praying they're right that these infections are largely asymptomatic in young NFL players.

 

But, they're the ones with the Data on contact tracing and transmission so we'll hope they're on the right path.

Community spread is the issue they have now chosen to ignore.  The players do not live in a vacuum or a bubble with just other players.   Just saying.

Weather beginning to look interesting for Sunday.

Freezing Fog.  Wonder how the Falcons, a dome team with basically 0 bad weather games this year will fare in the elements.

That along with the bills mafia noise will be a shock to their senses

My disappointment in him has less to do with his actual play and more to do with the expectations I had for him.  

 

My primary disappointment in Sanders has been that he's failed to haul in a number of passes he should have had. 

He has 6 games where he's caught less than 50% of the targets he had, including one game where he was 0 for 4 and one game 2 for 6.

He's only scored as having 3 drops on 72 targets, but the eyeball test for "yeah, a good NFL WR makes that catch" is higher.

I wrote, several times, that I thought he was the missing link.  That he would be the guy that allows this passing offense to take the next step and allow someone to be open on every pass play.  That wasn’t the case.  Partly because the OL regressed.  Partly because he wasn’t the player I thought we were getting.  I overestimated the impact his addition would make on the team. 

 

I'm with you - I thought that too and I've been disappointed.  But part of it is how teams are playing us and our inability to get them out of it with the run game and short passes.  I've seen some signs of promise the last few games.

my opponent (not a Bills fan) has Josh Allen going too.

 

That said, I am not conflicted. I want Allen and the Bills to do really well, and to obviously win. But if it so happens that Patterson has a good game and— say— Devin vultures in to steal some of Josh’s TD’s, then I will resign myself to accepting that result. 

 

I have the exact same player dilemma this weekend. If anyone scores for the Falcons, it better be CPatt.

 

As for Josh…I do have Diggs and Knox, so if Josh is gonna toss some TDs then those two only please!
