What's this thing the Falcons are doing where they're getting defenders close to Jordan Love while he's passing? Seems unfair; glad the Bears didn't resort to such underhanded tactics last week

yeah the QB should remain untouched and at peace

Lions played pretty bad and almost won. drat lovely way to get to 1-1.

I think the lions need a new d coordinator, he just can't call a good game plan.

Shocking that Jordan love doesn't look all that with the game on the line. Pretty funny that there's so much hype about him hitting 3 tds a game but c'mon, he had 150 yards against a mediocre defense

As someone who was following the game on RedZone as a second screen, I have no clue how the Packers lost that game. I saw every Love TD and any time the Falcons had the ball they seemed to be frustratingly kicking a FG on 4th and short from inside the 20

Definitely isn’t, particularly because of the incredibly egregious uncalled, holding on Hutch on that last play

The packers offense collapsed in the 4th quarter and Joe Barry’s defense did what it always does.

Eh I think he looked pretty solid

Not amazing and the preseason thought of "hey is he good under pressure at all?" might hold water, but solid and definitely capable of going far with a really good supporting cast (which he, um, may not have)

Missing: LT, LG, RB1, WR1, and lots of drops by both the defense and WRs. Falcons were smart to consistently dial up pressure on the left side of the line.

He didn't panic under pressure. Only one really bad throw all game. He wasn't the problem (Joe Barry).

51 points allowed two years ago, 48 last year, 37 this year, clearly Aaron Glenn is improving and deserves to keep his job

Yeah I'm really not high on Glenn. It seemed like there were so many open receivers for the Seahawks constantly. Not being able to bring Geno down despite constantly getting near him was frustrating as well.

He either runs upright so can’t break tackles nor fall forward to pick up extra yards, or just freaking stumbles over nothing. How did he not make that third and one in the fourth quarter

It was just a sloppy game overall though the biggest issue in the Packer game long term is they still can’t stop a competent RB
