Cash Monet posted:It's amazing how Steve Sarkisian has leveraged a few decent seasons at Washington into so many jobs. USC hired him because they were desperate to hire a He was hired as an offensive analyst at Bama in 2016, which is the type of job Brad Childresses of the world get when no one really wants them but a good head coach thinks they might have something to offer in the film room or whatever. They promoted him to OC after Lane Kiffin burned another bridge and walked away before the national championship game, which was Sark's only publicly visible game at Bama. He did alright, if anything Bama's defense lost that game/Deshaun Watson won it. The only wtf hire involved after Washington is really the Atlanta OC job. I have no idea why the Falcons hired him. e: oh duh, Dan Quinn. So Pete probably put a good recommendation for Quinn to hire Sark since Carrol likes him/Sarkisian had done a good job at USC. Anyway it seems more of a who do you know/lucking into things situation than a great agent. Grittybeard fucked around with this message at 17:51 on Sep 7, 2018 |

That game was unwatchable. I don't know who's more embarassing matt ryan or steve sarkisian but Atlanta should have won that game by two touchdowns at least. Pitiful performance from them. Foles looked awful, they either need alshon back asap or Wentz back asap

You ever tried making a catch on ball that's coming perfectly between your shoulders over the top of your head at full stride? Ryan hosed that pass up and Julio made a circus catch that was called incorrectly.

axeil posted:I really think Matt Ryan's issues last night were tied to his knee brace getting all hosed up. If it was too stiff/tight I can see that messing up his mechanics. I think his issues were tied to his o-line getting crunched like a beer can on Steve Austin's forehead. Rewatch it, pretty much every pass play ends with 2-3 defenders a step away from crushing him, and mostly on 4-man rushes. The only time the Falcons could work downfield was when they went max-protect. That could easily have been a 7-8 sack game if Ryan wasn't totally committed to throwing as fast as humanly possible. Bjay9 posted:You ever tried making a catch on ball that's coming perfectly between your shoulders over the top of your head at full stride? Ryan hosed that pass up and Julio made a circus catch that was called incorrectly. The ball was still moving as he slid out of bounds (0:07), and he didn't have it securely pinned to his helmet until he was all the way out (0:09). There never was a time when that was a catch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjrXOSFCRD0 Vengarr fucked around with this message at 20:46 on Sep 7, 2018 |

Ryan hosed that pass up and Julio made a circus catch that was called incorrectly. No but guys in the NFL make catches like that pretty frequently actually. He got to the right place but then didn't trust his hands enough to just let it drop in, which is something he does from time to time. I realize that it was called incorrectly but if he hadn't double caught it it would've been called correctly. To be 100% clear I'm not blaming him for it not being a catch but he could've avoided the situation entirely and to say otherwise isn't honest. What I'm really curious about is what happened on that interception because that was a really weird "route" that Julio was running; I just wonder what the story was with that and whose fault it was (I'm leaning towards Ryan) Vengarr posted:I think his issues were tied to his o-line getting crunched like a beer can on Steve Austin's forehead.

It really drives home how loving miraculous from start to finish that Super Bowl was. Almost everything went right, even the super low percentage stuff. Third/fourth down conversions, amazing performances from guys like Clement who aren't actually that good, etc. etc.

Yeah seriously, the interception was his fault but the ball got popped perfectly as soon as he made contact with it. He’ll learn and I feel like he’s going to be real good. Or at least he’d better be if Ertz keeps stone handing everything. And I like Clement but he’s not the guy who is going to bust stuff wide open without the line making openings. Other than his run through the world’s biggest hole I feel like the rest of the running yards were because Ajayi and Sproles were just brute forcing through people.

I honestly don't know how he consistently got 5 yards of cushion from the Eagles secondary in every single direction so loving often, like what the gently caress. although I guess as far as gameplans go "leave him wide open and hope Ryan fucks up in the red zone" worked out reasonably well

How come you never see the linebacker try to jam the running back in this kind of hell-coverage situation? You know you can't run with him, so charge in and plant him on his rear end. Linebackers are plenty good at that.
