Two weeks, two wins.
Gotta say I didn't see that coming, but after having seen 2 games of the Dan Quinn era...with firing Mike Smith, the team seems to have flushed all of the bad game day calls, clock management, etc...the DEF is legit...they can stop the run...still need to see more consistent QB pressure, but this group is refreshing to watch.
OFC...Tamme is in better health now and you can see that he and Ryan are getting on the same page rather quickly...he knows when it's zone and man and knows exactly what to do. Julio is just a beast...I hope he gets thru this season in good health. I was an HD guy, but Hankerson is proving his worth.
Still strange that Roddy got zero targets last week...and not much has been said about in the media so maybe he's okay and the scheme dictated where the ball went. He hasn't complained (in the media)...so that's a good thing.
This game...no Romo, no Dez, probably no Whitten...on the Falcons...Tevin Coleman has a cracked rib, most likely out, but the DEF in DAL is better as well this year. Weeden is not starter material...he can throw it, but can't move well, and gets rattled...shut that run down and get after Weeden, I don't see how the Falcons can lose this one. Vegas thinks this is much closer, so maybe I'm missing something, but like
24-13 Falcons.
What say you?
