Well, I guess I don't mind that reversal as much now.

Interesting as SOON as the Falcons started doing what Grubb does (throwing DEEP) the turnovers started coming. Yah you move it at times, but the deeper you're throwing, the percentage is lower for success on average.

Why isn't DK out there? Is he hurt?

Yah now saying a knee injury... I really hope it's not that knee that he had an injury on a couple years ago. That was a patellar issue but can end careers.

 

[Anointed One]

Not good... DK being taken off on a cart...

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

MYERS YOU FUCK!

k that was pretty good. I hated that decision btw...

I knew something felt good today, got to love those feelings where you are not stressing about the game at all before it starts. All you got to worry about is the Stupid all or nothing pass play selection. There is that 3rd TO. Wow what a call.

 

[Anointed One]

Picked off!

C. Bryant...

3 consecutive possessions w/ a defensive TO!

 

[HaroldSeattle]

The defense gets another turnover.

 

[blstoker]

That's a nice end to the drive that Cousins looked completely willing to give it away.

Man, I bench the defense this week.

Bryant needs to see the field more. I get he's a liability in pass but he has always been great against the run and we NEED that right now. It was really amusing that whenever Cody Barton was in and Bryant was out, teams ran. And then they passed when Bryant came in and Barton went out lol. And I think getting him in a safety role is big... little less of a liability compared to a CB for pass coverage.

I seem to recall in 2022 Bryant had a couple dropped INTs or ones that got called back because of a penalty that he didn't commit.

I wonder if Penix will come out on their next drive...

 

[blstoker]

Robinson has -2 yards rushing in the second half.

I wonder if Penix will come out on their next drive...

Looks like it.

 

[Sharkonabicycle]

I wonder if Penix will come out on their next drive...

Yep, they just said so. Might as well...

This was a huge win on the road for the Hawks... Losing 4 in a row wouldn't had sat well...

 

[blstoker]

Falcons throw in the towel

Bills/Rams/9ers next... BLEH. I had this pegged as a loss for us, but I definitely had the Giants pegged as one of our guaranteed wins.

If we can go into the bye 5-4 that's not bad... snag one from either LA or the Bills (both are home games, long way for the Bills to go but same could be said for the Giants). Then we get the bye and hopefully we get some folks back. 4 weeks would hopefully get some folks back for the 9ers game and give MacDonald a thorough chance to prep for them.

Good win today, now Chiefs gotta take care of business

I don't hold to the philosophy that there's only 1 way to run a game plan and that a run has to be run or the sky is falling. either of those passes is the easy completion they should have been everyone cheers. The complaints are that they didn't work - but they should have. 2nd and 8 is a run or pass, they play action and have a WIDE OPEN receiver and that should have been an easy 1st. 3rd and 8, almost obviously a passing down, receiver wide open - pass too high. Shoulda been an easy first. It wasn't the play calling - it was the execution.

I get it, but when you’re up, it’s always better to use that clock, especially when you have a horse like Walker … We tend to get a little pass happy
