I'm going to start with Peterson.

The biggest contract does not make you the best. You need to stop worrying about looking like Deion Sanders because right now you are playing like his sister. Oh and one other thing..shut the F up! Enough of the " I want this guy" stuff because you got beat like a drum today.
If I were Bowles I would move him to nickel. Not kidding . He needs a heavy does of humble pie.

Drew Stanton.

I'm not suggesting playing QB in the NFL is easy, however, there are some fundamentals that should be well in place by now. The biggest one? STOP STARING AT YOUR PRIMARY RECEIVER. Do you not see on film how defensive players are reading your eyes? You are making it easy for them. Go back to square one. Take care of the ball and be patient.

Of course none of the above will really matter because too many of your passes are behing the WR or over his head. At this point accuracy cannot be taught. You either have it or you don't. Aside from the occasional spurt, deep ball, or garbage time it appears you don't.

I really hate being a Debbie Downer, but good lord 1 consolation TD in 11 quarters of football is beyond futile.

I'm not giving up on this team only because every team goes thru a bad stretch during a 16 game season. But as BA said, It's a quick elevator ride from the penthouse to the ****house.

To turn this thing around the two players mentioned above need to improve the most.

Didn't Peterson shut down Megatron last week now you want to move him lol. Our entire defense had a bad game our front seven hour blown off the ball all game against an Atlanta offensive line that's not really good

Hmm. One or two decent games...but he is the best DB in the league, right? Powers wouldn't have done any worse.

I don't think people really understand what we ask him to do. We blitz on passing downs more than anyone in the NFL that means in most cases he had no help at all. He really is out there by himself allot.

Sometimes you got to give credit to the other guy Julio Jones is good.

I hear what you're saying but let's be real, PP hasn't played that good all year except 4-5 games. At least not like a top paid CB & that's reality.

Julio has been covered by a lot of good corners yet today he had a career high... What about that bubble screen to Julio on 3rd down where PP just stood there and watched? Lemme guess it was the pass-rushes fault AMIRITE?

People would cut PP slack if he didn't talk so damn much. He talks as much and maybe more than Sherman and that's hard to do.

That's why I said what I said. If he can't cover their best guy then why do we ask him to do it? Why don't we mix it up?

Well, I think if you ask PP21 he will tell you himself that he's the best. He needs to be taken down a notch because he simply is not a pure shut down corner with the way the game is played today.

I love that nobody argued the Stanton points... meaning we are all in agreement that he blows?

Nah, I'd cut him some slack if he didn't sign the best contract for a cornerback in the league.

My issue is that he has a ridiculous contract AND that he talks so much. This year, he hasn't backed up either of those save three games.
