Would love to see a lot more play action and screens with the running game working and pass game not working.

I agree 10000% on why are we not running...This is why I hate Whiz....we run when we should throw and we throw when we should run. We run Howling on a 3rd and 1 play 2 weeks ago into a stacked defensive front...and now after Howling gains 113 yards on 10 carries....we pass 4 times in a row with a ROOKIE QB.....How dumb is he???
It is just plain strange.

This I know
1) Kolb is our best QB by far, but always gets hurt it seems


Any QB in this league would get injured behind our Oline. Kolb proved hes tougher than most by haninging there as long as he did.

It's still nonsense.

Steve

Yeah, nonsense that Wiz "the offensive guru" hitched his wagon to Russ Grimm and no offensive coordinator and showed how inadequite he is running an offense. There is no nonsense in that!

Amazing that we are only winning by 3 with how well we have played on defense/rushing... amazing we are actually winning at all how horrible we have thrown the ball.
It's like the Jerry Seinfeld episode, if we lose 20 bucks, we find 20 bucks somewhere else...thus the Cardiacness. We could be up by 50 points, but it would still be a close game by the end of the fourth quarter. They want to take years off of our pathetic lives. :p

2) The Falcons are not an elite team
3) This game will find a way to show me things I will not believe, win or lose LOL

I agree with 1 and 3 but I just don't know about number 2. I've watched Atlanta play pretty uninspired ball at times this season and just when you count them out, they turn it on and dominate for a few minutes. I think this will bite them in the butt against the other elite teams but I think they have the players to be elite.

Awful giving up a drive like that in like 40 seconds. Going in with a lead at halftime getting the ball would have at least given some piece of mind.

Yup. If we had run the ball a few times, there would have been even less than 40 seconds. Stupid.

Well, this is a different argument and one that I agree with - Grimm needs to go. I have no problem with the legion of fans that think Whiz should be fired, I'm not in agreement with it just yet but the grace period is shrinking. But, some of you rip him for doing the same thing you'd rip him for if he hadn't done it. Staying with Skelton would in all likelihood brought about the same anti-Whiz rhetoric that benching him did.
