Not contesting anything all the way down the field, including on the five yard line? How do you do that? How?

Exactly!! Our linebackers should be in the rook's face ALL DAY!

But NOOOOOO, we play soft zone.

DISGUSTING!!

Welp, probably an overreaction on my part, but honestly, I haven't seen anything that egregious with playing that far off of receivers in situations where it makes no sense since Todd Lyght in 2000 with the Rams.

i was off the deep end on CP as well. I would still look for an upgrade but they only let off 1 first down until ATl converted that 4th an 6 in the 2nd half.

We did and the players on defense were the key.

The scheme the players under almost cost this team the game.

Dude.... Clancy had a good interior plan and a horrible perimeter scheme.

Make him the D-Line coach. Not my D coordinator.

With that being said.... We can talk about this another day. WOO HOO!!!!

Give Clancy and the players credit for one thing, they took away Atlanta's bread and butter. Turner was shut down and #32 wasn't any factor. Hats off to them for that!!!:thewave:

Car*s got their d back today. Cards D scored 9(8) points today, stuffed the Falcons run game except for one series, forced 3 TO's, at least 3 sacks and made Matty Ice look a bit like a rookie.

Pendy did a Fantastic job today.

Call it what you want. If that was not playing prevent defense, it is the closet thing to it. SuperSpck hit it dead on.

It was the players on defense who were the key. The scheme flat out stunk, and almost cost them dearly.

PS: Jerry Jones, it would not hurt my feelings if you got rid of Wade. He would make a great defensive coordinator for the Cards...

The scheme that DRIVE was horrid. The scheme for the rest of the game was excellent and a key to our victory.

Sorry folks Clancy isn't going anywhere.

That DRIVE was horrid. And yes the rest of the game was very good. But, good teams(Clancy are you listening?) go for the throat, and I just thank God the Falcons never got the ball back.

didn't we win the game?

Based on this game I would not fire anyone. Did we not win or am I am I missing something. Seems we played a good game all the way around. Our defense was outstanding when they had to be. Our running games was decent. Warner was Warner and Fitz and Boldin are all world. How does any fan find something to gripe about when we just one our first playoff game in something like 60 years. As far as I am concerned our year has been an absolute total success far exceeding my expectations. Any more wins is just gravy. Great job players. Great job coaches. You all came to play today when it really counted.

I should not forget the fans in the dome. They were as good as the players.

What you are missing is that those who "can" post on message boards; those who "can't" manage, coach and play the game. :D

At the NFL level at least.

We're missing a ton of information and are rarely in position to make accurate calls because of it, but the board does have a lot of football knowledge.

As long as it's taken with a grain of salt it's not bad.

Don't disagree. I didn't give him the nickname his high school teammates did.

Abomb tells me during the game that we missed the boat and should have had a sign that said "Matty, Ice Melts in the Desert"

Unless we get a 3 and out every posession there will be some that will not be happy.

Don't bother to bash my opinionbecause I ain't listening or reading. The damn defense held Turner to 40 yards and scored a td. If we played tight on that terrible drive (as some have put it), there would be somebody bitchin why we gave up the big play.

We won. We advance. Be happy at least for one day for Pete's sake.
