Falcons postgame positives and negatives

[NC_Skins]

A bit late, but here are my thoughts. I'm glad this team put up a valiant effort against the Falcons, but it really was such a shitty way to lose. Just think of how many starters we had out.

S, LG,WR,TE,CB.....five starters out and still carry these guys down to the wire. I think that says a lot about our depth.

Chris Baker is slowly becoming a stud on this line. Loved his effort out there and as well as the rest of the defense. They did a tremendous job holding Atlanta down and getting pressure on Ryan.

I have to say that I was really really disappointed in Garcon's play. This was the one thing I hated about this guy in Indy (as well as here). He's too damned inconsistent. He's brilliant in one game, and the next game drops passes that should be (and needs to be) caught.


Kirk was off most of the day except when the game was on the line. Needs to fix that accuracy up by throwing the ball sooner. It really was a shame Grant fell down and the game ended the way it did.

Our offensive line needs to block for the run better. Two games in a row our run game has been lack luster. Not sure it's because teams are stacking the box, or our RG/C are performing terrible. (I know Kory flat out sucked this past Sunday)


Also, I wanted to kick the coaches in the balls for that lame offensive series near the goal line that pretty much cost us a TD at the end. It was fucking dreadful.
