Our WRs in 2009... My Thoughts

[44Deezel]

The receivers are fine. Zorn needs to find ways to better utilize the backs & TEs, protect the QB and develop either Thomas OR Kelley (hopefully both). They have much bigger needs elsewhere.

Remember how crappy the Falcons receivers were when Vick was their QB? Remember all the Vick apologists saying he had no one credible to throw to? Remember all the talk of TO going to the Falcons and how that would improve Vick's numbers?

Well those same WRs are there now and look at what they did this year. Roddy White's a pro-bowler. What's different? Hmmm...

Whats different ... is the QB! They don't have new linemen.

Are you saying get rid of Campbell?

If you watched the Playoff game today they showed that their line gave up 47 sacks last year and 17 this year... and the line says its all Matt Ryan for getting the ball out quickly like he is supposed to.

I think Campbell wants to get the ball out quickly, but doesn;t want to throw into tight coverage and get a pick. When receivers aren't open its hard to run a pass offense.

I hope we can do right by the line, or next season will be a repeat of this season.

Kind of. I said it before, 156 yards in a meaningless game is inexplicable. Who cares about INTs in that case? Open or not, let 'er rip. The receivers did have the dropsies, but Campbell made some bad passes as well (ARE was open on a bomb and Campbell overthrew him). Campbell had plenty of time all day as well. I still think Kelly or Thomas will step up and ARE can move into the 3rd slot. No need to shop for WRs.
