Penalties 8-92 1-10

Instead of blaming the refs for the penalties, why don't we blame the people really responsible. Like Bushrod, whose false start cost us a TD. Like Porter's back-to-back PI penalties that put them on the one yard line. Like Dunbar's late hit on Ryan. There's no doubt that there were some penalties on the Falcons that weren't called. They were holding Will Smith all night for example and the only way their receivers get open is by pushing off. But until we clean up our own act, I don't think we have a lot of room to complain.

Actually defensive backs are taught that if they are beat/lose the ball on a WR in the endzone to do a PI so the defense has a chance to force a turnover or hold them to 3 instead of the other team getting a TD... Also, Atlanta got a magical no-call when their safety face guarded Lance Moore in the endzone compared to when Porter did it, he got called.
