Mariota (2 Viewers)

Mariota is going to tear up this supposed dominat defense

quick 5 yard slants screens and crossess all game

3/5 new staters in the secondary? What can go wrong?

will have a massive amount of miscommunication on ATL pick plays. Who takes who? secondary standing still lokking at each other

Saints defensive front wont effect this game because Mariota will have the ball out quick or run designed RPOs

Jameis Winston 31- ATL 24
I'd double check those cookies Latka left laying around. They might be laced with something.

I mean seriously……you think this dude is capable of making sound decisions on a football field??? Look at that shirt. The fit, design, pattern, buttoned all the way up?!?! New Iberia haircut as the cherry on top!!! This is 2022, not 1996. I blame the woman in that picture. How does she let him leave the house looking like that?

I mean, to be fair, she's basically wearing the same thing as him.

Spit my coffee out at “New Iberia haircut”! (No offense to any Iberia Parish members)😉
 
I’m about as worried about Mr. DIY Haircut as I was worried about Mitch the biscuit Tribusky the last time we played the bears. Which was not at all worried.

Edit- SweetT beat me to it, tip of the cap

Mariota might want to prove he should have been the #1 pick in 2015. Hopefully that will make him try too hard when throwing to his sorry WRs.
 
We need to look as dominant against the garbage Falcons as the Bills were over the defending SB Champs. That's your baseline to see if we are for real or not. Don't give me that "division game" excuse, the Falcons from top to bottom are a bad team that we should dominate.

Take a look at this depth chart.


If the Falcons score more than 2 TDs on us. Our defense is loafing, and not elite. Spot the -5.5 points. If we have any hope of winning the division this year. We have to dominate on defense.

Repeat after me: "I will not overreact to week 1."


As for Mariota and his running threat. I mean...are running QBs the greatest players in the league or is it still dictated by passing from the pocket? You can basically sit back in zone and dare him to beat us with his arm. You pass rush to contain him and rely on pressure in his face from your tackles or guys like Onyemata or Turner.

Stay disciplined. On both the read option and all the fakes and misdirections they're sure to throw at us.

Another thing is they can only throw all that extra stuff at us if they have the luxury of keeping the game close. If our offense can be crisp and efficient and put up points nearly every possession, then that takes away Mariota's legs just as effectively as a QB spy with 95 speed on Madden would.

Wait a minute so if we win 31-20 our defense isn’t elite? This is nonsense. We can win by 30 or by 3 and it means the same thing, we won in week 1 and need to continue to get better.

I was thinking the same thing as I watched last nights game. We need to go in there and send a message.
 
Not gonna lie, I am nervous. I won't discount the Falcons because of their lack of big names on offense.
All in all, we'll see how good DA is and how well he can prepare this team. With the new pieces we have, I won't be surprised to see the Falcons attack us deep. So if anyone needs to have a big game, it's definitely Cam!
