Matt Ryan running.... (1 Viewer)

He looks like he runs with crutches. Hobble hobble hobble...1st down.

Our DEs lose containment on their pass rush, Always seem to take an inside rush. Klein just doesn’t have the speed to get to the edge. I think one of Ryan’s runs was against Davenport and the other against Hendrickson. As bad as the D was they still only gave up 311 yards total. That isn’t bad. The O didn’t hold up their end of it today. On Atlanta’s first TD, the right tackle moved early, then stood up before the snap. How is that not a false start?

Next QB for this team, HAS to be mobile snd evasive in the pocket. It is an absolute MUST! Drew has never been an evasive QB in the pocket; never. When the pocket begins to close in, the height issue comes into play because he cannot sense the way out of trouble. He panics a bit and gets his feet moving but with no rhyme or reason, like a Rodgers is able to do.

Are you serious? Brees has some of the best pocket presence of any QB that has ever played. Look at the play when TQS dropped the pass, Brees evaded the rush and kept his eyes down the field the entire time.

When you are in man coverage and the DB’s are running downfield with WR’s on deep routes, it creates a natural out for the QB to take off and run, regardless of who the QB is and his mobility. It happens a lot in the NFL, because the DB’s are running with their backs to the ball and the LB’s are playing the underneath middle of the field routes.

I understand that. My point is kind of that a d-lineman should run faster than Ryan on a gimpy ankle. Don’t expect the secondary to make that play.

Because he played for the Saints' opponent.
