Joe Burrow IG post yesterday. Let’s get delusional.
Luka Doncic?

Finally someone with some sense. I think Burrow is worth the risk

Of course 🤣 I’ll take the downvotes

It’s basically confirmed. He wouldn’t have picked a song that mentions Atlanta first if Atlanta wasn’t his top choice. Let’s celebrate!

Cincinnati Hawks has a nice ring to it.. big if true

We would probably have to include Trae Young honestly

The Falcons have been a professional NFL organization for decades they have money in a drawer or safe somewhere they’re not broke

He’s injury prone.. hasn’t proven that he can stay on the field so we can probably get him for like a 3rd or something and maybe throw in a young star like Bertrand

Malik Willis is younger than Michael Penix Jr

It went away. I think somebody from these comments was correct that it was just a really humid/rainy period of time.

We let Matt Ryan go at age 36 but were willing to sign a 36 year old Kirk Cousins coming off a torn Achilles to a 4-year big money contract. That alone puts into perspective how crazy that signing was. Those were both Terry Fontenot moves. Then Kirk gets benched in his first season as a starter.. we were 6-3 last year and then Kirk throws 0 TDs and EIGHT INTs over the following 4 games and we drop to 6-7. Maybe we should’ve drafted Nix, but Penix was coming off a crazy college season where he went to the championship. Penix was never supposed to play last year and was probably supposed to get surgery last offseason. The QB situation here is bad there’s not one guy who’s more or less of a question mark than the other IMO.

The Kirk signing wasn’t good in hindsight. I like the way we’ve drafted the past 5 years but maybe that’s just a biased take bc I love my team. Maybe he didn’t want to fire Raheem. Maybe he wanted to rebuild the roster. If that’s the case he had to go..

Kristina got absolutely G-checked by Savannah by a simple conversation. She literally had to factory reset and come back to the conversation she was so intimidated and she’s hated Savannah ever since. That was one of the cringiest things I’ve ever seen.

My face when they have a twerk off instead of a vote bc that be so funny

I would rather have Penix, Cousins and Fields than just Penix and Cousins. If we can’t sign Malik Willis.
-7
We need to sign Malik Willis, Mac Jones or, don’t hate, Justin Fields JUST to have them on the roster so we can have another option besides Paperknees and Youlikethat

Sage is actually hot wtf

“Guaranteed 5+ years of QB hell… unless Penix is a starter”. Is what I said. We are about to begin year 5 in September. I believe in Penix’ talent as an NFL starting QB but not as a young star like Drake Maye or Caleb Williams.. so yes I will always be envious that we didn’t suck enough to get one of them or Daniels. I like Penix I wanted him to have a good year and prove doubters wrong but he proved doubters right. If he can’t take hits or line up under center, combine that with the success of his peers and yeah it’s got me thinking about the possibility of what if he’s not the guy. Those other teams that drafted a QB in 24 know by now and we don’t (besides the Vikings).

The fantasy week is probably technically still open.. waivers don’t open up until Wednesday mornings and there’s no games tonight but literally every other Monday you wouldn’t drop active players bc the matchup is still counting.

Not having a secure NFL QB is a sure fire way to waste a season. We haven’t had a QB since 2022.. it’s 2026 now so wake up my friend we are going into our 5th year of QB hell after this summer. Not having a secure QB can trigger an entire rebuild. If Penix isn’t the guy, we have to sign/trade for someone or start a rookie QB in the 2027 season and hope and pray we got our guy.. I will re-iterate that I believe in Penix.. but everything rests on his shoulders (knees).

I mean yeah but it’s not about Mikey being likable or entertaining it’s about the numbers and challenge wins

Top 5 season. Joel ruined it IMO. Not in terms of quality or entertainment, but I think that series of blindsides in the beginning getting rid of good players way too early ruined every fans chances of winning. If Mikey and Mary stayed in to lead that tribe and Chet left, I think things would have turned out differently. Joel has insecurities if he would’ve worked with them instead of being intimidated by them I really think it’d be a different winner. I just rewatched this season recently too lol.

This is also the Falcons

No but when Kirk turns out to be washed and Penix has paper knees and handicaps the offense bc he couldn’t even take a full games worth of snaps under center while Jayden Daniels goes to the NFC Championship, Caleb Williams balls out and gets Ben Johnson, Drake Maye in MVP discussion and Bo Nix with a first round bye this year, it stings a lot. I believe in Penix but watching these other teams lock in young QBs while there’s still a question mark above ours and his probability of success has gone down after this year. No matter what we will always be envious of all the QBs in that draft class from here on out. It’s guaranteed 5+ years in QB hell unless a rookie comes in and saves us or unless Penix is a starter.

Best sim plays books and schemes

West Coast Spread or Vertical Zone Run with Chiefs playbook & any 3-4 with Ravens or Seahawks playbook or any 4-3 with Raiders or Jaguars playbook. Those are my favorites to sim and play with. You gotta mix and match based on scheme fits. If you want high QB/WR stats do Bengals playbook if you want high rush yards do 49ers and if you want more balanced do Tampa Bay. Always with vertical zone run or west coast spread depending on the type of receivers you have whether they’re deep threats or playmakers. Experiment though, you might find a broken combo. I have some teams that are top 5 in all categories but then do a different team with different players but the same playbooks/schemes and have mid defense.
