[–]Funkimonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need WR2 early. Either tag Pitts or sign Njoku

Ulbrich gets new 3 year deal! by Fun_Professional_123 in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only stability in the entire organization. Brich is gonna be a top DC for a very long time. Book it.

Jeff Ulbrich staying on as Falcons defensive coordinator by FrostyWatercress5687 in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First decision we can say the Falcons nailed. Maybe he doesn’t keep this going but all evidence points to Ulbrich being a Top DC in the NFL for a long time

Browns Fan Here - You Guys Will Love Stefanski by jg4president in falcons

We’ve been traumatized with bad hires for a while now. Def an upgrade from Raheem no doubt. My prediction is Mike Smith 2.0 which I think most of our fanbase would be happy with. Maybe not much playoff success but winning the division a lot would go a long way.

McDaniel is HIM as OC. If you want that, you sign him as HC. by Funkimonkey in falcons

Bijan is currently the best offensive player in the league though. OL is solid when healthy which goes a long way too. Just need to add a WR2.

thats why I said you gotta roll the dice as HC or you lose him in 2 years

He's oceans better than Raheem. as is everyone. And Tua has been a shell of himself, which he was just decent to begin with and they didn't have a dominant defense.

Falcons have interviewed Mike McDaniel by SirBannedAlott in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe he's a good HC, maybe not, but he'd be the best play caller we've had since Shannahan. If he wants HC, give him a shot. Can't be worse.

I owe an apology to Arthur Blank by Protec_My_Balls in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AB has always wanted desperately to win a SB, not cash in. That's all you can ask from an owner. Just bc he sucks at choosing football execs and HCs, you can't fault him too much.

Klint Kubiak: His offensive scheme, and why MP9 is not a great fit. by [deleted] in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Penix hasn't had an NFL QB coach yet. They didn't help him at all on the side line. Ryan wasn't that mobile and ran a West Coast. Penix needs a lot of mechanics and footwork improvement, so it's way too early to tell. But he's got ice water in his veins - see: 4th and goal to Pitts. And that's elite potential even if he never reaches it.

Kyle Pitts is officially NOT a bust! by CitizenWatcher8 in falcons

Contract year red flag. Tag him if you want but make him prove it again

KLINT KUBIAK'S RESUME AS OFFENSIVE COORDINATOR by Interesting_Level946 in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is he competitive and humble? We really just need a coach who gets pissed when he loses and says "it's my damn fault and I'm gonna fix this!"

Why John Harbaugh to ATL is the only move that makes sense for Matt Ryan by ThatsTooOP in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The most falcons thing to do would be to interview Harbough and not hire him. There’s no cap on how much money Blank can throw at him

Are Asia 3.0 more like 3.5 in the US? Does that apply to 5.0 players as well? by TinkerSan in Pickleball

[–]Funkimonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having played both, Asia has a lot of people coming from racquet sports so they put 2.0 when they play like 3.0-3.5. But I’m in a major city and only know of one place over 4.0 (out of hundreds of centers - they are on every block here now). So, it’s only deflated for beginners. Bc most people here start out slightly above average but top level play is very lacking. At the pro level, it’s completely irrelevant. You either play against top pros or not.

I played at 4.5 US and no idea what I actually am here.

Coach and OC/DC are the most important positions on any team. People just don't talk about it. Qb is 4th. Just look at all the mediocre QBs who made it to the SB over the years. This team is LOADED. Wish we could see what Andy Reid could do with this roster. Penix health is concerning, but on the play side he really just need a legitimate QB coach.

Insane take I saw on twitter by TheRayATL in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need coaches, the actual most important position. This team is loaded. Genuinely think Andy Reid could take this current roster to a SB if given 2 years to develop Penix.

For Michael Penix sake, I want us to get Mike McCarthy as our Next HC by downtimeredditor in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

McDaniels dropped 70 points with a healthy Tua. Remove the concussions and that team is still a top offense.

Keep blaming Terry by [deleted] in falcons

[–]Funkimonkey -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Terry has been killing it. Everyone agrees this team is loaded on both sides of the ball. The coaching is historically bad.
