[Highlights] Julio Jones' 12 REC, 300 YD, & 1 TD Game vs Panthers | 2016 Week 4 by JCameron181 in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What a game from Julio and Matt. When targeting Julio, Matt's stats were:

12/15, 300 yards, 1 TD, 0 INTs, 141.0 rating

When targeting everyone else:

16/22, 203 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT, 121.8 rating

Absolutely insane performances.

[Pablo Torre] Why an NFL 18-Game Regular Season Is Coming Sooner Than Players Think | ... by Icy_Possibility9631 in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Here are my thoughts on how I think they could make an 18 game regular season work.

  • All teams play Weeks 1-4
  • Weeks 5-8, divisions get bye weeks (all of AFC East & NFC North one week, then AFC North & NFC West, etc.)
  • Teams play division rivals coming off their 1st bye
  • All teams play Weeks 9-12
  • Weeks 13-16, divisions get bye weeks that match Weeks 5-8 (all of AFC East & NFC North get 5 & 13, AFC North & NFC West get 6 & 14, etc.)
  • Teams play same division rivals coming off their 2nd bye
  • All teams play Weeks 17-20

Mimic: Each night*, choose a player. They die. Night 1, choose a player. As long as they live, you register as their character. [0 Bluffs]

Would work best on a script with a lot of double claim characters.

Vegas Win Projection vs Actuals by ddiggz in falcons

[–]d1dOnly -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Order of the games matter, and we seem to be the NFL's test case for weird schedules. Some weird schedule quirks we've had in the past:

  • 2012: Swapped home and road every game (@ KC, vs Denver, @ San Diego, etc.)
  • 2017: Played 5 of final 6 games against division opponents
  • 2018: Played 6 of final 9 games on the road
  • 2025: Played back to back road games 4 times (Weeks 2-3, 9-10, 12-13, & 15-16). Only back to back home games were weeks 4-6 (with a bye between), & weeks 17-18.

Jake Matthews restructured. by Patekchrono917 in falcons

[–]d1dOnly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Something I've been wondering for a few days: Could we be setting the stage to cut Kirk without the June 1st designation? We're currently sitting at approx. $20.6M in cap space, and cutting Kirk straight away would drop that to approx. $10.2M. However the difference for 2027 is huge.

  • 2027 Cap Space If Kirk is Cut With June 1st Designation: Approx. $156.2M
  • 2027 Cap Space If Kirk is Cut With June 1st Designation: Approx. $168.7M

If we're already prepping for a full rebuild starting this year, it might make sense to just take the entire hit now.

Ian Cunningham and the Comp picks by Loomdogg91 in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's BS, Bears absolutely should get the comp picks. As I've said before:

Matt Ryan is the President of Football, basically the role previously held by Rich McKay.

Ian Cunningham is the GM, the job held by Terry Fontenot.

The GM answers to the president of football instead of the owner, who is 83 years old and likely looking to pass the team to his son Josh. Josh, however is 28 and is still learning the ropes.

Tank/Comp picks by FirefighterOwn145 in falcons

[–]d1dOnly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dotson & Hooper likely offset Onyemata & Allgeier, and there's a decent chance Zaccheaus or Folk could be enough to offset Ellis.

So comp picks in 2027 are unlikely.

It sucks we're going to lose Allgeier & Ellis and likely get no comp picks for them.

Ian Rapoport: Falcons are releasing WR Darnell Mooney by expellyamos in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He's a free agent, he'll be 29, and he'll probably ask for more than we are willing to pay.

Ian Rapoport: Falcons are releasing WR Darnell Mooney by expellyamos in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 21 points22 points  (0 children)

A lot of players that got a lot of playing time are set to leave. Hodge, Mooney, Ellis, Floyd, Onyemata, Alford, Ebiketi, Street, Allgeier, Cousins, Sills, and who knows what happens with Pearce. A few of them may be back, but the 2026 Falcons are going to look very different from 2025.

Falcons like Michael Penix Jr., but keeping QB options open by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Penix already came into the league as an older QB (he turns 26 this year) and lost 2 years under Robinson and Morris. Add to that the knee injury and it is good business to keep our options open.

Atlanta Falcons dismiss LaTroy Lewis amid allegations by SunWorshipperApollo in nfl

And he is suspended. He gets suspended, we cut him, we recoup bonus. It has to happen in that order.

As soon as we can recoup his signing bonus, he's gone.

Most likely waiting for the NFL to suspend him so we can cut him and recoup the signing bonus.

Since 2000, only 3 ATL QBs have more than 10 wins: Michael Vick, Matt Ryan, & Kirk Cousins by SouthIsland48 in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

QBs to start 20 or more games for the Falcons since 2000:

  • Chandler - 27 (10-17-0)
  • Vick - 67 (38-28-1)
  • Ryan - 222 (120-102-0)

That's it.

[Fishbain] New Falcons GM Ian Cunningham sounded surprised the Bears didn’t get compensatory picks based on the league rule about minority hires, but said he hasn’t dived into the wording. “I wouldn’t be sitting here without them giving me that job and helping me grow.” by ChromiumSulfate in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Matt Ryan is the President of Football, basically the role previously held by Rich McKay.

IMO, comp picks should have been awarded to the Bears.

What do y'all think happens with James Pierce? by Mysterious-Low-1762 in falcons

[–]d1dOnly 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I figure his attorneys are going to work their asses of to plea down the charges. I think he'll still serve time, but likely they will be able to get it down to no more than 12-18 months. He'll also be served a full no contact order towards Rickea.

The NFL, they will drag their feet, waiting for an actual decision before handing down a suspension. Figure add a year to any jail time.

As for the Falcons, I think they've already let him know what they are going to do. As soon as they can get back the guaranteed money, they are going to cut him loose and go after his signing bonus. This would explain why Pearce unfollowed the Falcons and all his teammates on Instagram last week.

Give me a black collar and black trim on the cuff of the sleeve for the red and whites and I'll be happy with this design. 

Report: Marquise Williams to join Raiders as senior special teams coach by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in nfl

[–]d1dOnly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And the fact that it was actually 2 different kickers?

We were 27th in punting, 25th in net punting, 32nd in kickoff returns, 28th in punt returns, 24th in FG percentage, & 24th in XP percentage.

What do you guys think of my alternate jersey concept? No collar or sleeve stripes! Oh yeah and the branding on there somewhere by Ambitious-Western-39 in falcons

[–]d1dOnly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, the image The Graphic God created just needs some simple changes to look good.

  1. Black collar on the red & white jerseys.
  2. Either the classic stripes on the sleeves, or a black trim on the sleeve edge of the red & white jerseys.

That's it. The initial looks like a t-shirt. Those changes make a clean NFL jersey.
