Buh-Bye! But Mariota?

Good for Matt, a play action QB in a play action friendly offense. Big, very good O line, an actual running back.. Yes, that's a good get..

Arthur Blank needs to sell this team to somebody that knows how to run it. The dumpster fire continues..

100% of draft capital needs to be spent on OL and DL

THEY ARE GOING TO FIND OUT RYAN IS NOT THE REASON THEIR LOOSEING.

THEY ARE GOING TO FIND OUT RYAN IS NOT THE REASON THEIR LOOSEING.

I am a VERY casual Falcons fan but I think this is absolutely the truth. The organization is and has been a dumpster fire more than it has not....and that is hard to overcome, especially when no one really cares if it is overcome or not.....the seats are sold, the TV deal is inked, the state guarantees a profit and will build you a new house when you decide that's your problem. Why would anyone mess with a deal like that just to spend more money to win more????
