Next week against the Seahawks
Falcons need to improve on 3rd down conversions, they went 3 -11 in that game
Matt needs a better pocket to pass from, in the first half Matt had a force fumble (Wagner)
and the reefers blew about 3 roughing the passer calls (1 on Wagner, 2 Bennett)
Falcons need to establish the run next week this will be crucial, week 6 they only attempted
17 run plays (Freeman 12 atts, Coleman 4 atts) for a total gain of 50 yrds (No tds)
Redzone offense HAS to improve, the only redzone play Falcons scored on was a 10 yrd pass
to Sanu, The other two scoring plays ( 36 yrd TD to Julio, and a 46 yrd TD to Toliolo) were mainly
dude to blown coverages (Mainly loudmouth Sherman's fault)
Falcons defense will need to sack Russell they only had 1 sack (Trufant)
And this was coming off a season high 6 sacks against Denver the previous week
(Both Freeney and Deion Jone missed a crucial sack on 3rd and 2 late in the 4th Q week 6)
Miscellaneous Notes
Taylor Gabriel was knocked out of the week 6 game with concussion, Look for him to have
an explosive game next week.
With Earl Thomas being out, look for the Falcons to take the top off the Legion Of Buffoons defense
Leading up to the blown PI call, Matt forced feed the ball to Sanu too much, 1st and 10
Matt should've hit Hardy in stride for a a solid 5-8 yrd gain, 3rd and 10 Matt should've have ran
for about a 8 yrd gain (The refs missed a possible PI call, McCray hit Sanu late)
Bottom Line
Next weeks game will be a chippy emotional tight called game. I'm more than
sure they'll be alot of holding and pass interfernce calls next week. Seattle will
be coming into Da Dome loose playing with house money and the Falcons
will be looking to get revenge from week 6.
