Why is Michael Jenkins regressing with an accurate qb? For years we could blame his transgressions on the inaccuracy of Michael Vick yet 5 seasons later he is still dropping passes and not making plays. Why does Marques Colston and Miles Austin, one a 7th round pick and one an undrafted free agent, both 6-4 and 210 like Jenkins look more like the first rounder and he the free agent?

Why are the things that coach Smith saying will be "corrected" are still chronic problems? Things such as interior run defense and cornerbacks who will not turn their heads to make a play on balls in flight and other problems are aways stated to be corrected but aren't. I have faith in him but "corrected" is becoming a cliche at this point.

Why wasn't a kicker signed to the practice squad to put the fear of being released in Jason Elam? Missing crucial kicks in close is not a this year phenomenon. As you recall, prior to the game winning kick against Chicago last year, Elam missed what amounted to be an extra point in field goal distance to allow the Bears the chance to go ahead. With Elam costing us arguably 2 victories, why risk the inevitable next bad miss to cost the team another game?

Why does Matt Ryan's arm seem weaker than last year? In the offseason Ryan professed to work on increasing his arm strength yet when he throws the deep out pattern his passes float rather than zip. When he threw the Hail-mary in the Saints game, he could not even get the ball to the endzone from 55 yards away. Could Matt have some arm problem that the team is not divulging?

Why was Chauncey Davis signed to a multimillion-dollar contract to be virtually invisible? Given the 20 million dollar contract extension for Jenkins and the 14 million dollar signing of Davis, is the heavy-hand check writing of Rich McKay again rearing its ugly head?

Why was Chris McAllister good enough for the Saints but not the Falcons? Why is Chris Houston still starting? If he is because he is one of the best we have, then again, why was McAllister not deemed good enough in comparison or for that matter an aged Ty Law? Are either worse options based upon observation?

I have one more:


Why do you wait until the team isn't playing well before you post?

Maybe because when the team is playing well he's happy and haas nothing bad to say. It doesn't make him any less of a fan or a negative person.

Let me take a shot at a few of these:

He and Roddy have digreesesed. Maybe because of the defenses we're playing in 2009 or perhaps because TG is getting a lot of their targets.

Because he is under a little more heat this year with less of a running game.

Chauncey is 5 tackles, 0.5 sacks and 1 QB pressure from equaling Busterson's 2009 production. With 167 fewer snaps.You're after the wrong guy.

1.Jenkins always sucked.He is a bust.

2.It will be corrected next season.Patience.

3.We will sign a kicker next week.Patience.

4.Matt Ryan arm is not weak.That HailMary Ryan took a big dropback, making the throw more difficult.

5.Rich McCay sucks.

6.CBs are all about system.If some CB don't fit your system, don't matter how good he played in the past.

Joined a month ago doesn't mean that's when I started reading the boards.

Thanks for playing. We have a nice home version of our game for you as a consolation prize. DirtyBird2 everyone, give him a hand!
