That’s Irving’s 3rd special team stop.

It cant be a horsecollar in the pocket I agree with Gruden this is confusing a horsecollar is a horsecolla rto me
DEFENSE GET A TURNOVER LETS GO NOW !
ughhhh!!!…our defense has to step up…
horsecoller for sure!
wow no run plays
apparently horsecollar is ok in the pocket?
ugh c’mon d
darn hotel wifi
Brookings = Cut… Bannan = Cut
No pressure…
within 5 yds that is allowed
Douglas can’t get off the line, and Champ gets a hold for it.
tony carter is getting abused!
This is crap
somebody on defense better step up
bannan isnt getting cut! u kidden?
brooking for sure! carter yes..i would take drayton over him
Our run defense looks pretty stout the last two games.
Bannan is doing his job stopping the run Tony Carter is killing us
My game prediction had ATL scoring 27, so if we can hold them and score 24 answered points it’s a win win for me.
chris harris hurt is costing us!
*unanswered
yepp
this game is over!! what a sloppy showing..horrible
hope we dont get beat 50-7
where is the dannnnnnnng running game? horrible play calls!!!
can you say exposed on D!!
Our run game is doing well…..7.7 per rush for McGahee 11 for 77 yards.
he was all over him wth
great coaching!!!
boot leg would have been nice there
ok we have maybe 4 prolly 3 drives left with no turnovers if we getone maybe 5 but we need to make em count
we need stops and i dont see it..our D is gassed!
this is a beat down!
pick six boys
almost 22
we needed that pick 6
holding in the endzone no call?
wasted timeout
2 plays back to back where the OLine was holding and no calls….smh….
we still need better 4th cb, better DT’s and one more pass rusher! and on O a better slot, running back, and Te’s
Mays, Moore,
