Recapping Falcons vs Steelers Week 1 (and it's no bueno muchacho)

[@ELI_ATL]

On the bright side, our defense didn’t allow a single touchdown!!

[@colefromatlanta]

right! that's one upside

[@CarltonWright-vv3yu]

80% of the fan base don't know the game of foot ball. The Organization knows that the decisions that are made are not Foot Ball Operations, but PR. The hiring GM & Head Coach was a PR move. To build a successful team, you have to build in the future by building in the trenches through the Draft. The Owner can be messy when involved in internal operations. I wish the fans would WISE UP an read the fine print on what Arthur Blanc and his colleague's are going.

[@Trainer_Ruffles]

I think most fans are mad because we were told that this would be a guaranteed win, not an easy win but a win netherless. Also losing to Arthur smith makes me wish this franchise never existed.

[@ATLfalcons808]

It sucked loosing game 1 to Arthur smith…. But it’s game 1 and I still have faith in this roster….. ATL fans rise up baby!!!!

[@colefromatlanta]

@@ATLfalcons808 same here! expectations were a bit too high for week 1, but we’ve got a long season ahead of us to make some changes!

[@zyix7317]

kirk looked like a statue, our o line could barely block well, only 2 of our o linemen were above a 60% grade, defense looked great tho, aj was rusty but other than that

[@colefromatlanta]

@@zyix7317 def got a lot of work to do, but there’s signs of a good team somewhere in there

[@jlm4455]

The first drive a Steeler DB dropped a Int that would've gone for 6. The signs were there early. The Pitts TD was directly because the Refs fucked up on offsides call. The ref told Watt post game they messed it up. Falcons O were lucky to score at all. You keep overrating them, I'm sorry mate just because you want them to be something doesn't mean they are. London was locked up in Porter's prison.

@@jlm4455 It’s not just “wanting them to be something” (although I admit my bias). A lot of analysts assumed the Falcons would be decent. Them performing how they did yesterday is a shock to more than just Falcons fans.

[@garrettfutch7338]

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Super disappointed but still hopeful

[@colefromatlanta]

@@garrettfutch7338 yessir

[@jadenbrown3106]

First game for everyone, I got hope still!

[@Trainer_Ruffles]

Maybe there was a different reason than planning for the future when they drafted penix.

[@colefromatlanta]

@@Trainer_Ruffles starting to seem like it. maybe they knew something we didn’t. but again, why did they pay Kirk so much??

[@ELI_ATL]

@@colefromatlantamaybe they thought he was the guy and when training camp rolled around started thinking they were wrong

[@Trainer_Ruffles]

​@@colefromatlantaI was justing hating ain't more to it

[@harrislaurent429]

Kirk looked washed asf

[@colefromatlanta]

he sure did

[@atlboy2002]

No longer hopeful. This franchise continues to disappoint and lose in the most embarrassing fashion. These birds are cooked.

[@colefromatlanta]

brother it’s week 1 lol at least give it to the bye week

[@atlboy2002]

@@colefromatlanta thank you for the positive words lol. Still pissed but will be here.
