Did you see how sf struggled against a bad washington team? This is the NFL no easy games.
I’m not saying it was easy ... I’ve been beating the drum that the whiners are overrated because the teams they played have been poopy ... I don’t wanna be a hypocrite ;)
 
We played a ton of man coverage on 3rd down today with Ramsey. Almost every 3rd down he was manned up on Julio. Atlanta went 3-12 on 3rd down. Wade actually played man coverage with confidence today. And look what that did to our pass rush.

Also, quick thought on the long pass Julio caught on Ramsey - the camera did a great job showing it, but Ramsey actually wasn't going full speed because he was anticipating the come back route. Julio kept running the streak and he tried to re-accelerate to catch up and was just late. But IF, he would've played that more disciplined and just played his man, it would've been blanket coverage.

My point is our new star CB just went up against the most talented WR on earth, and shut him down on everything except one throw. And the big throw they completed was just because of a bad decision, not because he "got beat" physically.
 
Unfortunately couldn’t watch the game today, but I’d love to know, how was the OL overall? Was Edwards an upgrade?
That's not a "Like" it's a thumbs up. But yes, There was an improvement. Still have a ways to go.

I just wanna say that I feel SO vindicated.

Ramsey had the effect I said. DL got the extra time and the sacks, hits, hurries and strip sacks rolled in.

Edwards showed up and it was palpable how much better the OL play was. And for all their difficulties, that Atlanta DL isn't bad. That DL isn't the problem.

He kept going to Everett which I've been saying for at least a couple of games now, although he focused using him on the outside, but yeah... EXCELLENT game by Everett. Goff eventually found that touch with him.

I said McVay at some point got relaxed. He figured something out. It showed.

What a great win.
 
We are still in the hunt for the division, need sf and seattle to split and we beat both the 2nd time around. Both will stumble along the way and drop 1 or 2 games outside the division.
9ers looked like ass today and I think teams are committing to making Garopollo beat them and they got 3 fgs...against Washington...

Need to see how they play in London, but this team is an entirely different team that shit the bed against the 9ers...

This team had FIGHT, HEART and DETERMINATION!!!
 
Yeah, we still need to get that run blocking worked out and need to be much more efficient in the red zone, but yeah.

Was a heck of an improvement in a week's time.
