Optimist take: Samuel/Byrd should be back and Rivera can’t not play Moore after that tuddy so our WR corps will at least be shaken up and dudes won’t be able to just go out there and dog it. Cam threw it well and our RBs are averaging over 5 ypc collectively. Just got to find our balance. For some reason I’m not worried about the defense. Think they’ve earned a mulligan.
The back shoulder throw from the end zone that funch dropped and the seam throw Thomas dropped were CAMVP throws. He’s humming it pretty nicely.

I am ready to start the Funchess to TE experiment. He’s not a true #1 WR but he could be a good pass catching TE. Only Moore has #1 WR potential.
I agree with that, I only noticed 2-3 bad Cam throws, and many more excellent throws. We need to give CJ more carries, and stop trying to force it with McCaffree - he's obviously a better receiver than back, in our scheme with our O-Line, so let him loose.
For the first 3 quarters, CMC was open every single time Cam dropped back. I wish we would have made them adjust to stop those easy check downs and open up the middle of the field.
the good news is that donte jackson looks legit
isaiah oliver was inactive again for the falcons
So if Funchess can't catch the ball when he's open and it's a good throw as a WR why would he be better able to catch it as a TE ? I think he just had a bad game.
Huh? Dude averaged close to 5 ypc and was trucking people all over the place when running up the middle.
He had a 3rd down PI, juked out of his shoes which led to a 30 yard run, and gave up a 12 yard TD all on the same drive...
He looks serviceable I guess but other than the INT which Horton hit Ryan on he wasn't very good, IMO
