DB grabbed the back arm to spin our WR to break the pass off. But a DB pushing off Pickens is OPI. **** refs.

How was he down by contact? It looks like the down by contact occurred before he caught the ball.

Part of the problem with the offense today has to be that Smith just can’t forget his entire playbook that the Falcons know. there’s some things he will do because it’s who he is and its going to be easier for a team he coached to know what hes going to do especially in the first game of the season. But there are some things that need to be a lot better. The line has been underwhelming for the run game. Has Muth been targeted just once?

Boswell set a Steelers record with 3 50+ FG’s in a game. I wonder what the NFL record is?

Right idea to go for it but bad execution.

Austin actually looks good on the punt return.

Even his other returns have been pretty good.

Because Killebrew took the rusher into the punter.

No, he didn’t, the rusher was always driving forward.

I hope the punter is OK because he;s good and also is an elite holder. but if we only punt 2-3 times Harvin at least holds well. if hes back whatever.

That’s what I thought but the ref saw it differently.

Wait, so a team is allowed to use a 6’7 TE in the red zone. That’s good to know.

Seriously, that was a really good drive by Justin Fields.

What do you expect? Is he a LT or a RT, is he playing, is he not playing, plus he’s hurt. Honestly I blame Tomlin just as much and Jones is Dotson 2.0.

These players not making the easy and quick play to get to side line cost about 8 seconds on this drive.

Don’t you need to actually go into the neutral zone to get an infraction? I guess not. These refs are horrible today.
