Falcons: Matt Ryan is not going to make it to the mid-point if they do not correct the o-line

About the o-line, speciafically Sam Baker. I would make him go to a back doctor, anything to IR his ass, his and Garrett Reynolds have been castastroghphic failures. Matty is going to get killed if he has that line block for him any more. We got spoiled for the last 3 years we had a decent not great o-line that could get you points in a straight forward football or going to to the no huddle. Well its getting sad the only way we can score is a interception then going to no huddle to get the points. Were going thru the same problem the Eagles are, put all of our money in specialtly players instead of paying and getting good ones that can hold the house up. It makes me sick.. If we won the game yesterday, which we should have would have been Luck, and Green Bay is going to slaughter us. TD better do something NOW.

Clay Matthews may or may not tape a picture of Sam Baker to the back of his girlfriend's head. I'll lose all faith in MM if he doesn't have Kelly or Palmer helping Baker out the whole game.

According to the ticker at the top of the Forum, Smith told the O-line he may shuffle them this week and is letting them compete in practice for starting positions. I'm thankful he's addressing the issue; I know that the coaches and FO know they need to do something different.

outside of one play i saw sam baker holding up damn well, it was the interior pressure that was killing us. mcclure and reynolds were getting man handled, inside pressure affects the quarterback and running game way more than edge pressure. interior pressure doesn't allow the quarterback to step up into the pocket essentially leaving them open to the edge pressure. luckily for us we have quite a few guys that can play the interior, i think most of it was mis-communication which is fixable.

reynolds needs to step up or step out...

Reynolds needs to be replaced and I think he will either this week or soon...Svitek may replace Baker and we'll see how Baker responds to his benching...Either he comes back hungry or stays on the bench

Even if he gets hungry, I just don't think he has what it takes for this level of football.
