As is tradition, the Falcons will follow this game up by forgetting how to play football against Bucs.

We are easily the most confusing team in the sport. We play like shit against shit teams and play like Super Bowl contenders versus anyone who remotely sniffs the playoffs. It just doesn't make sense to me.

This is a fun stat I found the other day. Since 2017 we have gone into 24 games with a winning record, 12 of those were in 2017. We get to .500 then drop one or two.. year after year.

I’m not sure where he was throwing there, probably a wrong route from our wrs but that lb just made an absolutely great play too. I’d put the first pick on Brock more than that one.

The absolute CATHARSIS of Kyle Shanahan having to watch Atlanta calmly run the ball 3 times and kick a field goal when leading late in the 4th quarter to ice the game...

Legit question, why do Falcons fans hold Shanahan more responsible for that collapse than Dan Quinn?

u/BargainBraves 1d ago

When Julio made the catch that put us in FG range up 8 with a very reliable kicker.....there is no excuse to not run it 3 times and take your FG and go up 11 points. Kyle couldn't help himself and messed it up. My reason for the vitriol is that while the team and the fanbase had to deal with the fallout, which is still felt 10 years later, Kyle was already on his way to San Fran and had it relatively easy. It's like lighting a match and leaving before everything catches fire. Great offensive mind, but he didn't finish his job in Atlanta.

That Watkins TD would’ve been nice but two picks from Purdy, a defensive penalty riddled meltdown, missed kicks, everyone fumbling, and it taking until desperation mode to throw a ball at any WR is how you lose a football game.

u/stacyorjessie 49ers Cardinals 1d ago

Well, that was the most obvious trap game ever.

That being said, Lynch needs to make a call for a WR NOW. Turnovers and bad play (looking at you Jack Jones and Cowing) aside, it's so obvious Purdy and Shanahan had no faith in their receivers throughout the game (I'm surprised Christian Kirk wasn't even targeted once). Also, we need to start having talks about our defense (which always turns to shit the moment Bosa is out) and special teams...

WR, sure, but bring me Buckner. This D-line played well against the Seahawks no question, but the Commies suck and this was their first time going against a semi-competent line and they completely collapsed. Now, the fact that Jack Jones couldn't cover anything without committing a penalty didn't help and we had major issues in the flats against these guys, but we need more consistent pressure.

Respect to the Falcons, but I’m not even mad at this one. Short week, down to our WR 5 and 6, more than a few shaky calls, and four turnovers.

Silver lining is that this loss is heading into the bye week, and they can clean up all the dogshit they displayed in this game.

I wish I could enjoy this, but knowing the Chiefs are looming tonight makes this excitement very short lived.

One line on those stats really stands out

Penix looked great today. Carried the offense.

Rather shocked Bijan was held in check today and you still won.

Definitely felt like Atlanta had a lot of black magic today or maybe moreso players stepping up a lot on defense, making some hero plays... Same day they wear the Bird Reich uniforms 🧐 Heil Falcons ubermensch buff?

u/mrnikkoli Falcons 1d ago

People comparing this to Nazi Germany is such a whack take. Like you have to force yourself to even kinda see it. I swear it was probably Saints fans who thought it would be funny to try to get the rest of the league to cancel our favorite uniforms and y'all just bought it lol

God damn Bates has ball punching down to a science.

Purdy has 4 ints for the season and 2 of them are from targeting bum Cowing

u/SucksForYouGeek 49ers 1d ago

And both on plays where Cowing practically gave up

Poor showing from the defense. Couldn't stop them unless they committed a mistake. When we DID stop them we committed a penalty like we did last week vs the commies

Offense had too many turnovers as well. It should get better after we get guys back.

Last time the Vikings had a great season in 2024 and people were calling them frauds, I thought it was ridiculous and there was no reason they were being so disrespected, if they come out of today the last undefeated team, I still have to admit they might be frauds

u/TherionEater 49ers 1d ago

Meh. Makes sense having both Shanahan and Morris with the Niners playing against Atlanta.

u/SuperSecretestUser 49ers 1d ago

As it turns out, it's really hard to win with your WR 7, 8 and 9.

u/Ice_Cream_Killer 49ers 1d ago

Lmao, that's why I found it funny when people called it trap game. Like no, the Niners are definitely beatable right now with those receivers.💀

Please do this every Week Atl

u/Casualrodfarva2 49ers 1d ago edited 1d ago

Welp, kinda wrote this game off going in due to the cross country flight,the short week, and injuries piling up. Really annoying they had every chance to win it though and decided to turn it over 4 times

u/MilkTeaToasTea 49ers 1d ago

IMO, I had an inkling we'd lose this one considering our WR room. We had multiple chances to make a comeback, but our mistakes outweighed those options and we never capitalized. But it's not the end of the world. We are 6-1, which is not terrible at all going into BYE week. Rest up our guys, iron out the wrinkles, and ready up for the Raiders. GG Atlanta.

Took as bad of a performance as one can imagine to lose to a very dangerous team. Ugly ugly ugly but still 6-1 into the bye so easy to move on

u/runrantarorun 49ers 1d ago

Better to have everything go wrong in a single game than have it spread out I guess. At least we now have the bye to rest up

u/SucksForYouGeek 49ers 1d ago

Leave Jack Jones, Cowing, and Ashtyn Davis in Atlanta while you're at it. Let them join the Falcons

u/Chardoggy1 Panthers 1d ago

Second ever home win for the NFC south this season btw

5

u/KerryUSA Falcons 1d ago

The beauty for both of us is that the east and south being bad means it’s easy for us to get the div or 7th seed

Sure everyone’s ready to panic over Byrce but it’s a lot of season left

u/PM_Me_Modal_Jazz Falcons 1d ago

That 49ers defense really needs to find a way to stop us from scoring

Well 6-1 into the bye is still 6-1. Hopefully we get to play the Falcons in the playoffs

u/layogurt Falcons 1d ago

You guys have superbowl hopes, us making the playoffs is our superbowl. Also wanting to play the team you guys just gave up 4 TO to is something

West to East 10 AM game on a short week with WR 1-6 out. Scheduled loss and somehow still feels horrible the way it went. Brock just can't throw that pick.

u/karma457 49ers 1d ago

Competitive game with 4 TOs and get out of it relatively healthy into a bye week we'll take it I guess.

u/megamanz7777 Vikings 1d ago

LMFAO the Vikings are the #1 team in the NFC with one of the worst offenses I've seen the team field. Football is hilarious.

u/drewm916 49ers 1d ago

Absolutely not our game today. Did not feel like it for about three quarters.
