Scott Bair (@Atlanta Falcons) joins Aaron to recap the Atlanta Falcons’ Week 9 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, discussing the team’s inconsistent passing game. Scott discusses how the team is very reliant on staying on schedule with early-down runs, and how despite their best efforts to get Kyle Pitts and Drake London involved in the offense, things aren’t connecting. They discuss Marcus Mariota’s passing and how much leeway he’s given to missing throws in critical situations, before discussing the Desmond Ridder “ruckus” and why there have been so many calls for him to play. Finally, Scott discusses the hurdles that teams have to come (and those covering those teams) in a short week like the Falcons face ahead of their Thursday night matchup vs. the Carolina Panthers.
