Shame of the Game - at Atlanta

[Brian Fein]

Fasano sucked but he got hit hard.  Jake Long sucked, but he was facing one of the best DE's in the league.

Although it doesn't matter, my Shame goes to OC Dan Henning.  I'm sick of screen passes, and throwing to WR's BEHIND the line of scrimmage.  What the hell?  Are these guys check downs or are these designed plays?

If you don't open up the mid-range and deep routes, they're going to flood the line and stop you EVERY PLAY.  If you don't think this is why the offense couldn't move, I challenge you. 

Sure Fasano fumbled twice, but so effin what?  Jason Elam missed 2 FG's and an XP.  If we're gonna play woulda-coulda, the Dolphins STILL would have lost the game even if they scored 2 TD's instead of fumbles.  And that's a HUGE "if"...

The offense played like shit.  The Wildcat is ineffective.  That's on the OC.  They need to game-plan better and stop relying on gimmicks and gadgets for the home run.

And - oh yeah - leave Pat White holding the clipboard from now on.  Thanks.

Thats the Gospel right there.   

I feel better after a day of crying in my beer. Next week will be better.

So pennington's fumble was due to ronnie's shit blocking.  get him the fuck out of the game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftRAfGhhsLg&feature=related

Fumbles aren't the same for every position.  QBs have to touch the ball on every play and are forced to hold the ball with one hand to deliver the ball.  If a blocker misses his assignment, the QB may have no way of knowing and there's no realistic chance of them holding on to the ball.

Look at Tepop's video.  The Pennington fumble is really all Robbie Brown's doing. 

Fasano's fumbles are unacceptable, especially considering he fumbled every time he touched the ball.

[Brian Fein]

The first fumble by Fasano, he got popped really hard.  To me, its understandable to let go of the ball when you get hit that badly...

And besides, Tepop has a man-crush on Ronnie and is just trying to prove a point.

I'll agree, that was a shit block by Ronnie, but Penny had almost a full 4 seconds to throw that ball.  He should have gotten rid of it before then.
