why would a horrible team draft a rb ??

and then have him split time with another back who he's clearly better than.  Smith will have plenty of time to ponder that after he gets fired.

The perplexing thing about the pick is the Falcons found gold in Tyler Allgeier in the 5th round last year and he rushed for over a thousand yards. And they have Cordarrell Paterson too who has been pretty good for the Falcons as well. Even with all 3 they barely see the field at the same time so it’s not like Smith is using them in some kid of multi headed innovative rushing attack with them on the field together. And when he did use Bijan and CP together yesterday he used Bijan as the blocker lol.

Atlanta does for sure, Arthur Smith maybe not so much.

I was about to reply something similar.  My customers in the Atlanta area rave about him being a good dude for the city.

I think this will all work out in Bijan’s favor long term. Every coach, GM, and owner knows what he can do. Let him split time in Atlanta because Atlanta ain’t winning shit regardless. In a year or two he can choose where he wants to play and be a featured back

Probably best for his future career that they NOT be giving him the ball. Not even Bijan can unfuck that chicken. 

Yep. If he keeps getting 7 carries a game, he'll still be fresh for his next team.

Nothing the Falcons have done since Art Smith took over has made sense, honestly.

They had an old Matt Ryan and needed to get a QB of the future.  They instead picked a TE #4 overall.  The only way you make that pick is if you have a crystal ball that can show you the future and ensure the kid is the next Gronk/Kelce.  Then they draft a WR #8 overall.  They stupidly make a noise like they want to give Deshaun the Rapist a huge contract.  This pisses Ryan off so he bails and you end up starting a garbage/end of his career Mariota.  Dude doesn't even last the season and you have to start the 3rd round kid.  Then, this year when you have no franchise QB and no edge rusher to speak of (the two most important positions on the field), you draft Bijan.  When you already have two solid RBs on the roster.  You then decide to push all your chips in on Ridder who has never looked anything other than ass.  You don't make him fight for the spot and you hardly play him in the preseason.

So how has all that worked out?  Ridder is almost leading the league in turnovers.  He's garbage.  You hardly get the ball to any of your three Top 10 picks and instead mainly get the ball to Jonnu Smith and the backup RB.  Bijan is used as a decoy more than he actually touches the ball.  You have the easiest schedule in the NFL and every week you lose to another bottom of the barrel team.  This means that even though you play in the worst division in football, you're going to miss the playoffs yet again.

Sad part is, the Falcons have a Top 10 defense and the playmakers on offense to be really good.  Just their QB is basically the worst in the league and their head coach is a fucking moron who has no idea how to call plays/run the team.  If they fire Smith, go get a QB, and draft a DE with their fourth Top 10 pick in a row they could make some noise next year.  Though Blank seems like a sleepy, "well his daddy is my billionaire buddy so we gotta give him a chance" idiot so I imagine this shit show gets extended for another year until it's well and truly fucked.

Jeeeze man, I’m already a Falcons fan you don’t have to pile on. 
 

 

Your assessment is accurate.

They also take Pitts over Chase and London over Wilson/Olave not only are they drafting dumb they can't identify talent. To be fair Zach Wilson is still in the league so Riddler isn't the worst

Yeah, I think Pitts and London are fine players and would look better with a better QB/play caller, but the Falcons passed up on those guys you mentioned and other all-world talents like Parsons, etc.  Just inexcusable if you're going to spend every game having your TE2 throw to your TE3 while your #4 overall pick blocks.  They could have had Jalen Carter this year instead of Bijan.  And for a team that can't pressure/sack the QB that would have been a pretty good pickup.  

Ridder is 8 points higher in QBR than Wilson.  He has a much better O-line.  He's got Bijan.  He's got two top 10 picks to throw the ball to.   He's thrown 3 more picks than Wilson and fumbled one more time.  And not that turning the ball over is ever something you want, but Ridder does it in the redzone more than anyone else.  There are about four games this season the Falcons lost that they should have won that directly are on Ridder being an idiot with the football.

Did they shut him down for the day after that run?

Art Smith will have masturbation material for weeks with Allegier getting a TD over Bijan

Bijan currently has 1332 yards from scrimmage rushing/receiving.  He sat out a game.  Still has a game to play. He'd have over 2k yards from scrimmage if he played in a competent offense.  He's done as well as he had being completely misused and running into stacked boxes every play because of course no one is afraid of the Falcon QBs.

Looked like a pretty good throw to me

Considering how awful most of Ridder's passes are and that Bijan usually has to make a 1-handed leaping grab to get them, that pass was perfection.

And it was nearly picked for a TD in the other direction.

lmaoooo, arthur smith heading to midfield to greet the saints HC:

”what the fuck do you say to me? what the fuck did you say? that is bullshit! yeah fucking classy! that’s bullshit!”

lolololol, fuck off, Art.

and shouts out to the former player (don’t know who he is) who was calling the game who told arthur smith to get out of his feelings, and that if he didn’t want the saints to score, “this is football- stop em.”

Blank needs to be packing up Smith's shit right this moment and shipping via UPS back to wherever the fuck that idiot came from.  

Eric Bieniemy and whichever QB falls to the Falcons at 8/9 in the Draft, Daniels or Penix.  Try and find an edge rusher somewhere.  They can make some noise next year.

Just keep this chinless fucking loser away from Bijan.  Our boy deserves much better.

Couple of things. Is it my imagination or has Bijans guns grown a few calibers/gouges?

Also, on his 71 yard TD reception it seemed like he was going a hair slower than usual. Maybe he knew he didn't have to kick in the afterburners to make it?

I mean he out ran a NFL DB with a good angle, I’m not sure what more you expect.  He’s not Tyreek Hill.  He definitely slowed down after that guy missed though.

Smith is an idiot. If Blank keeps him around, so is he.

Penix would wake up the franchise and have them in the playoffs pronto. They certainly have other needs, but QB is the biggest of them.

1a) dumbass regard of a HC

1b) dumpster fire of a QB room

1) New head coach with a clue

2) Draft Penix 

3) Pick up good DE

4) Win Super Bowl

Arthur getting fired is Good News for Bijan.

Hopefully atlanta hires a better new head coach that knows how to take advantage of BR's talent...

 

That is great. That is Sark's railroad concept. Bijan scored multiple times on that same play at Texas
