Hard to do anything when you have no wrs and your rbs keep fumbling.
The only critique I have is I think James is better than black. Black was getting completely stuff for nothing the whole begining of the game until he got lucky on the TD.
He should be pissed at morris for not blitzing more. Special teams also sucks...

He was getting stuffed because that London guy kept beating his man. Once they blocked him up Kaelan was fine.

No he wasn't mcaffrey was doing absolutely fine. Black drops his head and doesn't even look when he hits the hole...

I'm more concerned with the defense than I am the offense.
The secondary looks average, and we seem to struggle with getting any pressure on the QB unless we decide to send a blitz

There was no hole to hit on a couple of those plays. D lineman just blew past.

I'm more concerned with the offense, turnovers alone were the issue. Defense played the entire 2nd and 3rd quarters due to the offense turning the ball over. ST also missed extra point.
29 - 20 with all of those turnovers tells us exactly what the issue was today.

Barring more injuries this was always going to be the case this season, regardless of this game.
They've been better than expected early though. See how they respond.

+1 D alone was not the only reason we lost. Offense couldn't sustain drives and kept making mistakes.

Where the F was Kirk today? Strains his calf like 8 months ago in training camp, finally gets back and is invisible? He can just refund the Niners money and leave

They played the entire 2nd and 3rd quarters because they couldn't get stops.

Falcons didn't get a first down on their final 4 drives of the game. Defense did enough. Offense turned the ball over on 5 of their final 6 drives (2 fumbles, 2 ints, and a turnover on downs).

Because they were actively trying to run out the clock. If the D gets some stops in the 2nd and 3rd quarter they turnovers would've been less impactful.
Offense isn't going to turn it over 4 times a game. Need the defense to not allow 90 yard drives when there is a turnover however.

Falcons final 4 drives spanned less than 5 minutes of game time, so they didn't do a great job of running out the clock.
