The Saints just showed how one dimensional the Falcons are. They dominated with their new (old, really) running approach for two weeks, provided ample game film for other defenses, and now will no longer be able to run like that again. Unless, or course, something truly bizarre happens - like Vick learning how to be a >50% passer.

Just for your info his QB rating was a 75.8% last year, which doesn't factor in that he had tons of rushing yards also. Hes never going to be the stereotypical "drop back and pass" QB...but who wants him to be? He can outrun just about anyone on the field if he is given a chance. Plus his recievers are total crap (aside from Cumpler). They aren't aggressive and they don't fight to get open or even run good routes.

I meant 50% completions, not QB rating. I am a big Falcon fan so I really want to see him and the Falcons succeed, but if he is too one dimensional then he will never advance "to the next level" ( I hate that I just used that cliche :pinch: ). When a team shuts down his legs, he very rarely can beat them with his arm.

That game almost seemed fixed :|

That's how I feel about it. I'm not normally one to have conspiracy theorys when my team looses (rather I'm usually the one that points out what we did wrong and why we deserved the loss) but it was just iffy all the way around.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
