I would like to see this play

In the Falcons game, I would love to see a handoff to Mike Rob, and have him throw a pass down field to wilson :thirishdrinkers:

SHHHHH! Don't give it away!

I've been waiting for a Mike Rob toss since the Rice/Tate passes.


I'd rather see a Golden Tate pass, all he does is throw touchdowns.

This is true, I wish you could add: "and get consistent separation" :34853_doh:

But I guess you could add this: "and catch game winning interceptions" :sarcasm_off:

No really, all I want to hear is how Tate caught the winning touchdown in Sundays game and I'll be happy.
:th2thumbs:

But can He catch?? :16:

A couple examples of Russell catching passes.

In the SF game at CLink this year when Rice threw the almost intercepted ball - if he had looked for RW he would have had him for a likely TD on this type of play. I think I recall RW mentioning it and that he was giving Rice some good natured jabs about missing him.

I know mike rob was a QB, and im sure he would be brilliant in thse plays if he wasnt at FB. Its really hard to hand the ball off and give mike rob any room to throw.

The only way i could see them doing it is in the shotgun with mikerob lined up on the side. A quick pitch and an oline slide might give him enough time.

We havent seen a gadget play in a few weeks, it's about time for one again. Atl is a good environment for it

Inspector Gadget is at work.

i too dont understand why we hvent utilized Mrobs skillset at QB. he was a college QB for f sakes. we all know he and Deon Butler hooked up a few times at Penn St.??? it seems a no brainer to me.

I'd like to see Tate throw one deep to Rice. Either a catch by Rice or out of the endzone.

The coaches don't want a qb controversy?

I expect we will see some chicanery.

Haha. Make me lol pretty hard.

Ah, it's a great time to be a Hawks fan... :179422:

Expect to see some type of trickery this week.

Atlanta is a team that thrives off of big plays on offense, so we have to be able to put up points this week and this would be a quick way to do it.

I think they have a trick play in the plan every week, but they only pull it out if they see the correct situation for it.

For example, like the fake punt against the Bills. When the coverage they prepared for came out, they ran the play regardless of the blowout.

I think they prepare a trick play or two every week based on the film they watch, and then it only happens if they see the look they want. If they don't see the look they want, they don't run it.

Which is how it should be.

I do agree the turf in Atlanta is a prime place to try something though.

Jon Ryan to Longwell down the seam on a fake fieldgoal ala Efren herrera back in the day against these same falcons on MNF.
