You can't judge a QB that has no-name WR's, and a weak offensive line that can't protect for at least 3 seconds every pass play. Remember, he wasn't supposed to play this year and he was the 3rd string before the departure of Garrard.

Gabbert was better than Byron Leftwich by all means when he first started.

Draft Justin Blackmon. He's likely going to be there at #4 or 5 when Jacksonville picks. He's one of the best college WR's I've ever seen. If he can't help Gabbert look good then it'll be time to look around for a new QB.

A least you only blew a 3rd round pick on him. We blew a top-10 pick.

Oh yeah a side note, Mike Thomas who is our #1 WR was not even mentioned at all this game, but he's out with a concussion from last week. That's how bad our WR's are never involved this year.

They need to bench Matt Ryan..... the game is won! (I don't want to lose )

I see Julio Jones play and I'm reminded of Dez. Tough fast receiver with good hands that drives hard for every single yard and gets hurt because of it. Dez probably would've been a high draft pick also if not for his "controversial" relationship with Deion Sanders.

Yeah we need a true #1 WR right now. That's my main concern It's been like that since 2006-2007. By all means, if Gabbert doesn't drastically improve next season. Then we do need change again at QB.

Then again, the way the Jags been playing defense against the run the past 3 weeks. I think Mel Tucker might have to worry even more.

[ChadFL]

Gabbert has 1 completion more than fumble lost for the game. He's putting up Tebow-like passing numbers.

[MaCruz]

I called it first earlier today. No one in our secondary besides Mathis who is on IR can't cover Roddy White. That's 2 TD's tonight. We need someone like him on our team

Still not sure where your thumping of Tampa Bay came from, cross-Florida rivalry momentum or something? Sadly for you, we have 3 receivers that would all start on your team, not to mention a great regular season QB playing possibly his best football of his career.

Atlanta still gave up far too much for Jones. He's good but not worth giving up two 1st-round, a 2nd-round and two 4th-round picks.

Thumping came from all ends. TD from MJD 4 times, a TD from Special Teams, and then a TD on Defense. We also forced 7 turnovers. I was shocked that happened as Tampa was leading 14-0.

I think I'll take any WR core out there, even Denver's WR's.

Still not as bad as our trades for Joey Galloway and Roy Williams, especially when you consider how good street free agent Laurent Robinson has been for us this year.

It's one thing to turn off a game....... but I had to close my window that had the stat-tracker because it's getting so bad!

Awww, is somebody getting thumped in fantasy? One guy in our league lost I believe 170-88 last week, I had no idea you could get beat that badly. I won 115-108 so I'm up 7 points and favoured by 19 this week so I should easily win this 2 week consolation round.

Dang they've scored 51 points combined(Matty Ice and Roddy White) already. Glad I'm not going up against that, especially since I really only have 1 RB. I did sustain lots of RB injuries and recently lost Greg Jennings. Finally ready for a paid league so going to join one next year, just not the one at work. Don't like those people enough to play with them. Hoping the Cowboys play well for 60 minutes against Tampa Bay.

Hoping Felix Jones finally lives up to his potential since I put him in the lineup this week. Tampa's defense is pretty bad so I'm hoping for 100 and a TD.

We simply don't score on the ground, I believe as a team we've rushed for 4 TDs this year and thrown for 27. That's why Romo's such a fantasy stud, once we get in close he finishes the deal with a short TD pass. Jones will probably have about 130-150 total yards, assuming he doesn't hurt himself.

Cant believe you guys let Scarface Sam Hurd go. He played football as his part time job.

Yeah that's me who started them and got 165 last week. I knew Roddy and Matt would get on the same page down the stretch. Julio is there to get more cover off Roddy so he can continue to dominate. Pretty sure I'll be going to the championship game. I'm already up over 100 points with 7 players (including the Gronkmonster!!!) to go.

See you soon Digglers.........

On a sidenot Wolvie: Dallas HAS to roll TB this week. They have way more talent and TB's coach is probably looking for his next landing spot with the recent culling of coaches he barely survived.
