The Falcons won’t fire Jeff Ulbrich per Adam Schefter, love it or hate it.

The Falcons will not take any action against their defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich. They are continuing to review their protocols to make sure something like this doesn’t happen again.

NBC Sports - NFL sent Shedeur Sanders’s phone number directly to Jeff Ulbrich

NBC Sports' ProFootballTalk is reporting that the NFL sent a non-confidentially marked email to the Falcons and Jeff Ulbrich listing Shedeur Sanders new phone number. It was sent to all teams and their head coaches, general managers, player personnel directors, and club IT directors.

Contrary to everything the NFL has said and ESPN has said.

That said, good on him.

Kittle is the Lamar Jackson of TE's. He puts up great regular season numbers, but plays like trash in the postseason. Let us not forget Kittle's 2 Super Bowl numbers, where he was virtually invisible.

2019 - 4 receptions, 36 yards
2023 - 2 receptions, 4 yards

Overall postseason numbers - 3 receptions per game, 38 yards per game, 2 TD's in 12 games

do you watch a lot of Niner games? the stats you are citing look unremarkable for sure but he is a lot more than a receiving TE, he is an elite blocker, always has been, and also the heart and soul of the team.
those stats you are citing - he was targeted 7 times in the first SB and 3 the second.

not to mention individual numbers dip when the offense is loaded, your RB is McCaffrey, WR are Deebo, Aiyuk, Jennings. Kittle is a safety blanket for the offense and doesn't (hasn't ever) demand the ball be thrown to him.

I will be the first to call for Kittle to be more involved with the offense, not clear if its the play calling or the QB making a different read. that first SB run, he had a fantastic regular season, some monster games but for some reason Jimmy stopped looking his way, didn't even look like the defenses, looked like Jimmy was gun shy.
Post-Jimmy era there are stretches even now that for some reason Brock doesn't look his way and its frustrating.

Ok I have to ask at this point why do the Steelers even want Aaron Rodgers. I can see him as a 2 year bridge QB, but do you really want the rookie you are going to draft in next years class to be mentored by him? The drama this guy puts everyone through for sheer mediocrity or even less now is ungodly. This is not Rodgers of 12 years ago, or even 3 years ago where he was lights out. Honestly just put a game manager out there and run the ball.

Steelers usually have a top 20 O line and they worked to boost the defense, plus took a RB in 3rd round. If things come to fruition you have like 8 QB coming out next year that are expected to be good in NFL.

But no we hear Rodgers had a good meeting with Steelers owner and a great workout with receivers ...BUT he has not made a decision yet, so now your playing the waiting game, while waiting for the corpse of Rodgers, and his stupid ego to make a decision.

[BizCat]

Pittsburgh is stupid for even considering him.

Now I have seen it all LOL this is the most hilarious thing I have seen in the past week.


You cannot make this stuff up if you tried...

A crestfallen Shedeur Sanders enthusiast is suing the NFL for $100 million over the much-hyped quarterback’s disappointing fifth-round draft pick, claiming he suffered “emotional distress and trauma… as a fan and consumer” because the 23-year-old phenom wasn’t selected earlier.

“It was immediate frustration,” the fan, who filed the federal lawsuit as “John Doe,” told The Independent, on the condition his real name not be published. “This guy was projected to be the first or second pick, no later than the top five, and to watch mediocre players be chosen before him… it was frustrating.”

Doe, 55, described draft day as “one of the biggest days” of a player’s life.

“And to have all the NFL owners collude and not draft him, it was mentally frustrating and debilitating,” Doe, who said he has no personal connection to Sanders, went on. “For them to believe that they can just do this and there’s no recourse, it has to stop.”

Yep, all over allegations too. Guess that’s all it takes to ruin one’s career. Doesn’t seem right but this is how it works now.

It’s crazy. Of course, the lawsuit filer isn’t the only one claiming racism. Plenty of others are too. The usual. Need I remind them that the #1 pick was a young black kid. The difference is that Cam Ward is an actual good player with good character and no circus surrounding him. Oh….

So you are saying allegations should not change perception of someone, unless there is an investigation? Because that happens at every draft. Seems allegations had something to do with this draft also.

I like Lamb, Pickens, Tolbert and Fergilicious. Throw in Javonte Williams, Miles Sanders and 2 draft picks and our offense should be better this year as long as Dak can stay healthy.

I could see him right back in Buffalo to be honest. He was a complete non factor last season though, not sure if it was team induced or himself, I try and avoid watching any Jags game....
