atL Coaches blew the game. This modern pass friendly NFL has gotten people to forget fundamentals of the game. Defense...ball control..clock control...running the ball.


I would add these terrible decisions by ATL coaching staff: blowing 2 timeouts, one in early 3rd quarter for a meaningless play. Then challenging the Edelman catch was insane. Even though it seemed unlikely of a catch, the 1st replay CLEARLY showed it never hit the ground. I'm not sure if that was the assistant buzzing down or Quinn's decision, but it was a complete waste of a challenge and that TO would have helped in the last ATL possession.
