Unfortunately Quinn doesn't have his best CB shadow a WR all game. Alford played ok in the 2nd half. He has to step it up(I personally think he's improved) or he'll be a back up next season. That's why you'll see Collins in the game every now and then. The coaches are trying to get him ready just in case.
I know it's only one game but Roddy not having a single catch concerns me. -
Alford's gonna give up catches he's targeted almost every play cause teams aren't even throwing at Trufant anymore.

Yea & ODB only had 1 catch in the 2nd half. That's why I feel that he's improved from last year. He has to do better in the 1st half though.

Updated: Falcons RB Tevin Coleman fractured a rib and is expected to miss a couple of weeks, depending on his pain threshold, per sources.
Freeman time....he dropped a few passes yesterday but he also caught a few tough ones. Same thing happened on the run game. Some good and some bad runs. We just need him to hold the squad down for a few weeks. Dallas' front 7 shouldnt be slept on. Coach Kyle is going to have his work cut out for him.

They were talking about that on the radio up this way today. It's like the Giants stop throwing to ODB in the second half of the game. -

They also lined ODB up on Trufant's(our best cb) side of the field in the 2nd half. To be fair to Alford, ODB caught a lot of curl routes underneath & that's not his zone in the cover 3. Our FS got benched after that long slant route for a TD. So he played bad but it wasn't THAT BAD -
FLOWERY BRANCH – Falcons cornerback Desmond Trufant could have taken the day off against the New York Giants on Sunday.
New York Giants veteran quarterback Eli Manning showed Trufant an immense amount of respect. On the 71 offensive snaps, the Giants did not throw one pass in Trufant’s direction.
He was the only corner in the NFL, who played 70-plus snaps and didn’t get any action, according to profootballfocus.com.
Trufant finished with three tackles.
Julio Jones currently has the highest overall grade of any receiver in the NFL with a +9.0. On Sunday against the Giants, he had 13 receptions on 14 targets. His 92.9 completion percentage was the best of any WR with 6 or more receptions.
Right guard, Chris Chester had another good day. His +1.5 overall grade was the second week in a row he had over a 0 grade.
Matt Ryan had the 5th highest overall grade for QBs on Sunday.
Defense
Vic Beasley had a great game, after a somewhat disappointing Week 1. His +5.3 overall grade was the 2nd best of any 4-3 Defensive Ends in Week 2.
Ra’Shede Hagemen also had a good game at Defensive Tackle. His +1.4 grade was the second week in a row he earned a grade over +1.0.
Ricardo Allen struggled a little bit on Sunday. His -2.9 was the 2nd worst of any safety.
