Zac Robinson is more predictable than Grizzard until he proves otherwise (not likely)

There's nothing inherently wrong with the pistol formation, but the Falcons are running the ball 70% of the time when lined up that way, and they're passing the ball 93% of the time when lined up in shotgun. "We don't feel that way," Robinson responded when asked about the predictability of his offense. "I feel like sometimes when you have these types of games as coaches, you say, ‘Ok, do we need to pull back? How can we pull back to simplify and maybe we're trying to do much from a schematic standpoint.’ That's always what we're looking inward as coaches is like, ‘OK, maybe we put too much on the plate, maybe we're trying to scheme too much and we need to simplify it.’ But there is more. The Falcons clearly use analytics when making decisions as an organization. It doesn't take a PHD in statistics to figure out 93% of the time and 70% of the time. Whether Robinson feels his play calling has been predictable or not is irrelevant. It has been. The good news for Robinson and the Falcons is that it's an easy fix. Chart your plays and avoid trends. I guarantee the defense is doing it against the offense. The Atlanta Falcons have weapons all over the field, and a better run/pass balance based on formation will go a long way to improving the offense. It took the media calling him out for him to stop being lazy and do his job. But he is the same lazy SOB like he was in ATL. As a long time Bucs fan two thumbs down. 100% you lost me with this hire.

Interesting with Penix. He had a long college career so his inability to grasp the offense, even if it's complex, would be concerning.

But I also am concerned with an overly complicated offense in general because it reminds me of all the crap Gruden would do only to have it be a 3 yard out route to a slow TE.

Quite a blame game - Penix v Robinson - if you read the coverage of the Falcons from last season. Basically that the short passing game that worked so well for Mayfield in 2024 was holding back Penix from throwing deep
