Ochocinco Issues Warning to Atlanta Falcons: Adversity is Coming!
While the Atlanta Falcons just beat the New Orleans Saints and are on a roll, Ochocinco says their real test is still ahead. He points out that Atlanta hasn't faced true adversity yet.
Opposing defenses will eventually stack nine in the box to force the game out of Bijan Robinson’s hands. When that happens, the Falcons can't just rely on the ground game. Michael Penix Jr. is going to have to throw the ball more and connect with Drake London & Kyle Pitts, and prove they can produce through the air.
"Listen Unc, the Falcons haven't faced any adversity yet. I know you look at it, you look at the way they playing... Not yet, Joe, not yet. Not yet, no. I understand the first few games when there was no quarterback, it was up in the air when Cooper Rush had to play."
"But I'm saying, while Penix is in there, I'm talking about a game where you get into a game, Joe, and the run game ain't working. They make a conscious effort to stop the run, they stack nine in the box, you know you got a safety in the middle of the field, you got two corners out there, whatever they do, and you got to throw the ball. You have to do things different when you can't rely on Bijan, and him running so well."
"And the fact that you run the ball so well, it opens up the pass, and Drake London is able to go crazy because they scared of what Bijan gonna do. I'm just saying a game like that, that's gonna come at some point."
Is Coach Kevin Stefanski well prepared for these upcoming adversities?
