Atlanta Falcons vs. Detroit Lions Preseason Week 1 Highlights | 2022 NFL Season 

based on the fact he was just running...

@@outboy2 what were you watching

@@outboy2 bro what?

@@outboy2 He had to most of those plays, both the edges collapsed quick that means either step up and throw and scramble for yards. Hard to not unless you only are getting pressure from one side and can roll out and have more time to find a target. I think he made the right reads.

@@outboy2 3 runs?

What real game only has starters play 1 series?

@@AdamB34 the aggressive way all the players are playing shows what type of football we’ll see this year regardless of 1st or 3rd-4th string.

@@gangties204 it tells us nothing at all.

the games are intense because over 50% of the people on that field will not have a job come season start. It is their 1 shot in life to make the NFL. It is as intense as it gets.

@@mzbn5251 lol... some of you are easily impressed. There is nothing "intense as it gets" about pre-season games. Does EVERYTHING have to be "the most"... "the best"... "nothing else like it" 😅😂??? Hyperbole in this world has gone so far over the edge at point

It’s the flow of new blood into the league, all these teams are really young now and they want to earn their spots. I like it, pre season feels like college now. The nfl average age is like 25 it’s nice. All the olds retired and now we’re getting next gen athletes 👌🏻

@@loosemons1538 huh? The pre-season is like college now? Put the pipe down

Agreed !!!

I’m so sorry that I missed this…I was just thinking the same thing !😃

Indeed

What?? New adventure to be traash???? Refreshing to see a running QB? Whats the trade off? Mariota, running QB=NON ACCURATE like Ryan, not as good, not a HOFer, not a lot of experience in the playoffs, etc. IN what world does a falcon fan like the fact that MAriota is now our new QB but not future HOFer like Matt Ryan? And reports are saying he's tearing it up with the Colts?No, change is not good when you don't have eto. IF it isn't broke, don't fix it. Nothing was wrong with Ryan, it was the overall team around him. Now that he's with the Colts, watch what the Colts do this year, SMH.

@@Slimkidd730 matt did nothing for atlanta for the last 3 years it can sometimes be better to have a mobile qb marcus performed way better than matt this game plus matt is not as athletic as Marcus

@@Slimkidd730 as much as I love Matt he wasn’t able to do anything in ATL, tbh they held him back. And while yes mariota isn’t as accurate as Ryan it’s not because he’s a running QB. For all we know Ridder could have the athleticism of Mariota and accuracy of Ryan, obviously that’s optimistic but that’s the point in saying that it’s a new adventure, anything can happen including success we didn’t even achieve with Matt.

Of course, all time falcons fan but glad to see we have someone new

Hard-fought game, these guys were fighting for their pro football career prospects.

Bullshit. What game were you watching

Blough with the assist a fumble inside the 20 with 2 min left = yikes.

Lions lost so not epic you 🫵🏻🤡💩🖕🏻

yall gassed tf out of this

Ford Field is always rocking to be honest

@@otter8362 I just wish others where like that lol

love my city we be lit fr

most excitement that godforsaken franchise has given their fans in quite a while

Haven’t seen it in years lol

just keep him away from dogs

@@maiqtheliar3749 bruh😂💀💀💀💀

Pretty cool huh?? Hardly see a Falcons QB run the ball alot since Michael Vick.

Shi wuz pretty f**kin sweet ngl. It wuz almost surreal. I'm so used to watchin every other team's qbs do that shi. That shi hit so different. Like man we NEVER do that

Lions dont do Playoffs.

@@oppressedwhite473 Neither do Falcons

@@dy2859 they been to the Super Bowl twice to lose Lions not 1

@@dy2859 No sir / Birds got to S.B and lost Lions last playoff 1991 Fact

​@@oppressedwhite473that was there last playoff win there last playoff appearance was 2016😂

We have a lot of that Old School Patriots style culture, of course we can find undrafted wideouts

He was wide open

I’m a falcons fan but I doubt he become great prob a good 3/4 string

@@RG-gv8ss he was body to body with the cornerback what you smoking?

He went to my high school this man is an absolute stud and so dope to see him in the NFL snaggin TDS in his first game already

I mean the front 7 didn’t do that well.

@@quintin_xd5848 We held them to under 4 yards per carry as a team, we didn't allow a run over 10 yards, and the QBs had a QB Rating of 78 collectively. We only got one sack, but we generated good pressure. Detroit's WR just did a great job of getting open.

@@money0925 1 word...... LIONS

@@kennyjs95 uhh. . .ok. . .

@@donsoloki Why the poop emojis bro 🤣🤣🤣

This system match him so perfect!

Wasn't he the cover of Madden 08?

@@slimdangerous1928 no he was not

@@Jose-lz8in It was Vince young, that's my bad.

As a raider fan I still think Mariota is better than Carr...hope I'm proved wrong ...just an edit I've been a fan for 45 years....I'm 51 ...we actually haven't drafted a top qb since Stabler....60 years ....I mean top of my head I don't remember one

He’s injured?

@@idkJc yeah. He blew his knee out his senior season.

Nah

My homie derrick Barnes plays linebacker . He missed read a couple plays I feel you. He just tries to rush tackles and ends up getting Burt to the outside

@@garrybussell facts, there’s such a thing as being too aggressive

You're aware Kap was terrible aside from like 1.5 seasons right? People look at his low int total and they think he's some great passer with great decision making but he was actually a wildly inaccurate passer and his ints were only low because he never threw unless his receiver was open in the 1st read. If the window was tight on his first read he'd just run because he knew he couldn't fit it in. He couldn't throw guys open and he was a one read and run qb. You do not want a qb anything like him. He was just a slightly more athletic Marcus Mariota.

I wanted the lions to draft Ridder. I hope he smokes them every time he plays them!

blough and boyle are two of if not the worst qbs in the nfl. why they are still there is beyond me. he litterally gave the game away.

@@hammer2596 yea sure, lions been beating the falcons ass the last few meet up

@@DemeGod313 and fuckyostupidity too

@@DemeGod313 Any given sunday man

They wouldn't be Mediocre if they had a better schedule so I still.have them low

Those two incomplete passes in a row from ridder bother me vs practice squad defense

@@gfrancisco8870 alot of the drops incomplete passes were the wrs fault

@@gfrancisco8870 He’s just getting started. Let him be behind Mariotta for a year or so and he’ll improve. He’s got some serious potential.

Just a ton of drops that make Ridder look worse than he actually was. Realistically speaking he was fine

I totally agree, It was one of the thing Ryan couldn't do was move out of the pocket as quick, and now its great to see Falcons now have 2 QB's that can do that exactly. In my opinion, I think Mariota is that little bit quicker.

What ever it takes to lose, that's our Lions.

They don't talk much about our lions at all in fact they make fun of us if you listen carefully

You do realize it is preseason game 1?

@@dustinconnolly3162 You do realize that fans can cheer and be happy if they want right?

Lmfaooo let these fools have their fun 🤣 Zach Wilson was a star in the preseason last year...im just saying 🤣

@@dustinconnolly3162 damn y’all never letting fans enjoy a win who cares Just because it’s preseason doesn’t mean they can’t root for there team & you have players fighting for a spot everyone knows it’s preseason smh

Let’s Rise up to 0-17 season because this team is going to be two packs of ass

Same with Jared Davis

@@MilkyTheMan who

Yyyyyyyyyyeeeesssss

Ridder may have a bright future in this league. He looked good.

That penalty on the Lions interception was HUGE. Lions O-line looks Nasty. GG from a Falcons fan

Yeah, Lions backup QBs arent great, but the starting Lions team had a lot of good things to take away. Ridder looked good too

@@808bboarder both teams starters are looking solid, I wanna see your team succeed as well coming from a lions fan. I believe we both have very bright futures

@@noahsacco2752 2 shitty teams looked good against each other 😂 what do you expect

@TBDMusic No. Dan Campbell plans to hold a farting contest to determine who wins the starting kicker job in the next meeting.

Same here. Actually I started last season after mulling over my fave, the 49ers, and the second consecutive Super Bowl loss. 9ers for over 40 yrs, Lions since Eric Hipple and Billy Simms. Let's go Honolulu Blue

@Goatbe Bryant Nah... hate the Cowboys, Raiders, Seahawks and Cowboys.

It’s preseason man. Let’s wait until about week 7 for I told you so’s lol

and yet people hate on lamar for being mobile

@@adamjohnson5307 Adam Adam Adam...smh its is what it is man....If your QB can move the pocket...It takes pressure of the O-Line and helps the running game...it is what it is Look around the League man. Buffalo couldnt run the ball at all..Their QB was ther running game....Chiefs O-line sucked...Mahomes make ls them look better...

@@adamjohnson5307 ikr right, revisit this 3 games in and itll be very different

Bro. Take it from me. I completely agree with you on the mobility point. But the Lions back 7 is historically bad here. They cannot tackle or cover. They are literally going to surrender 1500+ yards down the middle this year. Matt Patricia, as bad as he was, understood the importance of protecting that area. The Lions are not even close to being suitable there. Don’t see this as me taking away from the Falcons. I still believe you guys finish with a better record and love your pov. But telling you from a Detroit perspective this defense is among the worst in the middle you will ever see on an nfl field.

@Jon Thor what is the video about

Thanks for giving his props, if he can elevate Pitts or Drake like he did Bernhardt right there to win it, we may be on the way to the big times.

Ridder was playing his first nfl game so that’s doubtful. Lions had receivers like funchess way in to the late second half so no excuses

@@djstud1987 Falcons untalked about guys on Defense stood up at the biggest moment, Ridder sealed the deal with a dagger to the heart.

@@djstud1987 lmfaooo and we had david blout which is the third string QB throwing him the ball definitely an excuse , not like I made it one anyways until you yapped about it and you obviously forget ridder just came off a historic season for the Cincinnati Bearcats so it's not like he was ass in college, literally the best QB coming out of last years draft 🤣🤣💯💯

@@juliusdeloach sure whatever helps you sleep tonight man

We gotta calm down on defense, got burned way too many times because of over pursuit

Yeah but, the defense got gashed upfront.

I'm gonna root for Detroit. I knew by how they closed last season that they would be solid this season

that is a tight and strong offensive line.

He’s gonna hurt himself if he keeps running like that

I’d say the best they can get is 8-9 personally prob 6-11 still not horrible for a falcons team without Marty ice

@@imlordbacon7473 Mariota will look like an upgrade. He has a lot of talent that was terribly utilized in Tennesse. Marcus is ready to take over:

@@luggy3480 yea I realized that too, a couple of rough landing but if he do gets hurt, they are preparing the backup (Ridder) very well. I like how they let him get the rest of the reps after mariota very few teams do that.

People clown his injury history but he's actually not missed much time

Hopefully we get to see Troy Anderson...

@Jon Thor I like the optimism but the schedule is very tough this season. Who knows maybe I’ll be surprised but I’m not expecting more than 5 wins.

Thanks for any replies ❤

Facts plus he made the block to allow Ridder to escape for that last touchdown. He played with aggression and shed tacklers he’s gonna be good.

It’s the preseason.

@@2iggy_ exactly the point. We usually lose every preseason game. Hopefully that gives us confidence frfr

@@litnation1515 it’s the preseason.

@@2iggy_ cookie?

Preseason optimism be damned

Wtf. Hell no. They lucky to win 3 games. What are you thinking man.

@@JoesCornerstadios They might only win just 3 I'm not a Lions Fan it's just a feeling that I have no evidence nothing I've watched making me thinking 10 wins it's a FEELING ,say if I had to Bet money on the Lions I would say 5 - 12 maybe 6 - 11 Last Season they lost 6 games few than 5 points each game they would have the lead ,then Lose they easily could've been 8 - 9 in 2021 One more thing there is always a team that was absolutely horrible then the next that same team is in the Playoffs happens every year 💯% J O E S Question do U think this NFL Season every single team from 2021 will all make the Playoffs again in 2022 there will not be 1 single new team making the Big Dance ? 🤔 b t w U asked what am I Thinking Man ! Obviously I'm not Thinking ,they are the Freakin Detroit Lions Lol

​@@alexandermatthews145 you're right they went 9-8

​@@alexandermatthews145 not to mention they are favorites to win the nfc north

Of course he looked better. He played against the second and third string defense and almost got picked off twice.. went 10 for 22 and threw 2 touchdowns.. Marcus went 2 for 2 and ran in a touchdown in 12 plays.. and that was against the first team defense.. get a clue.. your delusional if you think Ridder is better for Atlanta than Mariota..

Nah, Ridder played against 3rd stringers, he is where he is supposed to be and that's Mariotas backup. Marcus is an elite talent at QB.

It's always a whacky matchup. But I think the Falcons and Lions seem to both find "creative" ways to end games on any given week lol. So when they play each other it's just double chaos.

Bro we legit have a new look Falcons all around from players, coaches, and management. It would be wise to tune in this time around. Realistically I don't have super high expectations (this season) however I believe at best were 10-7 and worse 7-10 again. It really looks like we drafted some good pieces this year hope everyone stays healthy. Lastly Ridder looks very promising 👌🏽, looks like 4 years a stater in college has really paid off his confidence and IQ is on point.

ON GOD

Was picked twice against the backups. If Ridder starts for significant snaps, start fitting Young/Stroud for a Falcons jersey

Dolphins Vs Bengals game a insane playoff game last year

Nice to see a quarterback that can throw out of the pocket and run. Ryan put up numbers, but it takes more than that.

Yea the gameplan was 👌🏾 I’m officially hype for the season

I think we'll do better than people expect but 12-5? With this schedule? I'm cautiously optimistic about this team

@@gmenu8032 I think we can win 8 or more with the pieces we have fasho even with a “tough schedule”. Teams aren’t always the same year in and out. New teams emerge every year.

I'm just saying man like, jeez it's the first preseason game of the year ... Calm down.

Just a little 👌🏽 I always backed him

@@NutBustingHistory hell na lol

O-16 DETROIT LIONS HEARTBROKEN 💔😭

its you

It's 17 games not 16 yep this guy hyped over pre season 🤣

🤣🤣

You gotta be a troll bot or something

@Max79 🥇 I feel like your a Jets fan 😂

I like Mariota & Ridder over bummy mayfield 😂 @Max79

@Max79 🥇 I like mariota & Ridder over bummy mayfield 😂

😂, true, but relax man.. it's a simple preseason game .. I think a lot of fans really wanted this win just because of the momentum carried over from Hard knocks opening episode but to be a winning team things take time.. oh btw I think the back ups for the Lions were in..I don't believe half of those guys will play come the season opener.. 🤷

Lol Bruins. Has Marchand licked anybody recently?

@@thewizardofoz511 thank you literally the second half was all backups who probably don't make the team

Uh based on a preseason game lmao learn football
