“What kind of offensive game plan was that,” 92-9 The Game’s Carl Dukes asked as he and cohost Mike bell began their show with reactions to the Atlanta Falcons 16-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, in a game which Michael Penix Jr. threw four interceptions.

“Why not get on the headset Kevin [Stefanski] and say ‘Tommy [Rees] we need to run the football,’” Dukes continued as he expressed his concern with the Atlanta coaching staff not making the decision to abandon their initial game plan and divert to running the ball more. “Atlanta, I don’t understand this,” Dukes said.Falcons stuck with game plan too long in loss to Bucs
