Falcons Fan Poll: Grade coaches, players, draft class after 5 games

#Falcons Fan Poll: Grade Atlanta’s coaching staff, draft class and position groups after the first five games.

Five weeks into the 2022 NFL season, the Atlanta Falcons have a 2-3 record and are 0-2 against NFC South opponents. On paper, this is where most expected them to be, but upon closer inspection, the Falcons are maddeningly close to being 4-1, or potentially even 5-0.

This year’s team is markedly better along the offense line, but the pass-rush still needs work and the new-look secondary has experienced some growing pains. Now that we are roughly a quarter of the way into the season, it’s time for a Falcons fan poll.

Hand out your grades for Atlanta’s coaching staff, rookie draft class and position groups after five games in our fan polls below.

Cameron Jordan now lead all NFC defensive ends in Pro Bowl fan voting

New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan currently leads all of his peers in the NFC in voting for the 2020 Pro Bowl, per NFL release

[sendtonews_embed video_id=”fAUNH8iFeB-1066355-7498″]

Only one member of the New Orleans Saints leads the NFC in Pro Bowl votes, and it’s defensive end Cameron Jordan. An NFL release on Thursday listed him with 80,675 votes from fans so far, leapfrogging last week’s leader (Carolina Panthers edge rusher Brian Burns, who had 62,814 votes at the time).

Jordan was recently recognized as the NFC Defensive Player of the Month for November after netting 5 sacks in as many games, to go along with a dozen tackles (half of them stopping the offense for a loss of yards). He’s benefited from the return of Marcus Davenport to the lineup, who demands attention from offensive lines that was previously shifted Jordan’s way. Improved pass coverage in the secondary has also created more opportunities for Jordan to make an impact.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Carlton Davis remains the leader at his position group after surpassing his Saints counterpart Marshon Lattimore. That’s despite Davis allowing multiple touchdown catches and more than 200 receiving yards in his last game before Tampa Bay’s bye week. Bah, humbug.

Of course there are many other Saints players worthy of Pro Bowl consideration; cast your ballot at this link before fan voting closes on Thursday, Dec. 17.

Pro Bowl voting: Bucs’ Carlton Davis passes Marshon Lattimore after giving up 3 TD’s

Tampa Bay Buccaneers CB Carlton Davis earned more Pro Bowl votes than Saints CB Marshon Lattimore after allowing 211 yards to Tyreek Hill.

[jwplayer qqDO6sRe-ThvAeFxT]

Marshon Lattimore was the only New Orleans Saints player to lead his position group in Pro Bowl votes a week ago, but he’s taken a backseat to Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Carlton Davis in a Dec. 3 update from the NFL.

That isn’t very surprising, in a vacuum. Davis has had a great year for Tampa Bay and blanketed Michael Thomas in their Week 1 meeting, so he probably deserves a Pro Bowl nod. But it’s tough to accept these results after he was brined, smoked, and seared by Kansas City Chiefs receiver Tyreek Hill last Sunday.

Pro Football Focus charting found that Hill was targeted 9 times with Davis in coverage, catching all 9 passes for a staggering 211 receiving yards and 3 touchdown receptions. It was one of the worst games for a cornerback in recent memory and clashes horribly with this news of Davis leading all NFC corners in Pro Bowl votes.

For context, Lattimore has allowed just 2 touchdown catches in his last 5 games — a total of 15 receptions on 27 targets for 157 receiving yards. And that’s while dealing with a hamstring injury that’s limited him in practice and held him out of New Orleans’ Week 11 visit to Tampa Bay.

Maybe Davis rebounds when the Buccaneers come out of their Week 13 bye. But if you’re interested in flipping this result back the other way with Lattimore on top, cast your Pro Bowl vote at this link.
