On this episode of Reporting as Eligible, Paul, JR, and Matub discuss the tough loss to the Falcons, whether the defensive lapses late in game were really Joe Barry’s fault, AJ Dillon’s continued decline, Bijan’s electric play, Aaron Jones’ absence, and whether running backs maybe do matter after all.

They also take on whether Jordan Love played well or not, if the passing game is sustainable, Desmond Ridder’s terribleness, mental mistakes on offense and defense, Wicks and Reed, the upcoming game against the Saints, and whether Pro Football Focus is doing ok over there. And hey, the NFC North is terrible! Plus listener questions!
