What is there even left to say about the Falcons' implosion against the Bears at home on Sunday? There were a few bright spots, like Antone Smith. Okay, fine, Antone Smith was pretty much the only bright spot.
Antone Smith is that dude.
— R.C.A.R. (@CrossonTheRyan) October 12, 2014
LOL, Antone Smith. #CHIvsATL
— Jay Adams (@FalconsJAdams) October 12, 2014
Antone Smith scores again. Wow.
— vaughn mcclure (@vxmcclure23) October 12, 2014
SMITH IS GONE OH MY GOD HE'S GONE
— Kendall Jackson (@projectjax) October 12, 2014
Oh wow I'm so surprised that Antone Smith had an explosive play for a touchdown.
— Jeanna (@jeannathomas) October 12, 2014
ANTONE to the HOUSE.

More like #Mantone, imo #CHIvsATL
— Jay Adams (@FalconsJAdams) October 12, 2014
OK......will we see Antoine Smith anymore today??? #CHIvsATL
— Mr. Awesomatic (@DJFrisco) October 12, 2014
I can't wait until January, when someone on YouTube has an Antoine Smith tribute video. Human highlight reel. #ATLvsCHI

The defense, not surprisingly, looked bad.
This [lack of] defense is getting OLD.
— WonderJaye (@WonderJaye) October 12, 2014
Jay Cutler had enough time in the pocket to smoke a cig and tell a dark story about his childhood.

Lmao! Three man rush on third down. Classic.

— Take a guess (@MyNameIs_LEO) October 12, 2014
So hard to talk smack with this defense. #RiseUp #ATLvsCHI
— Shannan O (@shannanunc) October 12, 2014
If they did a remake of Bull Durham, the Falcons would play the role of Annie Savoy, @falcfans
— Swaggy PhD (@Das_ProfX) October 12, 2014
#Falcons DE Osi Umenyiora was irate that he was pulled for Malliciah Goodman on that play. There was no pressure on Cutler.
— D. Orlando Ledbetter (@DOrlandoAJC) October 12, 2014
So far we've given up a 1st and 15 and a 1st and 20

Guys, those stiff-arms are NOT a strength issue - it’s a tackling issue. Our D, as always, are tackling WAY TOO HIGH. #Falcons
— The DW (@TheWalkerman) October 12, 2014
I hate you Mike Nolan. @Atlanta_Falcons better step up. #falcons
— flintrock70 (@flintrock70) October 12, 2014
@TheFalcoholic Falcons defense strategy is bend but don't break but also break.

Although Jonathan Massaquoi had some nice pressure and Paul Worrilow had a pretty amazing fingertip tackle.
Paul Worrilow with the one-handed jersey cloth tackle that probably also implemented the use of The Force. #CHIvsATL
— Jay Adams (@FalconsJAdams) October 12, 2014
Worrilow grabs some jersey with his fingertips and limits Chicago to a 1-yard gain.
— Jeanna (@jeannathomas) October 12, 2014
Worrilow's jersey grab > his tackling??
— WonderJaye (@WonderJaye) October 12, 2014
— The DW (@TheWalkerman) October 12, 2014
For real tho. He's the Worrihulk
— Kristen (@kristenm2185) October 12, 2014
The offense, slightly more surprisingly, looked bad.
I really, really hate that play call.

The sad thing is, the Falcons know how much Hester wants to beat the Bears and they aren't playing like it.
— ___theKing___ (@___theKing___) October 12, 2014
Toilolo ToiloNO!
— Kendall Jackson (@projectjax) October 12, 2014
Toilolo's hands were carved from soapstone.
— The Falcoholic (@TheFalcoholic) October 12, 2014
Matt can't throw and catch the ball, folks.
— ZTrez (@ZekeTrezevant) October 12, 2014
Falcons WRs/TEs continue to put the ball on the ground. Anticipating contact after the catch.
— Matt Bowen (@MattBowen41) October 12, 2014
You drop a pass, you drop a pass, everyone drops a pass.
— Liz Turcotte (@lizturcotte1) October 12, 2014
Drops on Drops on Drops "@DOrlandoAJC: We have the #Falcons receivers for 5 drops. Julio 2, Roddy 2 and Toilolo 1"
— AB (@MsBliss1212) October 12, 2014
I don't think there is any questions about who the better WR's have been today. Brandon Marshall and Jeffery have been amazing.
— Carl Dukes (@putemupcdukes) October 12, 2014
Although Matt Bryant is always Matt Bryant. He's as clutch as they come.
Matt MONEY Bryant!!!!!!
— Krissy Brierre (@krissybri) October 12, 2014
MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could HUG Matt Bryant!!!!
— WonderJaye (@WonderJaye) October 12, 2014
Thank God for Matt Bryant.

I'm still in my church clothes @Atlanta_Falcons Y'all can't be gettin me hyped like this.
— R.C.A.R. (@CrossonTheRyan) October 12, 2014
I trust Matt Bryant as far as I could be kicked by him. #CHIvsATL
— war - low (@rarehighfives) October 12, 2014
This is from a Bills fan, but a lot of Falcons fans are starting to shift their perspectives in this direction.
I know I'm gonna regret putting my faith in boring ass Mike Smith
— Brett (@BLeez17) October 12, 2014
The officiating was bad.
The ref just said "still 2nd down" while holding up 1 finger. Mmkay.
— Krissy Brierre (@krissybri) October 12, 2014
Bear hugs.
— The Falcoholic (@TheFalcoholic) October 12, 2014
That's probably a tackling too hard penalty on Worrilow.
— Andy (@ace3131) October 12, 2014
How the hell was that flag waived off?
— ***JEFF BENEDICT*** (@BIGTIMEbenedict) October 12, 2014
I cannot fathom how that flagged was picked up. That's some advanced stupidity right there.
— Kendall Jackson (@projectjax) October 12, 2014
/sends hate mail to Walt Anderson RT @FalconsJAdams: If you're wondering, this is Walt Anderson's officiating crew today. #CHIvsATL
— Jeanna (@jeannathomas) October 12, 2014
I hope these refs all stub their toes and lose their car keys.

And it's hard to imagine that it won't continue to be depressing.
Rest of the season basically becomes a "when is everyone getting fired?" watch. No way around it.
