Ugggh, think you might be under-crediting the Falcons on this. We are a miserable franchise.

Kind of wild that we just played the two teams a month ago in friendlies. Not the toughest of draws, but no patsies.

Felt like the little engine that could all night, but I knew they never really had a chance.

I don't think the Falcons emphasize enough having the D-line get their hands up in his face. Notice many more batted and tipped balls from other teams against him.

You’re thinking old school pre-climate change. They are also becoming increasingly worried about the middle of summer games at a lot of locations around the country.

Everyone has been killing them for their lack of conversions (which is an issue). I saw that in the Colts game, all eight 3rd downs they failed on were 5 yards to go or longer. That tells me they also have a 1st and 2nd down problem which no one seems to talk about.

In general, I think teams across all sports make mistakes hanging on to aging stars too long. That clearly wasn't the case here. Braves lost this one.
