The Atlanta Falcons started the season with a tough loss, but it’s still early, and there were plenty of things to be happy about on Sunday.
An offensive weapon was utilized as promised, a key veteran left their mark on the game, and a low-budget free agent acquisition looks like a gem. Unfortunately, the bad outweighed the good. Both sides of the ball need to improve, and some key players will have to tighten up as they prepare to take on the Eagles. Atlanta can get on track if these players can clean up their game, and those who thrived continue to thrive.
