The Falcons third preseason game 17-6 loss against the Jacksonville Jaguars is summarized in one word: inconsistency. Both the offense and the defense were very inconsistent in regards to execution, in all phases in a game where the starters saw the most playing time.
The Falcons offense had a good showing on the first drive. After, the offensive line had major issues slowing down arguably the best defensive line in football. Also, player execution began to falter in other facets. Drops by Sanu, Ridley and Hooper didn’t help the offense. Ridley, the 2018 1st round pick, had a particularly rough outing with 3 drops.
