The first of Atlanta’s two West Coast games did not go according to plan, as the Falcons were outmatched for much of the afternoon before mounting a furious fourth-quarter rally. Atlanta’s first drive looked promising, but a Younghoe Koo miss to end it should have been the first sign that things were amiss.
There were miscues and bright spots in all three phases for the Falcons, which leave us wondering what to exactly make of the first two weeks of the season. Whether Atlanta played effectively or poorly makes no difference, however. The results are the same, bringing the Falcons to 0-2 on the season.
