Falcons’ revamped line faces tough test

Last season, the Falcons’ offensive line got whipped by the Vikings’ defensive line.

Left tackle Jake Matthews is the only returner from that crew which featured left guard Justin Blalock, center Joe Hawley, right guard Jon Asamoah and right tackle Lamar Holmes in the 41-28 loss on Sept. 28, 2014.

A rash of injuries forced tight end Levine Toilolo to finish the game at right tackle.

Matthews will have his hands full with defensive end Brian Robison.
