How will the Atlanta Falcons defense play with Paul Soliai sidelined by a calf injury?

Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle Paul Soliai won't be on the field tomorrow afternoon. The team officially ruled him out yesterday as he continues to recover from a calf injury. It's a significant loss for the Falcons, a team that really needs to put its best product on the field to have any chance to win tomorrow.

Soliai has rediscovered himself following the head coach transition. He had a lackluster 2014, drawing the ire of Falcons fans everywhere. Even so, the team gave him a pass, knowing his potential. The hefty manbeast run blocker extraordinaire has helped anchor the Falcons' defensive front this season.
