With the Atlanta Falcons set to take on their hated rival in the New Orleans Saints in a game that holds considerable stakes for the team’s playoff hopes, naming five Falcons becomes even more critical. This week’s intrigue centers around offensive line injuries and a trio of Falcons looking for breakout games.
Ryan Neuzil & Storm Norton
The Falcons will be starting two backups this weekend in center Ryan Neuzil and right tackle Storm Norton and both will face challenges. Neuzil will be tasked with handling some of the protection calls against a formidable Saints blitz, which has been their most effective way of getting pressure this year, according to Next Gen Stats.
