Pass protection holds key to Falcons offense continuing to crush opponents

The Atlanta Falcons offense has been flying high the past few weeks, thanks in large part due to the dominance of rookie tight end Kyle Pitts. His efforts have led to a combined 16 catches for 282 yards and a touchdown over the past two games, and the talent that made him the best player available at the top of this past year’s draft was on full display.

In that span, we’ve also seen quarterback Matt Ryan play some of the best football he’s shown in recent years. His passer rating over the past two games has been 103.
