The Atlanta Falcons have done a lot of impressive things already in 2017, but there may be no more impressive fact than this one: They still haven’t surrendered a lead yet.
Atlanta’s had two close call games thus far this season, but remarkably, they’ve spent more than two-thirds of their three games on the field with a lead. The remaining time they’ve spent tied, which accounts for just over three total quarters. That they did so against the Packers and Lions—who are both quality teams—and a Bears team that just took out the Steelers should tell you plenty about how well they’re playing.
