ANALYSIS/OPINION
You will read this week about the great and powerful Atlanta Falcons offense — the force of nature that hung 36 points on the vaunted Seattle Seahawks defense and destroyed the Green Bay Packers with 44 on their way to Super Bowl 51 — and wonder how the New England Patriots can stop them.
You will read about how the Falcons offense, engineered by former Redskins offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan, finished second in the NFL with 415.8 yards of offense a game, third in the league with 295.3 yards passing per game (just behind the Washington Redskins) and fifth in rushing with 120.
