What seems like a familiar feeling isn’t actually all that familiar to the Falcons. Four of their six losses this season has resulted from the last play of the game. Although not capitalizing on golden opportunities and failing to convert in key situations played major roles in those painful defeats, it’s staggering to see how the Falcons have managed to lose in such a repetitive manner. What wasn’t repetitive about yesterday’s defeat involves the offense’s lack of production. It was the first time all season they failed to score more than 20 points in consecutive games.
For all the defense’s deficiencies, they managed to hold their own against a resurgent Dallas’ offense.
