Atlanta Falcons Defense Seeing Red

Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Dean Pees took the podium and joked with reporters, “no change in the weather? Thought I was coming to Atlanta, it was going to be hot all the time.” Well, it is unseasonable cool in Atlanta; it’s reaching a boiling point around the Falcons practice facility.

During the first two weeks, teams have cut through the Falcons defense like a hot knife through butter. The Falcons gave up 80 points during those two games, far more than any other team. This is hardly the start expected under and two-time Super Bowl champion defensive coordinator.
