As the Atlanta Falcons are trying to wrap up the preseason, we can look at their first couple of opponents. The Falcons will travel to Minnesota to play the Vikings in week one and will host the Philadelphia Eagles in week two on Sunday Night Football.
These are two critical opponents to start the year.
In the Dan Quinn era, the Atlanta Falcons are 0-2 against the Vikings. Both games were ugly as the Vikings defense had the Falcons figured out in both match-ups in 2015 and 2017. Both games were home games for the Falcons and now they will be traveling on the road September 8th for their first game.
