Football is a game of physicality and strategy similar to chess in an attempt to score touchdowns. No part of the field is more challenging than inside of the red zone which is the area between the goal line and the opponents 20-yard line.
The reason why it is so difficult is due to the limitations in space which allows defenders to play closer together, making it a challenge for the offense. Using http://www.pro-football-reference.com as a reference, I have broken down the red zone numbers.
The 2017 Falcon’s offense struggled in the red zone, well by their standards.
