After an abysmal Sunday afternoon in New Orleans, here’s your Falcoholinks for a Monday morning.
The Falcons turned in an especially ugly effort against the Saints, dropping the game on the road and moving to 3-7 on the season. The first half was a field goal-filled snoozer and Atlanta’s defense collapsed in the second half to complete the loss. Dirk Koetter’s continued employment is one of the weirder facets of the weird year that 2020 has been.
Injuries
Atlanta did not escape this one unscathed, as rookie linebacker Mykal Walker picked up a hamstring injury in the first half, and Julio Jones, who was battling through a hamstring injury all game, left late in the fourth quarter.
