The Falcons under Dan Quinn have an atrocious record against AFC teams. Yet, going into this game with the Indianapolis Colts, many felt like Atlanta had the edge. With linebacker Darius Leonard out, Matt Ryan and the offense should have had an easier time. How did things turn out? Let’s take a look below.
First quarter
The Falcons won the toss and deferred. Jacoby Brissett and the Colts offense start with an 8 yard run by Marlon Mack. After a short run for a first down, Brissett finds Mack for a 9-yard completion, who picks up the first down on the next run.
