Coming off an embarrassing 30-0 shutout loss to the Carolina Panthers, the Falcons responded on Sunday with a 34 27 win over the Washington Commanders, racking up a season high 435 yards and never once trailing.
In fact, it took just one drive for Atlanta to surpass its offensive production from Week 3. Now the question lingers: was this a real fix, or just a one week rebound against a shorthanded Washington squad?
The turnaround didn’t happen by accident. After the Panthers game, the Falcons fired wide receivers coach Ike Hilliard and moved offensive coordinator Zac Robinson from the booth to the sideline.
