Falcons captain doesn't hold back on his defense after gutting loss to Colts

After the Atlanta Falcons surrendered an 83-yard touchdown run to Jonathan Taylor in the fourth quarter, fans knew how this game would end. It didn't matter if it was in overseas or not, the Dirty Birds collapsed once again, falling 31-25 in a heartbreaker that marked their fourth straight loss.

Following the deflating defeat, Falcons linebacker Kaden Elliss—like many fans—was rightfully frustrated. While addressing the media after the game, Elliss admitted he thought the defense quit on the long touchdown run. And to be honest, it would be the least surprising update to hear.
