This Falcons defense is just as gritty and tough as the offense. While they do give up yards in the passing game, the resilience of this group so has been so inspiring on so many levels.
This defense gave up over 350 yards of passing against Tom Brady and the Buccaneers offense, which is not ideal. However, they only gave up 21 points the entire game, including zero points in the 4th quarter. What’s so refreshing about this group is that even though they start out very slowly in the first half, adjustments are made in the second half and they really have shown that they can clamp down on offenses and give the Falcons offense a chance to get back into it.
