Despite a disappointing loss last week against the division rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Falcons continue to prove that no game is over until the very end. The resilience of this group is very encouraging, as I can’t recall a Falcons team that has found a way to claw themselves back into games week in and week out. This looks like a well-conditioned team that can fight for four full quarters with no visible drop off.
While that is certainly a plus, the concern lately is that they’re starting incredibly slowly, which is putting them in a position to have to fight back.
