Well, isn’t this a surprise? The Atlanta Falcons get back to .500 in a heated rivalry game against the New Orleans Saints that came down to the wire.
While the Falcons squandered a big lead, the legend that is Matt Ryan lead the team back to get the win. Although it certainly wasn’t ideal that it had to come down to the wire, scoring 27 points against the Saints defense was certainly noteworthy.
This coming Sunday, the Falcons have another tough task ahead going against the 6-2 Dallas Cowboys. The good news is that there is a good level of familiarity with the Cowboys’ defensive scheme under former head coach Dan Quinn.
