Falcons - Seahawks: One reason to feel confident and one reason to worry

A year ago, even though the Falcons didn’t win the game, Matt Schaub absolutely eviscerated the Seattle secondary, throwing for 460 yards and completing 75% of his passes. That was more passing yards in a single game than Matthew Rutledge Schaub had managed in a season since 2015, and he was only 80 yards off from matching his best season total since 2013. It was the kind of performance you wouldn’t have thought a 38-year-old Schaub could manage, and it was both a credit to the quarterback and a damning indictment of the Seahawks defense.
