Falcons - Titans Takeaways: Desmond Ridder sits and Atlanta struggles in loss

Every time the Atlanta Falcons seem poised to take a step forward, they take one back. After they captured the NFC South with a road victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 7, the Falcons looked mostly sloppy in a 28-23 loss to the Tennessee Titans.

There were some pretty important developments in Sunday’s game, including a quarterback swap for Atlanta. Taylor Heinicke started the second half for the Falcons and sparked the offense for the first time. Did Heinicke do enough to make the change permanent?

The most pressing concern for Atlanta at the moment is its 4-4 record.
