Falcons vs. Jets recap: A jolly good win in London

You don’t get bonus points for beating a team if they’re bad, or if you happen to be down a few key starters on offense and defense. All you get is a win, but those wins mean a lot, and they’re even sweeter when you can get them in spite of adverse circumstances.

No Calvin Ridley, no Russell Gage, no Erik Harris, no Isaiah Oliver, no Avery Williams, no Marlon Davison, no Cameron Nizialek. The Falcons were down a few major contributors and useful players in this one, but they made it work with a well-rounded effort from both the offense and defense.
