The Falcons have been their usual roller coaster-y selves this year, starting the year 0-5, going 3-1 into the bye to build a little hope and anticipation, and then crashing in spectacular fashion thanks to an ugly post-bye loss to the Saints. Where they go from here is anyone’s guess, though optimism will probably be hard to come by from now until January 2021.
Next up is a return home to play the Raiders. Las Vegas is 6-4 for the second consecutive year and looks like a pretty good football team right now, albeit one with Falconsesque weaknesses in the secondary and as a pass rush.
