Paying running-backs in a passing league elite player money no longer makes sense and the Atlanta Falcons are stuck with one of the worst contracts in the NFL.
There is a saying in football – The game is won and lost in the trenches. While the Atlanta Falcons have done their part over the last few years to strengthen the defensive line, not much can be said about their efforts on the offensive side. It is not rocket science to know that a team can not win consistently if they don’t have the line to protect the QB and open lanes for the running game.
