The Atlanta Falcons showed us some good things in their frustrating loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The offensive line appeared to have gelled somewhat, allowing two sacks, but opening some holes and keeping Matt Schaub relatively clean.
Granted, the Seahawks defensive line is almost as suspect as the Atlanta Falcons’ front, but the only real issues today were Alex Mack‘s newfound proclivity for holding and Kaleb McGary‘s rookie lumps.
The defense had two consecutive three-and-outs against a team with a potent offense and their backs against the wall. The running game wasn’t spectacular but showed some flashes, and allowed the offense a balance in the second half.
