The Falcons’ offensive line on Thursday night against the Jets was ... well, it was offensive.
They let Matt Ryan get sacked three times and absorb eight hits. At times they looked like five damn turnstiles out there on the field. But it’s not necessarily time to panic.
Thursday’s game was a bit different, because while the Falcons trotted out a standard vanilla preseason game plan, the Jets and defensive coordinator Gregg Williams were relentlessly blitzing like it was a damn Super Bowl.
Jake Matthews spoke to reporters after the loss to the Jets about the number of blitz packages New York threw at them on Thursday.
