This week’s big question: Can the Falcons beat the Browns at their own game?

Through the first three weeks, the Falcons and the Browns are the only two teams to score at least 26 points in each game. Not the Chiefs. Not the Bills. Not the Packers. The ones led by Marcus Mariota and Jacoby Brissett; those are the teams with this distinction.

I bring that up because it speaks to a level of consistency that both teams have shown offensively to start the season. Nowhere has that been truer than on first down for the Falcons, who rank second by a slim margin with 0.191 Expected Points Added (EPA) per play.
