We felt pretty good at this time last week, following a victory in New York against the Giants. The Falcons of course followed that up by doing what they usually do — giving the fanbase a punch in the gut in the game immediately after to destroy all good will.
The Falcons blew a fourth quarter lead against the Washington Football Team to fall to 1-3 on the season. That’s put their backs against the wall in the early stages of the season — something they’re all too familiar with. The past two years, they pretty much laid down and died at this point.
