Last year, the Falcons scored 32 points and allowed 54 in their first two games, with one close win over the Eagles and one blowout loss to the Vikings. This year, they’ve scored 64 points, which is double their 2019 total...but they’ve also allowed 78 points and are 0-2. The offense certainly looks sharper under Dirk Koetter minus hiccups and frustrations, but the defense somehow looks even worse.
Some of that is on the caliber of opponent, as the Seahawks are obviously in for a terrific year and Dak Prescott is far more talented than his so-so week against the Rams would’ve suggested.
