Last week, we took a look at the Falcons - Lions matchup the day before and wound up touching on several story lines that emerged during the first preseason game. Desmond Ridder did indeed show us flashes of his real potential, Matt Hennessy did indeed run with the starters and look just fine doing so, both lines had their moments good and bad, and the rookies largely did well in their opportunities.
This week, we’ll look ahead to Falcons - Jets and look for similar threads worth pulling on in a late night preseason game where the starters will likely receive just a quarter of playing time, if that.
