Here’s a look at what happened in N.F.L. Week 7:
There was no epic collapse for the Atlanta Falcons this time, as the rematch of last season’s Super Bowl was completely devoid of drama, with the New England Patriots walking away with an easy 23-7 victory.
The win improved New England’s record to 5-2, while dropping Atlanta to 3-3.
Coming into the game, the Falcons were unwilling to rehash the team’s failure to hold onto a 28-3 lead in Super Bowl LI, but they should have been focusing more on their team’s offensive struggles.
