The Falcons' Defense Isn't What It Used to Be.

This game was evidence of two things to me, that this Atlanta offense is a pain in the ass for any team in the NFL to contend with. The second thing I think it's evidence of is that defense, elite, shut down defense just doesn't exist. You don't just show up with the 85 Bears and shut everybody down every single week. It's just not possible in today's NFL anymore. Unless maybe you assemble one of those all-time great Legion of Boom, Denver defenses of what it was 2015.
