A midseason review of the Falcons' performance so far

The season preview that I had posted several weeks ago seemed popular, so I thought that you guys and gals may be interested in this post as well.

Good job

Pretty quick read, but it points out the general strengths and weaknesses of the team very well. You’re right about the winning record skewing the pass/run defense yards a bit. The “bend but don’t break” defense is shown in full effect here, with the big difference in points compared to yards. Thanks for the link.

Thanks!

I appreciate the kind comments. Although my first team is the Steelers, I’m pretty happy to see the Falcons start to put together a solid team. I think they’ll be elite in the coming years, as Ryan continues to develop.
