5) The Atlanta Falcons still need a no.2 wide receiver

The whole gang was back against the Indianapolis Colts, but things didn’t go that much better. Leonard Hankerson had a decent game, but a crucial drop with under a minute left in the game just might have cost the Falcons a shot at a field goal.

Justin Hardy still isn’t getting the ball as much as he deserves and Roddy White is still pretty bad. Matt Ryan forced passes to White but did manage to find Julio Jones a lot. Jones caught nine passes for 160 yards while Hankerson only caught four passes for 36 yards.

The Falcons will need to address the wide receiver position after the season is over without a doubt.
