The Atlanta Falcons’ offensive line has exceeded expectations thus far in 2015. The O-line is ranked as the league’s 10th best run blocking group and the 13th best in pass blocking. the unit has allowed just six sacks all year long and has a 73% power success rate for run blocking.

Mike Person was rated as the league’s number one center for week 4 while right guard Chris Chester was highly ranked as well. Jake Matthews has yet to allow a sack all year long and Andy Levitre has created some nice running lanes as well. Hats off to all five of these guys. They are doing a tremendous job. This very well could be the best O-line the team has had in five years.
