The Falcons’ offense struggled all day to score points but managed to pull out a 3-point victory on a rain-soaked afternoon in Tennessee. While the stats looked solid on the day, they were unable to score points. The Falcons had 10 days to prepare for the Titans and didn’t do a good job of executing on crucial plays.

The Falcons’ offensive line was called for several holding calls that brought big runs back from Devonta Freeman, and Ryan was unable to connect on some big third and fourth down plays to keep the chains moving. All-in-all, the Falcons need to improve if they want beat good teams.
