Atlanta Falcons vs. Lions: Live Stream, game info
By Randy Gurzi
The Atlanta Falcons take on the Detroit Lions at Ford Field on Sunday, September 24. It’s Week 3 in the 2017 NFL Season and here is how to watch the game.
After a 2-0 start, the Atlanta Falcons look to make it three in a row in Week 3. Not only will they be going for win No. 3 on the season, but also the third straight against an NFC North opponent. Atlanta defeated the Chicago Bears on the road in Week 1 and the Green Bay Packers in Week 2.
Now they again head out on the road, this time going to Michigan to play the Detroit Lions. Led by former Georgia quarterback Matthew Stafford, the Lions are also off to a fast start as they own a 2-0 record after beating the Arizona Cardinals in Week 1 and the New York Giants last week.

Each team features a high-powered passing attack led by a talented quarterback. Stafford was working well with his Lions and was in the discussion for MVP last season before a hand injury slowed him down as the season ended.Of course, the award in 2016 went to Matt Ryan, the star quarterback for the Falcons.
Defensively they each are trying to improve, but Atlanta is hurting in that area with edge rusher Vic Beasley, Jr. out with a hamstring tear. The hope will be that rookie defensive end Takkarist Mckinley will step up in his absence and bring the pressure. In this one, the Dirty Birds will need it to stay undefeated.
Tune in to see if Atlanta can keep rolling in Week 3.
