The Atlanta Falcons can take advantage of a Rams team that struggled in week 1

The Atlanta Falcons were able to dominate their opponent in week one — discounting the final few drives — while the Los Angeles Rams were the ones being dominated in week one.

It is weird to say that a team coming off of a seven-win season looked better than the Super Bowl champions in the first week, but that was the case. Obviously, you have to take into account the opponents as the Bills are a much better team than the Saints — too bad those teams don’t play this season because the Saints would get destroyed.

The thrashing that the Buffalo Bills gave the Los Angeles Rams resulted in a final score of 31-10, as the Rams had numerous players and positions that struggled.

Now, they are hoping that they are playing a Falcons team that looks more like the fourth-quarter team as opposed to the first three quarters in week one. If the Atlanta Falcons can come out and play like they did against New Orleans, and, the big one, finish the game, then they can win, especially if they take advantage of a few positions that the Rams are concerned about.
