The Seattle Seahawks have a long history of dominating the Atlanta Falcons. The last time they met, in September of 2020, Seattle won in a dog fight (38-25) after the Falcons tried to make a huge comeback late in the fourth quarter.

Sunday, they meet at Lumen Field to try and make a statement. After a terrifying 0-2 start to the season, fans will find it hard to believe the dirty birds will have a winning record moving forward. Can they shock the world and defeat Seattle?

It would be a victory keeping the Falcons in the wildcard hunt early this season and pushing the team back in the right direction. Here are three key factors that can contribute to the Falcons’ success in week three in Seattle.
