Regardless of yielding a bunch of yards, the protection exploded within the second half, limiting the Falcons to only a single landing on their opening drive. Seattle got here into this match-up with only a single turnover within the earlier 5 video games, however the protection would get three takeaways in three consecutive drives on this one. The celebration bought began with a Boye Mafe strip sack which resulted in a Derick Corridor landing, adopted by Julian Love and Coby Bryant every selecting off Kirk Cousins.
There are nonetheless loads of issues to scrub up, however we’ll deal with the one factor that issues: Being again on the successful aspect of issues.
