"They used their tight ends much more heavily, with a major workload for Charlie Woerner and a guest appearance from Teagan Quitoriano, who is clearly TE3 when the Falcons need blocking help. They lightly used a third receiver, with McCloud getting limited work in that capacity. And they ran the hell out of the ball, predictability be damned, and dared Minnesota to stop them, with Tyler Allgeier getting 16 carries on 22 snaps."
"The Falcons don't always live up to their promises, but when Natie Ollie said this group would attack and rotate frequently up front, he was not joking. Atlanta's rotation is pretty evenly split and it's leading to great outcomes, with Atlanta piling up six sacks on the night and once again getting enough pressure to rattle a quarterback. This being a young one in J.J. McCarthy, it led to turnovers, too."
Atlanta implemented a plan to exploit a depleted Vikings linebacker group by re-establishing the run and leaning on tight-end blocking. Charlie Woerner received a major workload and Teagan Quitoriano served as a blocking TE3 while McCloud saw limited third-receiver snaps. Tyler Allgeier carried frequently (16 carries on 22 snaps) as the offense accepted predictability to move the ball. Defensive line rotation was frequent and balanced, producing six sacks and enough pressure to force turnovers against a young quarterback. The secondary and linebacker corps showed stability with high snap counts for key contributors.
