"The Falcons couldn't have asked for a better opening drive. Zac Robinson's offense went 64 yards in three plays, one of which was a 50-yard touchdown by Bijan Robinson. From there, it was all downhill. The Falcons would go three straight drives without points and score one field goal the rest of the half. The second half featured late heroics from Michael Penix, but the Falcons run game and Zac Robinson's play calling couldn't match the quarterback's performance."
"We haven't seen much of the defensive free agent Atlanta prioritized signing, but he was all over the football field today. He played the run well, was used as a blitzer, and showed up in coverage, making open-field tackles and forcing pass breakups. He was the fast and versatile second-level defender he was advertised to be, and already looks like he could be the best haul of the offseason."
The Falcons opened the game with a 64-yard drive capped by a 50-yard Bijan Robinson touchdown, then went three straight drives without points and managed only one field goal the rest of the half. The second half included late heroics from Michael Penix, but the Falcons' run game and Zac Robinson's play-calling lagged behind the opposing quarterback's performance. The final drive ended with a missed field goal. Inside linebacker Deablos played strongly against the run, as a blitzer, and in coverage. Rookie Xavier Watts showed ball instincts, while the team was hampered by eight penalties for 55 yards.
