Episode Details

The Atlanta Falcons faced a surprising setback, losing 20-17 to the New Orleans Saints in what many are calling a "trap game." Host Aaron Freeman breaks down the missed opportunities that prompted the team to come up short. Despite an improved performance from the Falcons defense in the second half, the offense and special teams failed to take advantage of numerous opportunities. Kicker Younghoe Koo missed three field goals and quarterback Kirk Cousins have a chaotic performance. 

Later, Aaron explains why he's not panicking over Koo or Kirk's performances. Finally, he discusses the defense's improved play, their ability to shut down the Saints offense in the second half and if that is a trend that can continue.
