Your 2016 Atlanta Falcons folks.
By any measurable (that I can think of and or find at least) they are at the bottom. Funny is Carolina is a close 2nd. New Orleans offsets themselves by being top 15 in Return Coverages.
Atlanta: (League Ranking)
YAC allowed - 32nd
KO Ret Coverage- 21st
Punt Ret Coverage- 26th
In contrast NE is the best.
YAC allowed- 1st
KO Ret coverage- 3rd
Punt Ret coverage - 2nd
Now the Offensive YAC leaders in the NFL
1. New Orleans
2. Atlanta
3. NE
So once again you have the Number 3 YAC offense against the 32nd ranked defense in YAC allowed; and the more evenly matched 2nd ranked YAC offense against the number 1 ranked defense in YAC allowed.
Also find it odd, that a Dan Quinn defense would be this bad at tackling given how good Seattle tackles and how popular their Hawk tackling video is among youth and HS football. I know I have to watch the video and take the test every year.
Just some things that I noticed that does not seem to get much discussion in the non-stop how will NE stop the Falcons Offense hyperbole.
