In this episode, we first looked back at the Patriots victory against the Jets. Later on, we previewed the upcoming game for the Pats against the Falcons.

While it is still a work in progress, Atlanta’s defense has noticeably improved from the porous sieve that they were the last couple of years. The Falcon offensive line suffered through more than their share of injuries last year; that group being healthy has led to a much improved offense, especially running the ball
