Falcons Get Horned By The Rams, Drop to 4-7

It was another tough week for the Falcons as they lose to the Rams and fall to 4-7 on the season.  

Cam Akers has emerged as one of the top running backs in the league this season and he gashed the Falcons over and over again.

Jimmy G was hot and cold all game.  One minute he was threading the needle to J Jomes and H Hurst in the endzone for tds and the next he was missing 8 yard curl routes by 4 yards for pick 6's the other way.

The defense was able to create any pressure on Goff who seemingly found C Kupp whenever he wasn't handing the ball off to Akers.

The front four would tackle Akers for a 4 yard loss on one play and give up a 40 yard run on the next.

The only good news was J Jones who was thought to be lost for 6 weeks, returned to action after only missing 2 games.  Maybe watching R Gage ball out for 2 games aided the healing process.

Next up: Rematch with the Buccaneers who are now under a new coach.
