Atlanta Falcons record pair of sacks in Week 1 loss

The Atlanta Falcons D/ST recorded a solid performance, though a middling fantasy outing, after conceding 18 points and recording a pair of sacks in their Week 1 loss.

Fantasy Impact:

With revamped defensive talent, Atlanta was a classic example of a bend-but don't-break unit, allowing under 300 total yards and conceding zero touchdowns. They weren't done any favors by the offense, however, which led only two scoring drives and forced three turnovers. There should be better outings in the future, but a Week 2 matchup with a hot Philadelphia offense does not inspire confidence.
