The Atlanta Falcons have outplayed their opponents for large stretches of their first two games of the season. Despite dominating the Saints for three quarters of Week 1, and fighting back from a 28-3 deficit against the defending Super Bowl champions in Week 2, the Falcons remain winless entering their Week 3 matchup in Seattle.
Obviously, there’s plenty of blame to go around for the team’s 0-2 start, but quarterback Marcus Mariota deserves his share. The former No. 2 overall pick had the ball in his hands with a chance to close both games and came up short.
