2 winnable games and Falcons are 0-2
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Say what you want about quarterback Joey Harrington, the Falcons let up seven more sacks in Sunday’s 13-7 loss to Jacksonville. That’s 13 sacks in two games. That puts the Falcons on track to give up 104 sacks this season.
Clearly, the Falcons have trouble on the offensive line. Bobby Petrino’s new offense won’t work if opponents keep getting to Harrington. And rest assured, future opponents will keep coming until the Falcons prove they can stop the pass rush.
Two winnable games are over and the Falcons stand at 0-2. Next up is Carolina, Houston (led by one Matt Schaub) and Tennessee.
