Falcons second-year cornerback Robert Alford had four penalties called against him in the New York Giants game.
“We’ve got to make sure that Robert and all of our defensive players understand how the game is going to be called and what is defensive holding and what is illegal contact,” Falcons coach Mike Smith said. “Again, this is a point of emphasis. It’s been going on all through the preseason and has continued through the regular season.”
Smith put the blame on the coaching staff.
“Obviously, we haven’t done a good enough job as a coaching staff and I haven’t done a good enough job in letting Robert Alford know how the game is going to be officiated and what he needs to do,” Smith said.
