The Falcons have found themselves near the top with a familiar foe once again, as Pro Football Focus tabbed two players from each team to its offensive team of the week -- most in the NFL.
Atlanta wide receiver Julio Jones and center Alex Mack were considered the best at their positions, while New England quarterback Tom Brady and tight end Rob Gronkowski joined them on the list.
Jones caught five passes for yards in the Falcons’ 34-23 win over the Packers on Sunday night, and Pro Football Focus considered Mack the overall offensive player of the week. as the highest-graded player on his side of the ball.
Pro Football Focus wrote, "Alex Mack makes the team of the week for the second consecutive round of games, and this week is named PFF's offensive player of the week for his performance against the Packers. Mack didn't allow a single pressure across 32 pass blocking snaps , but it was his work in the run game springing Falcons backs on zone runs that was his most masterful work."
