Notes: The Falcons needed to come out in the preseason with a strong PossessionPoints performance in order to tip the matchup for their first game with the Vikings in their favor. We are not fully convinced but there are signs that the Falcons may not be in as much team disarray as the national media seems to be indicating. Time will tell.
