Falcons Defense Is Not A Starting-Caliber Unit
3 years agoThe Atlanta Falcons defense should remain far away from fantasy lineups this week as the team heads to Tampa Bay to play the defending Super Bowl champion Bucs. Last week, this team was lit up by sophomore QB Jalen Hurts to the tune of 264 yards and three touchdowns while also being gashed on the ground by the Eagles' rushing attack, which posted 173 total yards. Meanwhile, Tom Brady is coming off an epic Week 1 performance that saw him throw for 379 yards and four scores. The Bucs are loaded with a plethora of receiving weapons that can exploit this rather weak defense. It's best the Atlanta defense remains on waivers in Week 2.
