The Atlanta Falcons saw a slight drop in the NFL power rankings after suffering an unexpected event to the New Orleans Saints, who were on the road last week.
It was one of the biggest surprises of the weekend as the Saints snapped a seven-game losing streak in the first game of the Darren Rizzi era. A slow start and self-inflicted injuries hampered the Falcons head coach in a game He himself said Atlanta had several chances to win.
The team missed three field goals in Sunday's three-point loss in a game that Younghoe Koo would soon like to forget.
“He had an off day. It happens,” Morris said of Koo in his postgame press conference. “Shooters shoot often. He went out there and made his shots and didn’t make them.”
Here's a look at where the Falcons rank in various national media outlets' rankings compared to last week:
The Falcons will look to get back on the right side of the win column when they take on the Denver Broncos, next on the schedule, at Empower Field at Mile High on Sunday at 4:05 p.m. ET.
The Broncos are also looking to redeem themselves after coming off a 16-14 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, which snapped a two-game losing streak for Bo Nix and Co.
