Atlanta’s weak defense

Linebacker Curtis Lofton is bored with being converted by the opponents on the Atlanta Falcons.
“It’s a letdown because we put a lot of work into it,” Lofton said Thursday. “When they get it, you know, everybody feels like they’re letting each other down. We’ve just got to keep fighting, and when third down comes around again, we’ve just got to get off the field.”
The reason why the Falcons have lost three games in the four battles may rasorted to not being able to get timely stops.
“Well, we’re not very good,” coach Mike Smithsaid. “It’s plain and simple. Statistically we’re not very good on third down.”
If you allowed your opponents to convert nearly 53 percent of 38 third-down attempts ,it will ba a sure thing to lose the game.
Atlanta has a long way to go to strengthen his defence and show his value to the fans with falcons jerseys.
