It is arrow up based on the last few weeks (no touchdowns, O in total disarray, both improved on today) but we didn't just beat some playoff bound team.
That said, they may be able to improve slowly each week, but the test will come when we play better teams.
Falcons were 6-2 with the NFL's #4 offense. Not a great team by any means, but not a bad one either and they had the NFL's leader in rushing yards. He finished with 12 yards rushing.
It was a good win against an overrated but decent opponent.
Haha, yeah I got my wires crossed there. Makes the win more impressive than I first thought, though, so I'm happy to have egg on my face.
