Falcons vs. Cowboys Game Info
Atlanta Falcons (0-1, 0-0 Away) vs. Dallas Cowboys (0-1, 0-0 Home)
Date:Â Sunday, Sept. 20, 2020
Time:Â 1:00 p.m. EST
Venue: AT&T Stadium — Arlington, TX
Coverage:Â FOX
Matt Ryan put on a show in Week 1 against the Seattle Seahawks, passing for 450 yards. Again, this team lost despite Ryan throwing for 450 yards. Yes, it’s Week 2, but the seat of defensive-minded Dan Quinn is heating up.Â
The Falcons defense clearly prepared only to stop the Seattle running game, and they did that. However, they allowed Russell Wilson to put up 38 points, as he had a league-high 97% adjusted completion rate. They need to be sharper, facing a Cowboys offense that is loaded with talent.Â
While this offense had its struggles in a couple areas, there is no doubting the talent they have. Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup and CeeDee Lamb make up one of the most talented receiving trios in the league, while Ezekiel Elliott continues to play like one of the best running backs in the NFL. However, the offensive line needs to perform better, as do Dak Prescott and Mike McCarthy.Â
This defense has already suffered a couple of severe injuries to their linebacking corps that will affect them this week. Leighton Vander Esch will miss a couple months due to a broken collarbone. Meanwhile, veteran Sean Lee is recovering from sports hernia surgery. Their absence will surely be felt on Sunday, and it puts even more pressure on the pass rushers to control the game.
