Falcons had even less of a pass rush and Brees didn't carve up our D like Matt did to the Saints. 


Falcons actually generated pretty good pressure.

Brees was just 10/11 in those situations.

We lost the game by missing 23 tackles. For reference, we missed 77 last season.

Matt Ryan was a beast yesterday. I didn't know he could move like that

I don't think it's illogical to say that the Saints defense has a higher ceiling than the Falcons. Our lack of pass rush was surprising

Well, to be honest, really only Paul Soliai got any real pressure. Pushed yall center back 5 yards every play.
However, we still ended the day with 0 sacks and 0 qb hits. Our pass rush was almost not there.

I don't think anyone did. It is a good thing he worked on his feet though. Besides Peyton, all the top qb's in the league (Brees, Rodgers) are quick on their feet.

This.

Either Rob Ryan or somebody on the defensive staff has complete egg on their face as far as game planning goes and trying to ficus on turnovers too much. Stop playing the safety's 40 yards off the LOS, help out the trenches in creating pressure and finish tackles; then the turnovers will come.
