Analyzing Desmond Ridder, Arthur Smith in loss to Lions | Falcons Final Whistle

Scott Bair, Tori McElhaney and Terrin Waack break down what went wrong in the Falcons' 20-6 loss to Detroit in Week 3 and why they weren't able to play the complementary football required to beat a team like the Lions. The offense couldn't find rhythm in the passing game and didn't have a run game to fall back on, creating a stagnant attack that struggled despite the score being close until the end. They also take a look at what must improve as the Falcons head into a crucial Week 4 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London.
