A Jalen Ramsey end zone interception sealed a nail-biting victory for the Los Angeles Rams as the Atlanta Falcons came dangerously close to pulling off an incredible win in SoFi Stadium. The Atlanta Falcons fought hard against the Los Angeles Rams, but their second half comeback fell short. Atlanta falls to 0-2 in the NFC South, and they will stay on the west coast, facing the Seattle Seahawks on the road next Sunday.

The Atlanta Falcons suffered an embarrassing week one loss to their arch rivals the New Orleans Saints. Atlanta inexcusably blew a 16 point fourth quarter lead to break their fans hearts once again. It is the 8th time since Superbowl 51, the Falcons have blown a double digit lead.

The Atlanta Falcons face their first AFC opponent of the season in the 2-1 Cleveland Browns. Kevin Stefanski's side have had a extra three days to prepare for this, after defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers in week 3's Thursday night football. The Browns are playing without Deshaun Watson until week 11, due to suspension, so Jacoby Brissett is their quarterback following the offseason trade of Baker Mayfield to Carolina. Cleveland really should be 3-0, but a late collapse in week two against the Jets, where they allowed New York to recover an onside kick, saw them inexplicably lose after leading by 13 points with just 90 seconds left. This could be a high scoring game, as it is a meeting of two top 10 scoring offenses. Head to Head Browns D vs Falcons O It'll be a match up of strength vs strength as the leagues 5th best rush attack in Atlanta goes up against Cleveland's 7th best rush defense which is allowing just 83.7 yards rushing per game.
