Outlook: A strong defense, returning starters at key offensive positions, and much more experience than recent seasons, are all good signs for Falcons coach Steve Victory. The Wide Receiving core is excellent with Connor Harrell and Michael Atmar back to go along with Tight End Luke Minett. Most of the offensive line is new, as are RBs Kevin Snodgrass and Harlan Lawal. A new FieldTurf surface has been installed, and though Victory cautions any optimism, noting that a difficult schedule is ahead, the team should be improved.
