The Atlanta Falcons’ Week 7 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers propelled them into first place in the NFC South, but it wouldn’t have been possible without a stellar effort from the defense.
The Falcons were able to overcome three lost fumbles in the red zone because the defense got big stops down the stretch. Atlanta’s secondary continues to play well and cornerback Dee Alford has been an important part of the unit’s progress this season.
Alford was mic’d up for Sunday’s win over the Buccaneers. Check it out, as shared by the team’s YouTube channel below.
The Falcons will look to keep the momentum going in Week 8 when they face the Tennessee Titans on the road. The Titans are coming off a bye week but may not have their starting quarterback.
Check out Atlanta’s Week 8 depth chart and updated 53-man roster. The team’s first injury report will come out following practice on Wednesday.
