Cowboys' Consistency
The Dallas Cowboys have been making waves with their impressive consistency, finishing 12-5 for three consecutive seasons. Led by their star quarterback, who topped all players in passing touchdowns last season with 36, the Cowboys are a team to watch. The quarterback's prowess is further highlighted by his ranking third in pass yards last season, amassing 4,516 yards. One notable moment from his career was the Week 4 matchup in 2020 against the Browns, where he threw for an astounding 502 yards and secured four touchdown passes.
Falcons' Strategic Moves
The Atlanta Falcons have been active during the offseason, making significant changes to their roster. The signing of quarterback Kirk Cousins promises to bolster their offensive strategies. The Falcons are also counting on the contributions of Bijan Robinson, who had an impressive rookie season with 976 rushing yards and 487 receiving yards, plus eight total touchdowns. In an additional move to strengthen their offense, Zac Robinson steps in as the new offensive coordinator.
Defensive Highlights
On the defensive side, Trey Hendrickson made a mark last season with 17.5 sacks. However, it was T.J. Watt who led all players in sacks, reinforcing his status as a dominant force on the field.
Strengthening the Offensive Line
The Falcons' offensive line is formidable, featuring two Pro Bowlers: Jake Matthews and Chris Lindstrom. This talented duo is expected to play a crucial role in protecting Kirk Cousins and creating opportunities for the Falcons' offense.
Standout Performances
Justin Jefferson's outstanding performance in Week 16 against the Giants last season is worth noting. He recorded 12 catches for 133 yards and a touchdown, showcasing his skill and reliability as a receiver.
As the new NFL season begins, fans have much to look forward to, both on the field and off. Whether rooting for the consistent Cowboys, the strategically revamped Falcons, or participating in the Super 6 game, the excitement of football is undeniable.
