Falcons' defense allows just two touchdowns in Week 17 loss to Saints

The Falcons' defense conceded only 20 points to the Saints and forced one fumble in the loss. Saints' quarterback Drew Brees had all day to throw all afternoon with no pass rush and helped lead the Saints to 390 total yards. Considering the tough matchup, one fantasy point scored for the Atlanta D/ST isn't all that bad.

Fantasy Impact:

The Falcons defense sure has a lot to improve on, but it wasn't a complete nightmare under new head coach Dan Quinn in 2015. The Falcons D/ST will finish the season as the 20th-ranked fantasy scoring D/ST in standard formats on the year.
