Transcript: Falcons Head Coach Press Conference




What were the keys to the team’s victory this week?

Stopping the fake Jonathan Taylor aka Charbonnet. Once the ground game was held in check we were able to force turnovers through the air and by forcing fumbles. The front 7 played great and set the tone for the entire game.







The team now has back to back wins, what could you attribute the recent success too?

We’ve gotten some lucky breaks and don’t want to live in the past. We believe our best brand of football is running the ball well, playing solid defense, and forcing turnovers. When we do those things well, we feel we can be in any game vs any opponent.



What is the status of Kyle Pitts and when is he set to return?

Kyle pitts is out for the next six weeks. It’s a tremendous blow to our team obviously. He was out for 6 weeks earlier this year and maybe he wasn’t fully up to game speed and health as again he is out for 6 weeks. He should be back for the week 18 season finale vs division rival Tampa.










RB Jonathan Taylor is so impressive, how hard he runs is so apparent. What else about his skill set makes him special?

Everything. He’s got amazing instincts and can find the running lanes when they don’t seem to be there. He falls forward routinely and always knows where the first down marker is. He could be an all pro wr if he chose to play on the outside.
