Andy Bunker, host at 92.9 The Game in Atlanta previews Seahawks/Falcons on Sunday. They chat about both teams' offensive and defensive strengths and weaknesses. The conversation touches on Kirk Cousins' reception in Atlanta and Michael Penix's role in the Falcons' preparation.
Falcons are led by former Washington head coach Jimmy Lake as their defensive coordinator, however, Atlanta has been quite weak on defense, something Seattle in Andy’s opinion will take advantage of. Both agree that Sunday’s will be a shootout.
