Atlanta_FalconsThe Atlanta Falcons Defense will be in question as they prepare for their second game of the preseason. The Falcons will face the new run oriented Rams Friday night in St. Louis.

There were gaping holes in the defense last week as the Falcons lost the home opener. At the end of the fourth quarter with the clock ticking down the Detroit Lions won on a 47 yard field goal 27-26.

Falcons to watch

It will be interesting to watch how some of the Falcons fare Friday night including Thomas Brown, a flashy special teams guy and cornerback Christopher Owens. The big story will be the play of the big defensive tackles Peria Jerry and Vance Walker.

Quarterbacks Ryan vs. Bulger

This is a great match up, the veteran Marc Bulger going against the young and talented Matt Ryan. Look for Bulger to try to prove himself as he prepares for a make or break season. Watch how Matt Ryan does in the red zone, he should see a lot more snaps against the Rams Friday night.
