The second snap of the game for the Tua Tagovailoa-led Atlanta Falcon offense was a botched snap...Tua's offense was given two drives, featured one first down and three completions (all to Kyle Pitts) for 22 yards...It wasn't a game where the former University of Alabama quarterback created any separation from the still shelved Penix, but given the circumstances at the tackle and skill positions it also wasn't a downright turnover filled disaster.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Tagovailoa's two-drive sample: one first down, three completions, 22 yards; offense out of sync.

Starting quarterback's offense was given two drives, featured one first down and three completions (all to Kyle Pitts) for 22 yards, with the unit looking out of sync. The second snap of the game was a botched snap that served as a harbinger of things to come. While the circumstances—missing Bijan Robinson and Drake London, and struggling offensive line play—mitigated the performance, Tagovailoa did not create any separation from still-shelved Michael Penix and did not produce a turnover-filled disaster but also did not inspire confidence.
