The Falcons have largely succeeded in their mission to ease the burden from Penix’s shoulders, and therein rests their offense’s
superpower.... Stefanski credited offensive coordinator Tommy Rees for the game plan and said rushing success is an 11-man operation. Penix made the right checks. The offensive line made key blocks. So, too, did the tight ends and receivers, who Dotson said “block our asses off” on a weekly basis.
It was a neat design from Falcons offensive coordinator Tommy Rees, and Dotson wanted the team to run it all night. At long last, his wish came true....Dotson entered Monday night with only four catches for 41 yards in the first three games of the season. He acknowledged it was a challenging start, but with a pair of explosive receptions in New Orleans, he bore the fruit of his labor and capitalized on his opportunities....Dotson said his performance “for sure” helped his confidence, and as the Falcons’ No. 2 receiver behind London, his ascent is a key aspect of the team’s already-humming offense finding another gear.
