Falcons and Patriots Have Lots of Respect For Each Other Ahead of Super Bowl 51

Super Bowl 51 will feature the NFL’s highest scoring offense in Atlanta going up against the NFL’s stingiest defense in New England.
Only time will tell if the game will play out that way, but the Falcons and Patriots are showing a lot of respect for each other before they head out for Houston.
Mr Hoodie Bill Belichick knows what the Falcons offense has under the hood.
Lots of playmakers scattered across the field.
Said Patriots head coach Bill Belichick:”Well they are very explosive offensively. I mean every guy that gets the ball can score a touchdown from 80 yards away or more.”
Said Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan:”We’re different than we were last year. We’ve got a lot of different players. We’ve had some guys that have come in and really helped us. You talk about guys like Taylor Gabriel, Mohamed Sanu, and Aldrick Robinson. And I think that the guys that have been in the system for two years are a lot more comfortable. I think those are two reasons we have played a little bit better.”
Ryan mentioned Mohamed Sanu. When Sanu was with the Bengals, he threw a couple of touchdown passes, and Belichick is well aware of that.
Said Belichick:”We know he can do it. And look, this is the kind of game where a team could be working on a play like that all year. We’re running out of games, so.”
With quarterbacks like Matt Ryan and Tom Brady, is it fair to expect a shoot-out?
Reporter:”Is is too simple to look at it that way?”
Said Ryan:”Yeah. I think there are two pretty good defenses too. The Patritos lead the league in points allowed, so I mean their defense is really, really good.”
Brady says Atlanta’s defense factors into the Falcons explosive offense.
Said Brady:”They create a lot of turnovers, and when you give this offense the ball more times than they are supposed to get it, they put touchdowns on the board. We know we’re playing against a great team. This team has beaten everybody. They’re just a great football team. Offensively, defensively, special teams, and they are well-coached. It’s a great football team we are playing, so we’re going to have to play our best game of the year.”
