He’s ready to uncork it, like on a nice 12-yard completion to Kyle Pitts in the first quarter to convert the team’s first 3rd down. While expected, it was great seeing Heinicke playing with plenty of zip on the football. Taylor Heinicke looks like a backup quarterback In year three of a three year plan, the Falcons, with seemingly no idea what it is or where it is going, fall to the Minnesota Vikings 31-28. ![]() Sunday’s game went down the final drive, with the Falcons unable to shake a Vikings team forced into playing a quarterback who had just landed with the team days before. It helped the Falcons were playing against a mediocre Minnesota team at home missing its starting quarterback. There was hope a new quarterback would provide a spark, and Smith turned to veteran passer Taylor Heinicke in the place of the uneven second-year player Desmond Ridder. Sunday’s loss against the Vikings was one of the ugliest, despite the score, and one where fans continue to see the same problems. Outside of a few impressive performances, like stretches against Green Bay and Carolina, Atlanta has been playing some ugly offensive football.
