As they've done throughout the season, the Atlanta Falcons have earned themselves an early advantage in Super Bowl LI.

Capitalizing on a forced fumble from Deion Jones to end a promising New England Patriots drive, the high-powered Falcons offense completed a five-play, 71-yard drive with this 5-yard touchdown from Devonta Freeman.

Freeman is leading the way for a highly effective running game, as the short score gave him an impressive 71 yards on his first six carries.
