Under head coach June Jones, the Falcons' run and shoot offense was heavily imbalanced in 1994, in favor of the passing game. Atlanta's passing yardage (4,112 yards) was third in the NFC, and fifth in the league overall; but their rushing yards (1,249, 78.1 yards per game) were last in the league. They had by far the fewest rushing attempts in the league in 1994, with only 330 all year.Pro-Football-Reference.com: 1994 NFL Standings, Team & Offensive Statistics The Falcons started 4–2 in their first six games, but their season was ruined by going 3–7 afterwards.
