Week 16 saw the Atlanta Falcons continue their run after a solid all-around performance against Jacksonville, 24-12. The Atlanta Falcons had over 100 yards on the ground and almost 400 yards through the air.
It was 14-0 before the jaguars even had the ball.
Along the way, two offensive weapons break records and extend streaks.
Matt Ryan now becomes second all-time in the NFL for most consecutive 4,000 passing yards with nine straight seasons.
