Falcons given playoff ceiling, basement floor for 2023 by ESPN

Is Atlanta’s ceiling stratospheric in 2023, in light of all their huge improvements? Has the floor been raised from subterranean to ground level thanks to progress, both from the roster and a more experienced coaching staff?

Those are questions we’re all asking ourselves about this team, in one way or another, though I think most of us are thinking (and daydreaming) more about the ceiling than the floor. ESPN inevitably weighed in on that question, and they gave Atlanta the highest ceiling in the division (11-6, shared with the Saints) and the second-lowest floor (5-12 and tied with the Panthers, just above the 4-13 Buccaneers).
