Since they last faced a team from the AFC North on the road, the Atlanta Falcons have made considerable strides in reviving their season. What seemed like a lost team after getting trounced by Pittsburgh is currently in the thick of the NFC playoff conversation following three consecutive wins. For all of their injuries, Dan Quinn’s group continues to show tremendous fortitude in overcoming numerous early-season setbacks. Most teams would crumble in their situation. Unlike most teams, the Falcons are battle-tested and well equipped to be competitive against any opponent.
They have an excellent opportunity to build on their most impressive win of the season against one of the most dysfunctional teams in the league.
