The first game of the 2020 NFL season is nearly here, with the Chiefs and Texans kicking things off tonight on Thursday Night Football. Our chosen team also has a game fast-approaching, with the Falcons taking on the Seahawks in Week 1. These two franchises have become perennial rivals due to the connection between Dan Quinn and Pete Carroll, and the tendency for the two to meet each other in the playoffs—although that hasn’t happened much in the past two years.
While we haven’t gotten any preseason games to judge these squads off of, we can take a look at how Seattle and Atlanta performed in 2019 to give us some idea of what we can expect this season.
