What to know about the Falcons - Buccaneers matchup in Week 12

The last two weeks were tough matchups on paper for the Falcons, and Atlanta put up 55 points and allowed just 12 en route to two straight wins. This week, they head home and will face their easiest matchup in a long time, with the lowly Buccaneers coming to town.

These two teams are heading in opposite directions. The Falcons have aggravatingly gotten it going too late to save their season and look like one hell of a spoiler the rest of the way, with the defense finally clicking and the offense showing enough life to keep them ahead.
