The Atlanta Falcons earned a very important win against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, so we all get to be happy for at least one week. Those are the rules in the NFL, where every week is a rollercoaster ride and the losing fan bases are left to sort through the fallout.
Fortunately, the Falcons are among the victors in Week 12, and they now sit in the driver’s seat once again in the NFC South—the Alan of conference divisions.
The road ahead is as easy as it’s always been for Atlanta if the team can stay out of its own way.
