FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- The Atlanta Braves won their first World Series title since 1995 on Tuesday night, and another team in town is using that as both inspiration and motivation.
The Atlanta Falcons.
Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan said his team has been talking about the Braves' run to the title since the playoffs began and saw similarities in the positions the two teams were in at midseason.
"Everybody kind of recognizes how they've played and what they've gone through this year and how it parallels similar to how we started this season," Ryan said.
