It's bad.
R.I.P., 2015 Atlanta Falcons. If that sounds overly dramatic, so be it. If the Falcons somehow, improbably push into the playoffs, I welcome you to haul this article out and laugh at me. They certainly look dead to me.
The team is now all but officially done in the NFC playoff race, is what I'm getting at. After three straight weeks of must-win games, the Falcons have exactly zero wins to show for it, and they will play out the string hoping to find some reason for optimism in 2016.
Everything that can be said has been said over the last several weeks, as a once-promising season turned into a quagmire which was also on fire.
