I’m calling it now: Sunday’s game will make or break Atlanta’s season. Their odds of making the playoffs drop significantly if they fall to 3-3, especially in the likely situation where the Carolina Panthers beat the Chicago Bears. This should not only be a revenge game, but Atlanta needs to get back on track after a few duds.
What could be helpful is the New England Patriots defense is objectively terrible. What’s even more helpful is they are already down two cornerbacks while the Atlanta Falcons get Mohamed Sanu back.
