‘Thursday Night Kickoff’ on FOX 5 Atlanta: What magic can the Falcons pull to make the playoffs?

I’m not going to sugarcoat this: It’s been a rough season for the Falcons.

They’re off to a 1-4 start, which is the worst we’ve seen from this team in some time. The defense has been atrocious, and the offense seems to only be able to get things done at home — which is too bad, as they only play eight games in the friendly confines of the Benz. The offensive line, which had been a strength, is struggling. Julio Jones hasn’t scored a single touchdown, much to the chagrin of fantasy players everywhere.
