What if the Falcons win/lose against the New Orleans Saints part 2

The Atlanta Falcons were mathematically eliminated from playoff contention with their Week 17 defeat against the Bills in Buffalo. That was always going to be an incredibly difficult game for the Birds to win, but they held their own and even led at halftime. A Kyle Pitts hamstring injury right before the half and the Bills settling into their offense kept the Falcons from keeping their season alive, however.

Sitting at 7-9, Atlanta moves into the NFL’s inaugural Week 18 with a rivalry matchup on tap against the New Orleans Saints Saints. And while they are no longer in the playoff picture, there is still everything to play for.
