Wow, you guys sound terrified of the Falcons................when exactly did they become this juggernaut?

They have lost 5 games, including 3 losses at home (one of those was to the freaking Chargers, the same team that just lost to Cleveland).

They have allowed 28 or more points in 8 games, they literally cant play D unless they are playing the freaking 49ers.

So we are talking about a team that allows 4 TDs or more worth of points in 8/15 games and you guys are hiding under the bed?

I am not afraid of Atlanta, Matt Ryan 1-4 in the playoffs, offensive juggernauts with bad defenses rarely win big in the playoffs, and when you're talking about doing it on the road I bet it's rare you can find many instances of this happening. Defenses travel better than offenses. It's possible our team could be off our game and lose to anybody, but if we play well we can beat anyone in the NFC. If we lose we will probably deserve to lose, but the W/L record shows we're tied for the best record in the NFL so it's not as if we're scrubs.

Matt Ryan will have to prove he can beat us in Dallas, if he does it you take your hat off to him. Same for any team if they're going to beat us they'll have to do it in Dallas where we have only 1 loss by 1 point, come prove yourselves.

I agree with this. Also, part of the reason they put up so many points is they didn't have a defense. We can keep Matt off the field by owning TOP and scoring points. We get a few turnovers/3 and outs and game could be over. I'm worried about surviving the divisional round though. That team may be tougher than the NFC championship opponent.
