Atlanta Falcons

Once I think I am out, they pull me back in. The Falcons ended the season on fire. They saved Dan Quinn’s job and Quinn will be more of the CEO coach than a day to day game planner when it comes to the defense. They have the talent on offense. They made the Super Bowl a few years ago — and should have won it.

The Falcons just need to stay healthy. They don’t have a ton of areas where they need a quick fix. Matt Ryan won an MVP. Julio Jones is a consistent All-Pro. Maybe they should add some youth at running back, but Devonta Freeman is serviceable.
