After two disappointing seasons in a row, the Atlanta Falcons are flying somewhat under the radar as 2020 training camp begins.
The rest of the NFC South looks very different than it did a year ago, causing some national analysts to overlook the Falcons’ familiar pieces. One NFL Network analyst, former Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew, believes Atlanta is one of the most talented teams in the entire league.
During a training camp segment, Jones-Drew picked the Falcons as his surprise team in the NFC that will make the playoffs. Watch the clip below, as shared by NFL Network’s Twitter account.
“I think Dan Quinn and his @AtlantaFalcons are going to be my surprise team.” 👀
Who is YOUR “surprise” team in the NFC to make the playoffs this season? 👇
