Yes! The Atlanta Falcons are in the playoffs! After the win today over the Vikings and losses by both Dallas and Tampa Bay, the Falcons have clinched at least a wildcard spot in the NFC playoffs and a possibility of a NFC South division championship tie if Carolina (11-3) loses tonight and next week and Atlanta (10-5) wins next week. A little gleam of hope as Carolina has to play the Giants (11-3 overall, 6-1 home) this week at New York and the Saints (8-7 overall, 6-1 home)next week at New Orleans (on a winning streak) with Carolina a 3-3 on the road.
I feel sorry for the Detroit Lions and the ignoble honor of being the first team to be 0-15. And next week doesn’t look any better with facing Green Bay at Green Bay (5-9 overall, 3-4 home). They may end up in history as the first team to go 0-16.
