1. The Falcons’ Offense Powers Them To A Big Win
In order for the Falcons to make the playoffs this season, the offense will need to put up huge numbers. They have talent on defense, but there are a lot of questions surrounding that side of the ball.
Thankfully, the offense has enough firepower to carry the load. It will power the Falcons to a big-time win over a Seahawks team that is expected to be a serious NFC contender.
Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, and Todd Gurley are going to be a dangerous “big three” in 2020. They aren’t going to win a Super Bowl, but the playoffs might very well be possible.
Atlanta will have quite a few reasons to be excited this season. They are on the right track, but still have work to do to get back into Super Bowl contention. A big Week 1 win will instill confidence moving forward, which is important considering the Falcons have a very tough schedule to start the year.
