Atlanta has struggled all year long.
Ryan has misfired all year long.
Their Oline has struggled and Ryan has been heavily pressured.
Receivers have not got as open.
Defense has been sporadic and porous both run and pass off and on.
But there’s this too.
Rams have averaged scoring 7 more points per game than the Falcons.
Rams have a 149 point differential between points scored and points allowed. Falcons……38.
Rams are generally healthy and rested. Falcons banged up.
Rams are 5-6 point favorites across the board.
My biggest concern is if it comes down to kicking FGs. Losing GZ is big. Atlanta beat the Panthers on FG kicking.
If the Rams play their A game and the Falcons play their A game, Rams win.
Rams would have to stub their toes and turn over the ball 3 times or more to lose, assuming Atlanta doesn’t turn it over at all.
Rams have played too well this year, and beaten good teams in big games, to be anything but confident.
Hard to see a Rams loss but this is the playoffs and anything can happen.
