Falcons not counting themselves out of reaching playoffs
When looking at the NFL standings, the Atlanta Falcons 3-6 record would lead many to believe chances of reaching the playoffs are slim for the franchise, which last reached the postseason in 2017, however with the rest of the NFC South all with three wins as well, the Falcons finds themselves just a game back of the division lead and very much in contention to win the NFC South.
“We’re all at three wins and obviously not where we want to be at three and six but there’s nothing stopping us from still taking the division,” Falcons veteran All-Pro offensive tackle, Jake Matthews, said as he joined 92-9 The Game’s Carl Dukes and Mike Bell and explained, despite the Falcons’ sub-500 record, breaking their eight-year playoff drought is still achievable this season.
“That was also kind of part the conversation this week is that it’s time to double down and make a stand and if we stack a few wins, we can take this thing so, you know, I have to have that mindset,” Matthews said.
