Realistically do you expect the Falcons to drop the final two games?

Atlanta isn't very good this season so it's entirely possible that they lose out and choke the 6th seed away.

With that being said, I'm not stressing out about whether or not we make it. Nobody deserves the 6th seed this season. Detroit can't beat winning teams as usual, Dallas and Atlanta both have consistency issues, and Seattle is too banged up to make any legitimate noise in the playoffs. It's a dead spot. No matter who wins it, they are going one and done with ease. If Stafford can carry this entire team on his back and start a miracle playoff run all by himself en route to the Super Bowl, then he is the greatest QB of all time. Not even Tom Brady would be able to carry this team with how shitty our roster is so I am not expecting Stafford to do so either. We won't be contenders until 2019 at the earliest.
