PREVIEW NFC Wild card Atlanta vs LA Rams

The playoffs are set and ready to go.

The Atlanta Falcons will visit the LA Rams, the relocated franchise have made it to the playoffs in the second year in LA, and have clinched their division since 2003. Are they contenders? Can the defense stop Matt Ryan and Atlanta offense and make their way to the Divisional match up against the Eagles?

The  Falcons are No 6 seed and have won the last three games against division opponents. They still have Matt Ryan and a strong running game with Coleman and Freeman. However their offensive production is not the same as last year when they made it to the Super Bowl. And they will face one of the most dangerous offensive in the NFC. The LA Rams has MVP Candidate Todd Gurley and second year Jard Goff with a talented options of wide receivers.

In my opinion, the balanced offense of the LA Rams will take the game and will face the Eagles in the next game.
