Let’s face it, as Ravens fans, we don’t want Super Bowl LI: to go to the New England Patriots. Can the Falcons win the game? Here are three reasons why they can:
The Atlanta Falcons have been a pleasure to watch on their voyage to Super Bowl LI. We spent the season complaining about the Ravens offense, and when we watch the Falcons, it’s good to see an explosive offense. It makes us jealous, but it’s still good to see. The Falcons make it look easy. They put up points left and right and they move the ball at will. The Falcons have these three things going for them:
1. An Overload Of Talent:
The Falcons have Matt Ryan playing at an MVP level. Ryan had an incredible season, completing 69.9 percent of his passes for nearly 5,000 yards. The MVP had 38 touchdowns and only seven interceptions this season. Ryan is not without players to throw the football to. He has Julio Jones as his best receiver. Jones is a big bodied phenomenon, who can catch anything thrown his way. Jones had 83 receptions for 1,409 yards and six touchdowns this season. The Falcons also have Mahomed Sanu and Taylor Gabriel as three speedy play-makers at the wide receiver position. Devonta Freeman is a stud in the backfield, both as a runner and a receiver.
The Falcons defense has improved dramatically over the course of the season. Vic Beasley is an exciting pass rusher who had 15.5 sacks this season. Deion Jones is a fantastic linebacker. The Falcons have as much talent as any team in the NFL. While much of it is on the offense, the defense is proving a lot of people wrong right now.
