The Falcons need 3+ turnovers to have a chance next week. The Seahawks mismanagement is what cost them the game, Atlanta was very very lucky to win.

All fair points, but doesn't it speak to something that they can pull off close wins? (as they did today)
Also, it's not their fault they play in the NFC South with piece of crap teams. They're schedule was obviously harder when the Saints were good and Cam Newton was playing out of his mind, but they still played very well in 2011.
Either way, I see there are clearly some question marks surrounding the Falcons from outside fans. I guess we'll have to see what next week brings.
