They may not be quite ready to beat the New England Patriots in Super Bowl 51, but Sunday’s dominating win showed that the Falcons deserve to be taken seriously. “I told him ‘We want to play in the Super Bowl in 2019,’” Blank said on Sunday night. Even with a seriously injured toe, Julio Jones was a beast on Sunday, virtually unstoppable, though he was admittedly facing an average Packers defence. The Falcons defence still isn’t up to speed with the offence, but they’re catching up. The Falcons were the best team in the NFC, and now they’re not just Super Bowl participants.
