The Atlanta Falcons season is over aside from three meaningless games for Atlanta. As focus shifts to the playoff race who should Falcon’s fans be pulling for this postseason?

With the Atlanta Falcons season now shifting focus from playoff aspirations to an off-season of changes Falcon’s fans are left with little to cheer for in the playoffs. With the Super Bowl being played in Atlanta, fans will still pay attention to how the season plays out.

While the New Orleans Saints and New England Patriots will obviously be teams Falcons fans will love to root against, who should they cheer for?

Looking at the current playoff field there are plenty of teams Falcons fans should be pulling for once the playoff start.

While the field could change in the AFC the NFC appears to be close to locked with top teams in the AFC determined as well jockeying for position.

Aside from the Saints and Patriots, fans are unlikely to want to pull for the Steelers who put a beating on the Falcons earlier this season kicking off what has been a terrible losing streak for Atlanta.

With that in mind, here are three teams you should be pulling for when the playoffs kick-off this winter.
