3. The Rookie Leads the Ravens Defense to a Championship

This choice isn’t for Falcon’s fans who can’t forgive the loss the Ravens handed the Falcons when their season was already well on the ropes. Still, it is the lesser of evils for the Falcons who hate New England and the Steelers even more.

With their veteran quarterback benched it is Lamar Jackson or bust for Baltimore. Jackson is a fun player to root for showing flashes that will remind fans of former Falcon great Micheal Vick.

Like Vick, Lamar must rely on his feet and pure athletic ability to help his offense win. Watching a tough defense take down Tom Brady and the Patriots or the Steelers would be an ending Atlanta could enjoy.

With either the Texans or Ravens winning the AFC Falcons would be spared watching the Patriots play in a Super Bowl in Atlanta bringing back haunting memories of two seasons ago.
