Only two games per year are based on how well the team finished the previous year. For the Falcons, those two were at the beginning of the season with Philly and Seattle. They went 1-1 with those, same as the Bucs.<BR/><BR/>The rest of the season they had the same opponents as the Bucs and had almost the same results team-for-team. The difference was the games against the Bucs. If Atlanta sweeps Tampa, they are in playoff contention. Very tight games won in the last seconds... the difference is marginal. The Bucs need to find a way to widen that gap.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
