Let’s Starting Thinking: Winning Season
With a win Sunday over the Buffalo Bills, the Falcons find themselves in an unfamiliar situation entering the final week of the season: A chance to secure back-to-back winning seasons in the last game of a given year… With a winning streak.
(Who says the Tampa Bay game isn’t important)?

Your Week 16 Television Maps
Two games remain in the Falcons 2009 season and they will likely be shown to smaller audiences. Such is the case for teams with no spot in the playoffs facing opponents with losing records.

Your Week 15 TV Distribution Maps
We’ve reached the point in the season where more games are played on days other than Sunday.

Falcons Keeping it Close
No team has established a formula for beating the undefeated New Orleans Saints in 2009. But through one half at the Georgia Dome the ailing Falcons may be on to something.
It starts by keeping the score close.

Your Week 14 Television Maps
I have a bad habit when it comes to these NFL television distribution maps.
