NFL Power Rankings, Week 14: Eagles look to keep NFC East race interesting

26. Atlanta Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons can officially hit the panic button after suffering their fourth loss in a row on Sunday to the Baltimore Ravens, as this team looks like they’re going to miss out on the playoffs for the first time in three years. After impressive outings over the last two seasons, the Falcons seemed like a strong candidate to emerge as one of the top teams to beat in the NFC, which actually looked like the case at one point back in October.

Losing four games in a row when Atlanta has an offense loaded with weapons for Matt Ryan to work with like Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley is beyond frustrating to see since this team should have little trouble putting up major points each week. Nothing against the Ravens since there’s a reason why their defense ranks near the top of the league, but only scoring 16 points in Week 13 was pathetic.

Does this mean Dan Quinn’s job could be in jeopardy? While the argument can be made that he deserves another chance, Quinn’s hot seat has certainly been heating up in recent weeks, and faces enormous pressure to prove his value during this final stretch, even if the Falcons are on the verge of missing out on the playoffs.
