As the 2024 NFL season approaches, the Atlanta Falcons face a challenging schedule that will test their mettle. After analyzing all 17 games, we have identified one guaranteed win and one guaranteed loss on the Falcons’ schedule.
In Week 3, the Falcons are predicted to suffer a loss against the powerhouse Kansas City Chiefs. With three Super Bowl wins in the past five seasons, the Chiefs, led by star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, present a formidable challenge for Atlanta. Adding to the difficulty, the Falcons’ new quarterback Kirk Cousins has struggled in prime-time games, and the team’s defense may struggle against the Chiefs’ potent offense.
On the other hand, in Week 16, the Falcons are expected to secure a win against the New York Giants. With doubts surrounding their performance and the Falcons likely fighting for a playoff spot, it is in favor of Atlanta. Additionally, playing at home in Mercedes-Benz Stadium gives them an added advantage in this matchup.
Overall, while there are both tough and winnable games on their schedule for 2024 NFL season’s first year of playoffs, these matchups against Kansas City Chiefs and New York Giants stand out as particularly significant. It will be interesting to see how well they perform during this upcoming season.
