The Falcons are nearly out of a very difficult opening stretch of the season, with the Bengals being all that stands between the team and a stretch of mediocre opponents. Win here and you’re 4-3 and ready to make a tremendous run. Lose here and...well, you’re only 3-4 and still ready to make a great run. A win would be awfully nice, however.

To get there, the Falcons will have to shut down a potent Bengals passing attack and otherwise do what they’ve done so well of late: Run the ball and come up with big stops and big plays on defense. If they can do so, they’ll leave Cincinnati with a victory that will bring them over .500 for the first time in a great many moons.
