Players To Watch: Atlanta Falcons
The Eagles begin the postseason against the defending NFC champions. Here are the Atlanta Falcons to watch.

QB Matt Ryan surpassed 4,000 yards passing during the regular season and managed to complete 70 percent of his passes against the Rams in the Wild Card Round.

WR Julio Jones didn't get into the end zone that much in 2017, but reach hit paydirt against the Rams. In total, Jones caught nine passes for 94 yards in the Wild Card Round.

Injuries prevented RB Devonta Freeman from crossing the 1,000-yard threshold this season, but he looked to be in top form against the Rams.

LB Vic Beasley Jr. was one of three Falcons to record a sack during the Wild Card Round.

CB Desmond Trufant missed Atlanta's run to the Super Bowl last year due to injury, but is back to playing at a Pro-Bowl level with five tackles in the Wild Card Round.

Rookie DE Takkarist McKinley recorded six sacks during the regular season and garnered another during the Wild Card Round.

CB Robert Alford was targeted eight times in the Wild Card, giving up only two receptions for 18 yards.

Ageless K Matt Bryant made all four of his field goals during the Wild Card with the longest being from 54 yards out.
