NFL analyst: Falcons may have saved their season vs. Packers

It's a new day in Atlanta, where the Falcons are coming off one of the biggest wins in recent franchise history. Last Thursday night, they upset the Green Bay Packers on the road, breaking a 13-year streak of the Packers winning their home openers.

More importantly, the win gave the Falcons new life and put them right back into the thick of a crowded if mediocre NFC South race.
