"I think you can see the direction they're going," said television analyst Brian Billick, a former championship coach with the Baltimore Ravens, of the Falcons.

A humbling 33-14 home defeat at the hands of the Baltimore Ravens in the 2009 AFC Wild Card Playoffs continued the sequence, and a bitter setback to the rival New York Jets in last season's Divisional Round extended it.
