Falcons travel to take on improving Rams

Sam Bradford is on a roll at home.
(Brian Blanco / Associated Press)

The storyline
Recent first-round QBs Matt Ryan and Sam Bradford look to build playoff credentials. Both defenses are vastly underrated. The Falcons are trying to play as well on road as at home, but the Rams are proving hard to beat at home.

Why you should watch
Ryan is poised to join the league's elite. This could be a matchup of division winners. The Rams must find a way to slow down Roddy White.

Did you know?
When Ryan has at least a 100 passer rating, the Falcons are 13-0. ... Atlanta is tied for the NFL lead with four fourth-quarter comeback wins this year. ... The Rams have won four consecutive games at home. ... St. Louis' Danny Amendola has a receiving touchdown in three straight games.
