They cannot win in Seattle - Agreed

They cannot win in GB - Agreed with one caveat - In-climate weather conditions would slow down the pack-air attack and fuel Julio Beast mode...However this opens up the door for Lacy. I do think that GB let up a bit in the second half and that would most likely not happen again. Seattle or Dallas (in GB) maybe only teams that can keep up with GB.

Dallas isnt that good at home - This would be a shoot out...anyones game.

Detroit - ATL had Detroit down 21-0 with 8 min left in the 3rd and Mike Smith went to sleep. They can beat Detroit.

Carolina - Agreed - cant put the cart before the horse because if Cam is on and the Panther D is on, ATL can lose this game.

Something to think about going forward. I have thought all year long that SJ39 was slowing this offense down with his 3 yards and a cloud of dust output. Now he is out and its on Devonte Freeman and J. Rodgers both IMHO who add more diversity to the running game. Freeman has to be accounted for in space is a nightmare matchup for LBs out of the backfield. My point is, this offense just became more dangerous.
