The Atlanta Falcons will have a chance to end a brutal losing streak when they host the New England Patriots on Thursday Night Football.
The Falcons have lost their last SIX games to the Patriots, with their last win coming way back in 1998. For reference, the TDs scored in that game were by Jamal Anderson, Chuck Smith, and O.J. Santiago.
Matt Ryan is 0-4 in his career against New England (including playoffs). The Patriots are one of only two teams in the NFL that Ryan has never beaten, the Steelers being the other.
The two teams haven't played since the 2017-18 season, and the Patriots have the all-time edge in the series with nine wins compared to six losses

If the Falcons can win on Thursday Night it would be their first win at Mercedes-Benz Stadium this season and would move them back into a playoff spot for the moment.
